Our class text is Nothing by Mike Inkpen (This is a YouTube link. Top tip for watching YouTube with your child: go to the settings cog along the play bar and turn off autoplay – this avoids an inappropriate clip coming up automatically, and helps to discourage your child from passively watching clip after clip). We have enjoyed reading and sharing our thoughts on the book this week. We picked out some vocabulary that we weren’t familiar with, explored the meaning and added them to our word wall.

Challenge: Can you use any of these words when talking to friends or family?

Today, we looked at the nouns and adjectives used in the book and wrote some expanded noun phrases.

Check out our fantastic writing!

Challenge: Look around you and come up with an expanded noun phrase.

“The orange, chair”.

“The round, yellow table”.
