English

So we have spent a day on looking at how to link sentences using conjunctions and we have done some brainstorming for your persuasive argument.  Today, I would like you to start building up a bank of vocabulary that you can use in your persuasive argument. You will need; sentence openers, emotive vocabulary, imperative verbs and maybe a rhetorical question.

If you have managed to login to the pupil area see if you can add your ideas to the Y4 Presuasion Discussion so we can all take a look and share our creativity. 

As it is well-being wednesday around the country make a list of your favourite activities - what do you enjoy doing? It might be spending some time playing football in the garden, or singing along to your favourite song. Whatever it might be make sure you put aside some time to do one thing you enjoy today.

Keep smiling - and don't get up to too much considering it's April fools day!
