This week, we will continue using the Oak Academy for our English lessons. On their website, you will watch a video of a lesson taught by a teacher. Then, you be given some activities to have a go at. 

 

These lessons will build up skills throughout the unit and you will produce a final written piece in lesson 5. Use the button in the right hand corner of the screen to navigate between sections of the lesson. You can pause the video and come back to it at any point.  

 

If you have not finished last week's lessons, please finish those off first before starting a new unit. Remember to take a photo of your final piece every Friday to email in. 

 

Don't forget the brilliant e-books on Bug Club.

Monday 8th June 

 

To warm your brain up this morning, start off by doing some Doodle Spellings or Nessy (if you usually do Nessy at school).

 

For this lesson, watch the video and use the buttons on the bottom of the screen to navigate between activities. When you have listened to the input, answer the questions neatly on lined paper. Then, play the video again to check your answers. At the end of the lesson, complete the quiz to see how well you have done. Don't forget capital letters and full stops!
