Today we watched and unpicked a section of the Jungle Book film, thinking about how Mowgli feels in certain situations. We got into role, becoming Mowgli, making his feelings come to life. We were then introduced to our new writing genre, a diary entry. We started to think about what a diary is and the features needed. We explored a model text and then unpicked the different features. We talked about how a diary is different to our previous genres. We talked about our own experiences of diaries and if we write them at home. We then looked at Mrs McClare’s example of Mowgli’s diary and what was included. This afternoon we have moved onto some grammar learning- using time adverbials. We tried to build sentences together and with our partners. We will be applying everything we have learnt in our grammar lesson tomorrow.
