Active grammar in MI

19th April 2023Stacey McClare

Today we looked at clauses, we thought about what makes a main clause and what makes a subordinate clause. We then moved to different sides of the classroom to show if parts of sentences were main clauses or subordinates clauses. We then moved onto looking at conjunctions, both coordinating and subordinating. We thought about how different conjunctions change the meaning of sentences then applied our knowledge to different sats style questions. Some great progress this week in our grammar sessions 🙂 Great work MI 🙂

MI apply skills in reading

18th April 2023Stacey McClare

Today we continued to work on the pace of our reading with a 10 minute do now activity to start the lesson. This really pushed us to read the text quickly along with using our skimming and scanning skills to find information quickly. We then moved onto a sats paper where we practised our test technique. We worked on some questions independently then used a demonstration comprehension session for some of the more challenging questions. Tomorrow we will unpick some of the 3 mark questions further using APE to support our answers.

Translation and reflection

18th April 2023Stacey McClare

Today in maths we learnt how we translate a shape, we described the shapes position then translated it. We also looked at how we reflect a shape across the x and y axis. Some great work MI 🙂
