Writing - The big picture for this week is to use figurative language skills and sound devices (learning from last week) to create a song about the year 2020. Remember, the expectation is that your song will have enough lyrics for at least one verse and one chorus. Following on from yesterday's note-taking, today's learning activity is to plan for the lyrics for your song about 2020. Watch my video which models how to do this and then use the planning sheet to write down your ideas.
