Levelling up

During the V.C.O.P session the children improved boring sentences. After choosing two random objects they had to write a sentence and using the pyramid, try to improve it.

If you would like your own pyramid for home here is a link to one to print out.

Notice how the sentences improves

What could you write for this combination?

Thinking

How about this combination?

Sharing ideas

Can you think of a super sentence?

Sharing ideas

I am really pleased with all your work this morning, you created some brilliant sentences with "ly or ly-ing" openers. 

A special mention to Keaton and Olivia.

Here is a game you can try over the weekend.

Let me know how you get on.

Have a great weekend, see you on Monday.

p.s. Don't forget to learn your lines and the song for assembly.
