Literacy Work - w/b Monday 9th May 2022

For our next Big Writing we will once again be basing our writing on Ted Hughes’ ‘The Iron Man.’ We will be writing a newspaper report describing the first sighting of The Iron Man.  This is a two week writing unit, so we will complete our final Big Write on Friday 20th May.

It would be useful if you could discuss and practise the following with your child:

· using the word of the week ‘surreal’

· Talk about the features of a newspaper report: the headline, subheaded paragraphs, eye-witness quotes.

· Try to think of a catchy headline to describe the first sighting of the mysterious Iron Man.

Many thanks,


Mrs Vaqueiro
