Many thanks to you all!
Thank you to those of you who completed the short survey. As you can see, I have taken on board what you said & we are off again for the next term.
I will keep the posts short because all you need is the prompt & the form to link to. Do get in touch if you need anything else!

Another lovely picture that I have done as a jigsaw puzzle.
You could very easily tell a story with this one. I know some of your pupils have been doing 5 Sentence for a while now & would be well up for a story. Single sentences are fine too of course!

The picture for this week came from a jigsaw puzzle that I did recently. It was called ‘Grandad’s Workshop’. There are lots of things to see. You might like to think about the smells that there might be around as well as some of the things that could be made or mended.

For the prompt this time, we are going back into history. You will see from what the characters are wearing that the picture is not set in the present day. You could try writing your sentences in the past tense.
Things to think about:
- What era is this picture showing?
- What are some of the occupations you can see?
- If you were there, which activity would you like to choose?
- what is different here to the present day?
