if you would like to you could take pictures of your favourite game or write down some of your mathematical working in your homework book.

Literacy homework – 8.1.13

 

This week we have started learning about non-chronological reports. The first stage of writing a report is to research what you would like to write about.

Which animal interests you but you don’t know much about? Perhaps it’ll be a ferocious polar bear, the giant blue whale or the slow sloth.

Choose one animal and research interesting facts about that animal. Then, in your homework book write a list of facts (remembering the difference between fact and opinion!). Think about the layout of your work and use numbers OR bullet points to organise your list.
