This week in English we have learnt about imperative verbs (bossy verbs). With the help of Little Miss Bossy we got a really good understanding of the meaning of the word ‘bossy’! Using our knowledge of how to use imperative verbs, we gave each other silly instructions to follow and by the end of the lesson, it was very clear what instructions are.
Our next challenge was to explore what everyday instructions look. We now know that recipe books, instructions manuals and safety rules are all different forms of instructions. But what do written instructions look like? Looking at a selection of instruction sheets, the children worked in teams to investigate the similarities and differences between sets of instructions. They did an impressive job of identifying headings, sub-headings, numbered steps, pictures and bullet points. It was thrilling to see them apply their knowledge of features of non-chronological reports to help identifying features of instructions text. A job well done Year 2!
On Saturday, 40 of those learners, friends and colleagues, including BSG staff, students, parents and friends, got together at Qingyuan Lion Lake Golf Club (清远狮子湖高尔夫俱乐部) for a memorable day of golf, getting to know each other and a little bit of competition.
Remember, this is a charity event. The more people who attend, the more we can raise for the Hopeful Hearts Charity and make a difference together. We look forward to seeing you on November 9th! Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to have fun, connect with others, and support a great cause.
