2.Write a short review of the story explaining why you did or didn't like it.


3.Write a brief newspaper report about the end part of the story when Henry is on the church tower.


4.Write an advert to persuade people to buy an inflatable for their car.


5. Write your own short story about something or someone coming between friends, or a couple.


In the lesson the learners started to plan and draft their writing.


Lesson 3


1. Writing: finish first draft, proofread and produce a finished copy Learners proofread their draft copies and then their work was checked by the tutor. Errors were highlighted, discussed and self-corrected where possible. Most of the learners in the group then typed a finished copy of their work on a computer.


At the end of the lesson, some learners


volunteered to read their writing aloud to the group.


2. Homework and extension tasks: proofreading


and spelling practice For this group's homework, I copied and pasted some information about children's events at local


libraries from Croydon's Council's website. I then added errors of spelling, grammar and punctuation for the learners to identify and correct. Learners were also asked to identify


words in the text that follow the 'y to -ies' spelling rule (babies, activities) and add some more ('y to -ies') words of their own. The


spelling task was used to recap on a previous lesson, in which plural spelling rules were introduced.
