Ms Spain's Literacy Group Work 20th April - 24th April 2020

Ms.Spain’s literacy group:

Continue to do:

•Spellbound everyday

•SNIP Booklets everyday

•If you can, pick a short book from OxfordOwl (instructions on how to use this are under the reading section on the home page of the school website) - read a few pages everyday and try have the book read by Friday. If you have a different book at home that you’d like to read that is fine too.

•At the end of the week - write a book review on the book you read. 
You can use the copy book that was delivered to you.
Make sure you have your title (name of the book) and date.

Try to write at least half a page, here are some sentence starters (these are just suggestions):
This book was written by ...
This book was about ...
At the start of the book ....
At the end of the story....
I liked/disliked this book because ...
My favorite part was when...
I liked this character because...

I would love to see your work so please share what you can on see-saw! Any questions, let me know :) Hope you have a great week!
