Year 4 Are Visiting Treasure Island

This half term, our novel is Treasure Island. This is also our driver for our writing. We have already read the first 6 chapters and have looked specifically at vocabulary that has been used which is unfamiliar. All of our lessons have a quick recap on the previous day's new vocabulary and the children have done exceptionally well at retaining this knowledge. In writing, we have also started completing diary entries from the perspective of Jim Hawkins. As the children know, and enjoy, the story so much, they are flying with the modelled diaries. Over the next week, they will complete an independent piece from the perspective of Long John Silver.
