We went on a trip to Trafalgar square to find the King’s crown, which has gone missing just before his coronation. There was lots of beeping black taxi’s, red buses and shoppers in the square.

Writing in MI
MI have now written their first 2 plot points of their 3rd person suspense narrative. Their setting descriptions included some great figurative language and their second plot point introduced an unknown threat that started to approach their main character. We can’t wait to write our next plot point!

Relative clauses in MI
Our grammar lesson started with a mini assessment that challenged our pace and got us thinking about different types of grammar. We then moved onto looking at relative clauses along with relative pronouns. There are some great supportive role models in MI who continue to get smart every lesson. Our grammar knowledge continues to improve every day.
Fun with phonics
In our learning labs this week we have have some phonic challenges to apply our knowledge of letters and sounds. Oliver was so proud of himself when he wrote ’panic’ independently. Its been great fun 🔤
The tunnel experience lesson 📖
To hook is into our new writing we looked into our new book – The Tunnel.
We pieced together the book front cover, predicted what might happen, crawled through a tunnel and acted out how the character might be feeling.
A new writing unit in MI
Today we started our new writing unit where we built lots of language to support our first plot point. We used the lenses well to build ideas 🙂
Chotting for our character description
We have started to gather y6 quality vocabulary, phrases and figurative language to help us with our writing. We focussed on the appearance of the character from our newspaper article and then applied some of the chotting we did to our own sentences.
Character descriptions in MI

Chotting in MI
Today we started thinking about our next piece of writing, a character description. We focussed on the appearance of the character from our newspaper article, chotting lots of different language and vocabulary that we could use. We then started to think about figurative language and built some ideas in mini crews. We then applied some of the chotting we did to our own sentences. We will use these tomorrow when we start to write our plot point.
