Reading
Toucans I have included on the blog a short Reading Task on Volcanoes for you to complete today.
Toucans, we would love you to read a little each day of the school book you have or a book you have been reading at home.
If you continue to record your reading in your diary and get an adult to sign your diary each time you read, you will still be able to collect your raffle tickets when we are back in school.
Spellings
This week we will be looking at the spellings – Plural Nouns
We will focus on the last word today - deer
Write a silly short story using this word at least 5 times.
E.g. Wandering along the path to Asda, I suddenly stopped! There in the distance were some deer wearing Santa hats. The deer were laughing and jostling with each other. Each of the deer also had a tutu on. Where did these deer come from? What were the deer doing her?
Create a graffiti wall to practise spelling all of today’s spellings so you are ready for our test tomorrow.
Spelling words: yourselves, knives, bookshelves, loaves, potatoes, volcanoes, geese, women, wolves, deer,
