Writing- The Tiger who came to tea

Friday 23 January 2026

For the past two weeks we have been focussing on the story ‘ The Tiger who came to tea’ by Judith Kerr.

We explored key parts of the story together, talking about the characters, events and our favourite moments. As part of our learning, we used the story as inspiration to write our own sentences. Our key learning objective was to use conjunctions, and the children practised joining ideas using words such as and, but and because. They showed great enthusiasm and creativity while developing their sentence-writing skills.

We are now ready for our independent write next week!

Help at home: Test your knowledge- Can you write a sentence using a conjunction about something you are doing over the weekend?

You could bring these into class next week to share with everyone!
