This week our grammar is an integrated part of our daily lessons. We will learn about expanded noun phrases and rhetorical questions.

In English this week we will work towards creating an advertisement for the soup which the children made last week.

Day 1 – Think of a name for your soup. Your name could include alliteration (e.g super soup) a rhyme (e.g chic leak soup) or a description (e.g spicy potato and chilli pepper soup.) Put the name of your soup in the middle of a spider diagram. Write around all the positive words you can think of to describe your soup (e.g healthy, crunchy, delicious).
Day 2 -Follow the lesson on expanded noun phrases from BBC bitesize.

Children should continue to read as much as possible. Don’t forget we have a free trial from Reading Planet which allows us to allocate appropriate leveled books for each child.

The child should use their first name as their log-in and their class name as their password (either Blackfriars or Waterloo). They will need the centre ID 211526. The website address is;
