Thursday
Creative Writing
Writing informally and for pleasure is really important, and could be done daily in the form of a diary (Juniors can draw a picture and label it).

As our Creative Challenge this week is a Bake Off, it is a good opportunity to revise procedural writing.

Video for procedural writing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvGeBcfysDo Discuss the different words we use in procedural writing, and the different sections. Look at a recipe and find the title, what you need (ingredients) and what to do (method). Get your child to write their own procedural writing for a recipe

Template: https://www.twinkl.ie/resource/t-t-18355-writing-instructions-recipe (Juniors can draw the steps or maybe write a word or two of each step and you write the rest)

1st Class: Spellwell activity d
