I am revising the grammar concepts: doing verbs and plural nouns. 

I am learning about adverbs. 

I know I have learnt it when I use adverbs correctly in sentences. 

Let’s Begin

• Read the poem below. Read with expression and perform the actions! 
• Then you are ready to write out the answers only, in your green exercise book. 
• Rule a line under any previous work to rule off. 
• Write today’s date next to the margin: 26th August 2021 
• Write the heading: How 
• Write the number of the question in your book and then write your answer next to it. 

• Now watch this video before going on to the next activity

Topic: Connectives

I am learning to use connectives to sequence ideas or events in a text.

I know I can do it when I use connectives correctly in sentences.

Today we will start by revising nouns and verbs.

Study the examples in the table below to help you recall what you have learnt at school.

 Independent Activity

1. Open your green lined book.
2. Rule a line under any previous work to rule off.
3. Write today’s date.
4. Write the heading “Connectives”

There is no need to print out the following worksheets.

Read the text and questions a few times till you understand them.

Then you are ready to write out the answers only, in your green exercise book.

Write the number of the question in your book and then write your answer next to it.

Watch this fun TIME SEQUENCER video before going on to the next sheet.

This video is a good one to watch again when you reach the challenge activity ‘TRY IT YOURSELF” at the bottom of the sheet.
