Laborious scrawl Ordained Invalidated Pension

Task

1. What two adverbs are used to describe how hopeful Uncle Ginger was? Pg12. Why did Uncle Ginger say, ‘Fever went like magic.’? Pg23. Why did Melody think Harmony was up to her tricks? Pg34. Why did the Silvertip grin when he said they grow tea in India? Pg45. Why do you think Harmony kept very quiet when they spoke about a dog? Pg6

1.The two adverbs used to describe how hopeful Uncle Ginger was cautiously and surprisedly (which isn’t aword).

2.Uncle Ginger said, ‘Fever went like magic,’ because he knew he was alive because of the Queen’s Nose.3.Melody thought Harmony was up to her tricks because she remembered her wish had come true to go to

America after Harmony asked her.4.The Silvertip grinned because that was one of his clues, he left Harmony on her treasure hunt for the

Queen’s Nose.

5.Harmony was quiet because she knew she had not more wishes left, and she did not get to wish for her dog.

Harmony and her family finally received two letters with good news. One was a letter from the doctors explaining it had been a miracle Uncle Ginger was going to survive and the other from her Uncle. Harmony could barely read her Uncle’s writing as it looked like it took a lot of effort to write because it was so messy (laborious scrawl). He eventually returned to England just like the Queen’s Nose had ordered officially (ordained). He told them he did not have to return to his job as he had been retired (invalidated) due to his illness. He was happy because he had received a good pension which means a regular payment he gets from the company because he had been working there for so long. I wonder what he has to say to Harmony. Let’s read and find out.

Writing

To be able to use apostrophes correctly for contraction

You can use apostrophes to show that you have omitted (left out) some letters

when you are joining words together.

E.g. You + are = you're.

The apostrophe takes the place of the removed letters. In this example, the

letter a.

Sometimes, however, you need to rearrange the letters a bit when you contract

the words. E.g. Will + not = won't.

Activity 1: Find the contracted version for each set below:

Did not They are

It is I am

We are We will

You have Should have

Activity 2: Rewrite each sentence out, placing the apostrophe in the correct place to show a contraction of two words.

1) Theyre going to the cinema today.

2) Mary said, “ Youve got a lovely house.”

3) Mum told me Ive got to be home by 7.

Activity 3: Explain the mistake in each sentence before writing it out so it is

correct.

1) Its cold out’side today.

2)I told her I didn’ot do it.

3)The dog shouldno't chase the ball.

4)We willn’t be coming for dinner after all.

Activity 4:

Find the apostrophes for contraction in the model text and underline the

words.

Challenge: Contraction or possession?

Possession

An apostrophe can be used to show that one thing belongs to or is

connected to something.

E.g. Chael's ball. Fardaws' pen.

Which sentence uses an apostrophe for contraction or apostrophe.

1. Anais’ story was full of exciting ideas.

2. They shouldn’t be wearing trainers in school.

3. I’d like to help a student that does not understand.

4. Ukraine’s currency is the Ukrainian Hryvnia.

5. I won’t go to Paris on Lilian’s plane. It’s too scary.

When the earth is facing the sun, we get sunlight for our flowers.

Working from home has been tough for me

But I know it is much easier when I watch the videos on DB
