Tuesday
Today we will finish off Review 10.
Turn to page 41 and 42.
Today we are going to identify, discuss and collect our favourite words and phrases that are used to persuade.
Let's take a look at an example together:
Join our famous clowns, Mooky and Mr Boo, as the world celebrates 250 years of the circus! The Blackpool Tower Circus will host this 'once in a lifetime' celebration in style with a mezmerising show! Phenomenal acts, who have been performing in circuses for generations, will leave you in awe as they perform death-defying stunts that will excite and delight the whole family.
What is the purpose of using the adjective 'famous' to describe the clowns?
What would the phrase sound like without the word?
Join our clowns, Mooky and Mr Boo
Why does it mention that the world is celebrating 250 years of circus?
Now, let's look through our other examples and write a list of the words or phrases we think are there to persuade the reader.
Can you choose an appropriate method for testing a material for a particular property?
In the next Science lesson we are going to go to the STEAM hub to investigate which material will make the best tea bag for Uncle Astro.
Before we go you need to predict which of the materials we are going to test will work the best and why you think that. We also need to think as Scientists on how we can test which is the best materials to make a tea bag.
