English Activity: Make some words: The word I want you to look at is shamrock. How many smaller words can you find inside this word? Write them out. Write some sentences about what you were doing over the weekend. Did you go somewhere new within the 5km!? Maybe you got to go out for a while and cycle a bike, ride on your scooter, watch a new film.. Remember to use our questions, Who, What, When, Where and Why. I’ve attached a poster below to remind you. Think about who did you go with?, what did you do?, where did you go?, when did you go? why did you cycle your bike?, for example. Don’t forget capital letters and full stops. Capital letters usually begin at the top line, lowercase letters are smaller.
