Week beginning 1st March 2021 - Healthy Eating 🥗
Tuesday 2nd March
Wednesday 3rd March
We should now be familiar with the information text about Healthy Eating. Today we’re going to look at key words in the text
and explain what these words mean. We must make sure that we find how the word is used in the text as sometimes the same word has two or more different meanings. When this is the case, only by looking at how the word is used in a sentence or paragraph can we find out what the word means which is why it’s so important to read around words.
Learning Objective: To explain the meaning of words in context
I can remember to:
- Skim and scan to find the key word in the text
- Read around the word to understand the meaning
- Explain clearly the meaning of the word
