Year 1
This term we will be focusing on settings and events that occur in stories. Our focus texts are ‘Elmer’ and ‘The Day the Crayons Quit’. Our focus will be using adjectives to describe and sentence writing, including the use of capital letters and full stops. We will also be looking at what makes a good letter, focusing on the important features and the order of a letter before we write one.
