Literacy Homework 09.09.16

Literacy Homework – due in Wednesday 14th September

In class, we have been learning about the ‘VCOP’ superheroes and how they help us in our writing. To start our ‘Imaginary Worlds’ topic next week and to celebrate Roald Dahl day we have chosen an extract from ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.’ Please read the extract with your child and see if they can highlight the VCOP.

Once you have read the story, identify and underline some (not all!) examples of:

Vocabulary – adjectives, adverbs and verbs

Connectives – joining words, e.g. and, because, but, so

Openers – words / phrases that start sentences

Punctuation – underline ONE example of each

Use colouring pencils. This will help you when writing your own version next week.
