Writing

This term we will be learning to write to inform. This will include learning how to write instructions, non-chronological reports and recounts.

Within these types of writing we will continue to focus on the following key areas:

Letter formation
Writing a sentence
Saying our ideas before writing them
Using a capital letter for a name, place or start of a sentence
Using a full stop to demarcate the end of a sentence
Using finger spaces between words
Use the word 'and' to join words and clauses
Using our phonics to spell unknown words

Our writing this term will include writing to inform by writing a recount, a report and instructions. Each of these types of writing will enable us to practice the main objectives listed above.

Diaries

We started our writing to inform term of writing by finding out what a diary is and how they are written. We then wrote our own diary entry about our wow day and also in role as Handa, telling her diary about her sleepover!
