Monday

Today we are going to be completing some news writing. It is going to be all about you! Can you write about you weekend? Can you include details such as where you went? Who you saw? If you had fun?

When we are writing about something that has happened we are writing in the past tense so we must use past tense words such as went, watched, saw, ate, played.

To make sure our writing makes sense we also write what we did in an order. Time words can help us with that such as yesterday, on Saturday, after that, then, in the afternoon, finally. Try to include some of these in your writing too.

Don’t forget to use full stops and capital letters. I look forward to reading all of your news!
