English
In English we will be looking at the following:
- Use of the semi-colon, colon and dash to mark the boundary between independent clauses (e.g., It’s raining; I’m fed up)
- Use of the colon to introduce a list and use of semi-colons within lists
- How words are related by meaning as synonyms and antonyms (e.g., big, large, little). (ongoing)
- Layout devices, such as headings, sub-headings, columns, bullets, or tables, to structure text
- We will be reading and writing autobiographies and biographies.
- In reading lessons we will be using the book Skellig which will also inspire our writing.
