Year 4 Home Learning due in Monday 9th June 2014
English
We have been learning about Aboriginal
Dreamtime stories, which explain how the world/people or animals were created.
Many of the tales, have a moral. Think about a time when you have learnt
something from a mistake. For example, I was carrying too many things in my
arms at once, going up the stairs, when I dropped some things and tripped and
fell. I ended up banging my chin and biting my tongue quite hard, so eating was
painful. The next time I had to carry lots of things upstairs, I did two
journeys. The moral of my story is: do not carry too much, two or three trips
would be better.
Children need to write about a page of their Home Learning books describing
a similar event, which explicitly states the moral at the end. Try to be
creative and descriptive with your writing, but is only two paragraphs, not two
pages.
