Good morning Willow Class.
English
LI – to plan a chapter of a story.
Task 1. Have a look at the words below; do you know what they mean?
scout, hollow, trotting, loomed, soundly, jaunt
Complete a chart like the one below (as you did on Monday):
Word | What I think it means | Dictionary Definition | Synonyms |
Use a dictionary to find the definitions.
Task 2. Now read Chapter 3 of the extract; you may wish to print it out if you can: https://www.lovereadin g4kids.co.uk/book/7529/The-Secret-Lake-by- Karen-Inglis.html
Spot the vocabulary that you have been exploring. Think about the meaning of the words in the sentences in which they appear. What do you think is going to happen next? Will Tom and Stella find Harry? Where is the water coming from? Will they have an adventure? What will they find? Will they tell anyone or keep it a secret? Will the gardener catch them? If you can, discuss these questions with someone at home or otherwise, just think about them.
Task 3. You are going to plan the next chapter of the story today before writing your chapter tomorrow.
Consider the questions above. Think about the title of the book. How does this tie in with the story? How can you make your story exciting?
Plan your chapter using a method that you have used at school, e.g. a story mountain or a story board, etc. Please choose one of the templates below to help you plan your chapter. You can either print this out or copy it into your Home Learning Book.

There are then three activities to do, one online and two paper-based. If you can print the sheet out then do so but otherwise, work straight into your Home Learning Book.
Well done for working so hard today! Remember to send me examples of the work you have produced and check if you have any issues or questions. ‘See’ you all tomorrow!
Hi, on geography the first worksheet is restricted so I cannot go on it.
Hi Mary. Sorry about that. It must be an issue with the BBC website. Just do what you can without it.

It’s because Twinkl have stopped their free access for you guys at home 🙁 They didn’t actually tell anyone about this – including the BBC it seems! x
