Thursday 23rd April
Work through your spellings and handwriting again (see if someone at home will test you on a few spellings to see how you are getting on). There is then a set of SPaaG questions and you can continue working on your WW2 research and writing project.
Tuesday 21st April
Continue with the spellings below and try using some of the techniques you have learnt at school e.g. pyramid or colour coding the letters.
Carry on researching your project about the outbreak of WW2. You could get thinking about what sub-headings the sections could have for example: Who was involved? What was the deciding factor in Britain declaring war? If you are using Purple Mash, you should be able to input images.
Below are some SPaG and sentence building tasks.
This sentence is taken from the Nowhere Emporium by Ross MacKenzie (you read this in Year 5 with Miss Taylor).
The shop from nowhere arrived with the dawn on a crisp November morning.

Use the sentence below to answer the questions.
Murph hated the new house more than he could remember hating anything.
Finish the sentences below making sure that what you have written makes sense with the conjunction you have been given:

Writing
On the Learning Challenge link, I have included a writing task that involves researching and recording information about the outbreak of WW2. You can complete this on paper in the form of a poster or fact sheet or using 2Write on Purple Mash. It is entirely up to you. I would suggest that you write a section each day making sure you take your time to gather the information you need.
I have included a checklist to show you some of the things you should include. You can share them with me on Purple Mash or on Twitter @j_foster1905 or @WestgladePS
