Good Morning Year 4,
Watch the video to get started with todays lesson where we continue to look in our Goblinology book. Get your imagination caps on for todays learning!!
Just to clarify from this video
Noun = Place, person or object
Adjective = Describing word
Verb = Doing word E.g. shouts, walks, waddles
Adverb= A word that modifies a verb E.g. quietly, slowly, quickly
An adverb gives more information about a verb. Watching the video back I didn't make this too clear I apologise!
So for example: The Water Goblin slowly (adverb) waddles (verb).
WOW! I've been blown away by your phenomenal Goblins!! I really enjoyed looking at your work- What fantastic imaginations you all have and what great descriptive words you've used to describe them. Take a look to see what your classmates came up with! (Click to enlarge)
Wednesday
L/O: To identify and make different contractions.
I can remember to:
-explain that a contraction is a shortened form of two words.
-understand an apostrophe is used to show you omitted or left out a letter.
-identify mistakes and where an apostrophe should go in a contracted word.
Happy Wednesday Year 4,
