Good Morning Year 2!

Click here for a printable version of this blog post: English Tuesday printable

I hope you enjoyed the start of the book yesterday. I think it will have lots of fun ideas of things to do!

For your writing task this week, you’re going to have to interview people in your house (or you can call other friends and family) to find out the things they do that make them happy.

Today, we’re going to write some questions that you could ask them. Questions always start with a question word and end with a question mark (?). You might notice that when you ask a question, your voice goes up at the end!

This BBC Bitesize lesson starts with a useful video on question marks which you can watch. If you have more time, you could do the activities and lessons that follow after 

Looking forward to reading your questions!
