English-

How can you change the atmosphere of your story using just alterations to the words but keeping the sentence structure the same?

Here is a sentence from our model text-

·       A scarab beetle caught her attention: glittering wings flickered in the light; greens and blues shimmered like an iridescent gemstone and elongated feelers stretched towards her.

Here is an example of how altering just individual words can change the entire meaning and atmosphere:

·       A saxon spear caught his attention: a shining spike glittered in the light; silvers and golds glimmered like an iridescent jewel and a wooden handle stretched towards him.

Have a go at altering some of the words in the sentence to see how much you can change the meaning whilst keeping the sentence structure the same.

Now try with this sentence:

Huge, sand-coloured pyramids jutted upwards; white birds circled above, calling; a vast river oozed by and tall palm trees lined its edge.

Look at this picture:

 If you were to discuss the object in this picture in relation to who is holding it it should be written as The boy’s cake. 

As you can see, the apostrophe goes after the noun boy and before the s to show possession- the cake belongs to the boy. 

Have a go at writing the sentences for the following images using the apostrophe correctly- use the one above to remind yourself where the apostrophe goes. Don't forget our everyday toolkit of capital letters, full stops/question marks/exclamation marks and best handwriting.

If the object belongs to more than one person the apostrophe moves to the end of the plural noun. In this picture for example, the ball belongs to both girls. This should be written as The girls' ball.

Can you write a sentence about the picture below, using the apostrophe correctly?

As a challenge can you write a sentence for the below image using the apostrophe correctly?

• Read the poem, Piercing the Veil. 
• What poetic features can you see? 
• Can you highlight features such as rhyming couplets, repetition, varying line length, sudden absence of rhyme?
• Now, why not have a go at writing a rhyming couplet of your own, for example about your favourite animal or food. 

Remember, a rhyming couplet is a pair of successive lines that rhyme. It's usually the last words at the end of each line that rhyme. They're also typically the same length and have the same rhythm.

A famous example of a rhyming couplet is:

Double, double, toil and trouble;

Fire burn and cauldron bubble
