Dragon Class Stage 1 English

Week 7Please use this document to complete your English each day.

You will need to write the date and WALT (We Are Learning To) into

your home learning book and then carefully write straight into your

book.

There is no need to print anything this week as you can use your

workbook to record your work in.

Monday 18th May 2020 WALT use adjectives to describe nouns

Read the information sheet on Adjectives and then read the story ‘Whale Words’ (see ‘Our

Learning, Week 7’).

What adjectives were in the text? Big, massive, grey, blue, etc.

Monday 18th May 2020 WALT use adjectives to describe nouns

Pick any whale from the story and write some sentences to describe it in your work book.

• Think of some really good adjectives that

you could use to describe your whale. You

can choose some adjectives from the word

list to help you.

• You could describe the whole whale or just

part of it – its eye, its flipper, its skin, etc.

Tuesday 19th May 2020 WALT describe a whale using the word ‘like’

• Read through the ‘Whale Words’ story

again and then choose another whale.

• Write two or three sentences in your

work book using the work ‘like’ to

describe your chosen whale.

Word Mat

We can use comparisons to

describe something using the word

‘like’.

Here are some examples:

• Its skin was blue like a summer’s

sky.

• The whale jumped out of the sea

like a rocket.

Wednesday 20th May 2020 WALT write an acrostic poem

• Click on the following link and watch the video https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z4mmn39/articles/ztdvw6f

• Write your own acrostic using any whale from the ‘Whale Words’ story. You could use coloured pens to

make your topic word stand out or cut letters out of a magazine or a newspaper if you want to make

it look more effective!

Writing an acrostic

1. Write the letters of your whale’s name down

the left hand side of the paper. Use capital

letters.

2. Now for each letter create a line that carries

on from the letter and says something about your

whale.

3. See if you can include some adjectives in your

lines.

* Remember to use our sound card to help with

spelling.
