English
In English we will start the year by learning to write instructions. We will learn about the structure of instructions and will focus on how to use imperative verbs and adverbs.
The children will also be learning to use the reading toolkit to develop their understanding of different texts that they read.
Good readers:
- Use their background knowledge and experiences.
- Ask questions
- Breakdown and repair words using phonic and spelling strategies
- Clarify meaning of words and phrases
- Make predictions
- Use inference to find the true meaning
- Visualise making a picture in their head
- Summarise by putting together the key parts.
Practise using the tool kit when reading books at home. Use the e-book library link below:
