Reading

Writing
Today we will be practicing using emotive language. Emotive language is used by writers to make somebody (their target audience) feel a particular way. Most people use it everyday without even thinking.

Task 1
1.Look at the following and underline the emotive words:

2.Explain why each of the words you underlined is emotive – what effect will they have on the reader(how will they make the reader feel)?

Task 2
You are going to write a short speech where you will make use of emotive language! Remember, you want to make the person reading or hearing the words feel an emotion.
Choose one from the options below:

1. You want to phone your best friend, but you’ve used too much phone data and it’s getting late.  You try to persuade the adults in your life to let you phone them by making them feel sorry for you.
   
2. You have broken your friend’s laptop by mistake. You have to tell them but you want them to stay calm and not blame you too much.
   
3. You want to join a new football team. You persuade the coach that choosing any other footballer would be bad for the team.

P.E

For PE this week we are focusing on dancing. I would like you to follow the dance moves on video 1 and video 2. Make sure you are aware of your space and what is around you. Do you need to move any furniture or ornaments before you start? Enjoy exploring and developing new actions whilst moving.

For an added challenge can you create and perform your own short dances with expression? See if you can get your adults involved as well, make sure to record this and post it to your portfolio.
