English

We are going to be reading The Railway Children by E . Nesbit. Linked to this, the children will explore and create texts in a number of different forms including diary entries, explanations and image poetry.

We will be continuing with spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPAG) work linked to GIMME 5. This includes punctuation, conjunctions, adverbials, different types of sentences and added description. Children are encouraged to think about these elements in each piece of writing they do across the curriculum.
