Let's start the day with some brain exercise - How many challenges can you complete today?

WALT: creating a list using bullet points

List poems 
Now we have had some fun making a list yesterday, I’d like to introduce you to the Japanese poet Sei Shonagon. She wrote list poems. Lists are a great way to write as you can have a long list or a short list.  Sei wrote hundreds of lists about shiny things, soft things, hard things, worries, things that make her annoyed, sad things, things that worried her and so on.  

Now it's your turn.... I would like you to make lists of secret, special and delicate things.

Here is a list of twelve things.  Sort them into two groups – delicate and strong.

 
leaf skeleton    lace    butterfly wing   spider’s leg    eyeball    fishing line      bubble    snowflake      dried seaweed    cat’s tail snake skin      cloud    rainbow    electricity       elastic band 

Delicate things are frail, fragile and easily broken. What would be your list of delicate things?

Listing ideas and words is often a good way to start writing.

Look around your house and gather lots of items or ideas very rapidly. I will give you 5 min.

You won’t use all the ideas when you write. Jot down in your home learning journal, the names of the items in a list form using bullet points like this:

• glass
• my iPad 

Handwriting

Do this at the back of your book as we always do. Take your time and do one line of each word.

Reading

Write a new title in your Home Learning Journal to separate your learning tasks.

Read through this fact file about Humpback whales and answer the questions in your home learning book. Please write down the question and the answer.
