Week 3

Monday 18th January - today I would like you to watch the video clip about the spelling rule for this week (silent b) https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/english-ks2-wonderful-words-silent-letter-b/zrxc8xs

Then I would like you have a go at finding the following words from our new book in an online dictionary. Then try to find them in a thesaurus to find examples of words that mean the same e.g. old is the same as elderly, historical, worn

Words to find!

• ancient
• jostle
• scroll
• lurch

Write out the words in your exercise books and write their definition. You can also draw a picture to help you remember the word. See Miss Mabbott's example below to help!

Tuesday 19th January - read chapters 4 + 5 of Flat Stanley and talk to a grown up about what has happened in the chapters afterwards.  There is a slideshow of the pages below, or a copy of the book in pdf form if you can't see images. Alternatively, you can also listen to Miss Mabbott reading them to you in the video link below!

Wednesday 20th January - today I would like you to imagine you are Flat Stanley. I would like you to create a table of the positive things (good) and negative things (bad) about being flat. How many different things can you think of? Which is the best thing about being flat? Which would be the worst thing about being flat?
