Grammar in MI
Today we consolidated our learning on semi colons. We are getting much more confident when using a semi colon in our writing. We will apply our learning to our next piece of writing later in the week.
Final redrafts in MI
Wow, wow, wow! Some incredible writing in MI this week 🙂 Children have edited and redrafted their diary entries and have shown real dedication and resilience doing this. They have really shown such positive attitudes, using their target grids to ensure they are using all of the features needed. Super proud MI 🙂
Writing features – grammar
During our writing day, we have been unpicking some text to identify adverbs, prepositional phrases and subordinate clauses. We worked with our shoulder partner to find these and then created a bank of adverbials to support us in our writing.
We discussed that it was important that when selecting an adverbial for our writing that we are able to demonstrate how it would fit within the writing.
Diary entry 📔📝
This week, Crew Mcloughlin have been busy writing their diary entry independently. They are writing from a 10 year olds girls perspective in 1963, who’s dad has made her attend Martin Luther Kings speech that morning. All children have thoroughly planned, used the learning environment to effectively support them and produced beautiful work in the process. I think this is our best writing yet and I cannot wait to share the final redrafts next week!
Setting description
Today, we have started our writing unit for Case study 2 which will involve a setting description for the ’I have a dream’ speech by Martin Luther King.
We have spent time today starting to use the lens to generate ideas for aspects we could write about and some ideas for figurative language. In our next lesson, we’ll be starting to put these ideas into complete sentences so we have had practice and opportunities to magpie from our peers.
Working hard in our independent writing!
I am so proud of how hard crew marsh worked in their independent writing. They used all of their phonic knowledge to help them 😃
Planning our independent write in MI
Today we continued to plan our independent diary entry. We thought about the gold and green targets we had created and started to build some of the sentences we could use in our writing. We added these to post it notes which we will refer to when we start writing.
Today MI finish PP2
