This week we will be looking at a new story!
English Task
This week we are going to look at a story but, we are not going to begin reading it today! I would like your child to do some detective work first.
Please see the worksheet below. The character’s name is Bob. I would like your child to look carefully at him and think about who Bob could be? Are there any clues in the picture to tell us who he is? What he likes? What he might do?
Today, your child is going to write a character description of Bob that tells me what he looks like, what they think he does and why. Remember, there is not a right or wrong answer we are guessing! Please help them to complete the worksheet.
Remember to use your sounds, capital letters, finger spaces and use the sentences starters at the bottom of the sheet to help you.
