Hello Year 3. Welcome back for another week. We have been busily preparing packs for you to take home which will be ready soon. I think the English part of the pack  I will go through on here, so be ready. Remember 1 or 2 hours of good work is better than 6 or 7 hours of not happy learning.

I am wary that some people may be in different places of the white rose. So work through slowly.

English – The Green Ship – The final day….

I love this book. Did you love it? Why DID you love it or why did you not love it?

Why now do you think the book is called the Green Ship?

Can you write a few sentences to review this book…..

Grammar…..

Remember when you are writing inverted commas they need to be at the start of what is said and at the end….Here are some examples from the story:

“What would the captain have done?” she said.

“There’s going to be a storm,” shouted Mrs Tredegar. “Come on crew, into the wheelhouse”

Look carefully where the ” are in the sentences. Try to write your own sentence from something Mrs. Tredegar said.

Final day of the story! Three by the Sea….

Can you write a book review? This is one of my favourite stories, if I am honest. I really like it as I am confused whether the Fox is a good character or a bad character.
