In preparation for writing a narrative, you will study the style of JK Rowling. In particular, we would like you to look at the way she opens her sentences. Not every sentence has an amazing sentence opener. If it did, her books would not be as easy and enjoyable to read.
Task 1 – read two pages from the book and make a list of every sentence opener
Task 2 – categorise your list in a table. Some heading examples are below
|
Determiner |
Noun |
Pronoun |
ing verb |
Adverb |

Today we would like you to re-read the text about Greta Thunberg which you read on Monday. Now you are familiar with the text, have identified those words you are unsure of and hopefully found out what they mean, it is time to answer some questions. Please answer the questions which go with the two star version of the text. For those of you who did this yesterday you have one less activity to complete today - yay! Don't forget to read some of Harry Potter if you get chance :)
