Tuesday

Complete the Purple Mash task ‘Use Adverbs to Describe Stig’s Actions’. Ensure you listen to the sound which will explain your task to you.

Afterwards, watch the video below and use adverbs to describe how the Stone Age person is moving.

Wednesday

Watch the video below and follow the instructions. Today we will be writing expanded noun phrases about Stig to help us write a character description tomorrow. Remember, this is from Barney's perspective which means when you are writing, YOU are Barney! It should be in first person.

Write at least 6 sentences using expanded noun phrases. 

Thursday
