Reading
This week we are working on our inference skills.
Read the third text and tell me what you can infer about Eliza, her job, her family, the mill from the text.
Writing
Yesterday we learnt about paragraphs.
Today I want you to have a go writing about Eliza and her family visiting the countryside for a day, using paragraphs.
- We decided each of these points could be the basis for a paragraph.
- Waking up
- Eating breakfast
- Riding on the horse and cart to the countryside
- Lying in the long grass
- Helping grandfather to collect flowers
Could you use a time adverbial to start each paragraph? Can you add some of Eliza’s thoughts and feelings in each paragraph? Can you add some expanded noun phrases/ adjectives/ similes/ onomatopoeia to describe the setting for each paragraph?
Remember all of the paragraphs do not need to be the same length!!!
