This week in Gascoigne class, as the title suggests, we have been developing our understanding and ability to use fronted adverbials in written work. The children have been absolutely fantastic doing this and have produced some excellent work which I would like to celebrate below.
For this task in particular, they were given a simple sentence which they had to re-write with a fronted adverbial of their own.
Donny - In the arms of her frail old grandmother, she began to cry.
Will R - Whilst exploring, she saw the trees were covered with a fine dusting of snow.
Jack S - At the bitter break of dawn, the trees were covered with a fine dusting of snow.
Sadie - Painfully, the parachutist landed with a bump.
Evie - Falling uncontrollably, the parachutist landed with a bump.
After that, the children were asked to create a complete sentence, including a fronted adverbial, about either themselves or the teachers.
Leo - Bravely, Leo wrestled the mighty python.
Sadie - In her sparkly dress, Sadie danced across the room.
Millie WH - Desperately, Mr Riley piled the chocolate cake into his mouth.
I'm sure you'll agree there are some excellent suggestions here, well done to all the children.
