Task 5
Creative Writing Task - Your creative writing task this week is based on the poem ‘In the land of the Flibbertigibbets’. Read the poem or follow the internet link below for an audio version. Introduce yourself to the characters created. Have you heard of these characters before? Complete the word patterns sheet, which concentrates on alliteration.

Use the WAGOLL to help you write your own poem. I've underlined each of the characters, you can create your own crazy names. 

I've highlighted the alliteration in yellow, you can change these for your own! Remember alliteration is where the words start with the same sound e.g. Jiggle & Jive. 
I've also highlight some rhyming pairs in pink. Challenge yourself to change these to your own rhyming verbs. 

See below for examples and a WAGOLL (what a good one looks like).

You can send your work back to the teachers by logging into Google Classrooms with your child's HWB login. . 

As usual please continue to read at home with your child. BugClub reading books are available online and teachers can monitor usage and update when new books need issuing.

Numeracy
