Good morning Key Stage One.

Here is our new text, ‘The Little Gardener’ by Emily Gravett.

Today’s task is to write some descriptive sentences about the garden. 

We are going to use noun phrases and expanded noun phrases to do this. We have practiced noun phrases before. I wonder what you can remember?

The slippery worm. 

I can use one adjective to describe the noun. Here the noun is the worm. The adjective is slippery.

I can use more than one adjective in my expanded noun phrase. 

I have used a comma (,) to separate my adjectives.

For an extra challenge, why not try writing an expanded noun phrase? Don’t forget to use a comma!
