Today's Lesson
Spelling
Take the spelling test by asking your student to write the words they have been learning this week.
Main Activity
Today your student will look at the first draft of their description that they wrote in the last lesson. Using a different coloured pen, they need to edit at least THREE sentences. They should be looking for:
- Spelling errors
- Punctuation errors (capital letters and full stops)
- Synonyms (words that are similar but more interesting.
Encourage your student to read their draft aloud to help them spot errors.
When they are happy with their description, they will need to write out a neat, error-free final draft to be submitted for Assignment 8. Encourage them to use their best handwriting and to take their time.
Please submit their edited first draft, description plan, improved sentences, and their final draft.
Please also make sure that the Grammar and Reading tasks are submitted at the same time, as part of their assignment.
