Good afternoon everyone!

In English the children role played the story of ‘The Enormous Turnip‘  and practised the  recurring language, we also discussed the punctuation in the story. They created a detailed storyboard and sequenced the story.

Next week, the children will write their own version of ‘The Enormous Turnip’. They will change the characters and repeated phrases and they will include commas and exclamation marks.
