English - w/b Monday 3rd October 2022


For our English work over the next two weeks, we will be drawing on the knowledge we have gained in our recent history lessons in order to write a factual report all about Ancient Egypt.

In order to support your child at home, you could:

1.      Practise using the word of the week, fascinatingly

2.    Think about how information is presented in non-fiction text, focusing on organisational devices such as subheaded paragraphs and glossaries.  Why are these used?  How do they help the reader?

3.     Talk to your child about what life might have been like in Ancient Egypt.  You could explore some of the BBC Bitesize resources online here.

Any work that your child completes at home can be used to support their literacy work in class.

Thank you.

Mrs Vaqueiro
