English
Our English lessons follow The LIteracy Company's 'Pathways to Write' from EYFS to Year 6. We begin with a Gateway- a 'hook' session to intrigue young writers. We use objects, people, images or role-play to stimulate questions about the half-term's text. We introduce pupils to the new writing skills and provide opportunities to practise and apply the skill. The writing tasks include character descriptions, poetry, dialogue between characters, fact files or diary entries.
• Join words using and
• Sequence sentences to form short narratives
• Punctuate sentences using capital letters and full stops
• Use capital letters for names of people
