Poetry Week!

 

 

POETRY WEEK!

 

Next week is Poetry Week so for your homework this week we would like you to find a poem and learn it by heart. Make sure you practise reading the poem aloud with lots of expression so that you can perform it to the class.

Computer Games

In ICT, we will be designing our own educational games using a programme called Scratch.  This week, we want you to think about any games that you already play; for example, on Mathletics.

Write about your favourite games:

What are they?
Why do you enjoy playing them?
What do you learn from them?
Do you have any ideas for your own educational game?

Spend about 20 minutes writing, and remember to think carefully about your sentences before you write them!

Please either write your homework on paper or send your blog online by Friday 26th September.

Traction Man Explores!

 

 

Imagine you are the size of Traction Man and are exploring our school garden. Write from the point of view of the character using the first person (I). What does it look, feel and smell like?

Include lots of adjectives and try to add similes and metaphors. Remember to think, say, write and check!

Your Blog Homework must be ccompleted by Friday 19th September 2014
