Phonics
This week we are looking at the "f" sound (see Tuesday's Literacy page). For today's activity, choose some of your words and put them into sentences of your own (at least four sentences please).
Main activity
For some questions, you'll need to use a dictionary. If you haven't got a dictionary at home, use an online dictionary such as Oxford Learner's Dictionaries https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/
**A Martian Comes to Stay - higher level task**
Watch the video below where Mrs Bell reads through today's comprehension passage with you.
Before you begin to answer the questions, it's important to think carefully about the vocabulary which has been used in the passage and to clarify the meaning of the trickier words. Look up the meaning of each of these words in your dictionary and discuss the meaning with someone at home. You don't have to write out the meaning but do talk about it please.
If there are any other words which you don't understand, please find out their meaning too!
Then read through the questions carefully and write out your answers on a separate page. Don't forget to write in full sentences please and look back at the passage to find the evidence. Check your spelling and please include the necessary punctuation including capital letters, full stops, apostrophes, etc.
