PE: Fitness circuit (Part 3): Designing a fitness circuit
In this lesson we learn about the different ways we can keep healthy and design our own fitness circuit.
English: We are going be doing some writing based on the film ‘Soar’.
Watch the film here: https://vimeo.com/148198462
First, we would like you to sequence the key events in the story:
Once you have all the events in the correct order, this will become a plan to help you rewrite the story.
We are going to give you 2 days to retell the story, from the girl’s point of view. We are looking for:
– For you to write in first person (as the girl)
– A range of punctuation
– Exciting vocabulary
– Different sentence lengths
– For you to imply how the characters are feeling rather than just tell the reader e.g. Mara held her breath as the plane took flight.
– Correct spellings
Here is an example written by another Year 6 child to help you: Soar Example
