Our current English text
This is our current text for English, in this three-week Writing Root, for Pig the Pug by Aaron Blabey, the children will have the opportunity to explore character motives and feelings before researching a selection of animals and going on to write their own-version of the narrative. They will then create a ‘How to be a …’ guide and create this for a chosen pet. The sequence of learning includes regular opportunities for use of phonic knowledge and also embeds some of the spelling requirements for year 1. It supports the children into writing for a range of audiences and purposes.
