Year 4 Weekly Writing Task – 04/05/2020

Task – Informal Letter Writing

Write an informal letter to a friend or relative that you are not able to see during these unusual times. Write about what you have been doing and how you are feeling.

What I’m Looking For:

• An introduction – use an informal greeting and explain why you wanted to write to them.
• 3 paragraphs to organise your writing –  what you have done, where you have been and how you are feeling.
• Use chatty and informal expressions.
• Ask questions about your friend/relative.

Grammar Focus

• Time conjunctions – they are used to join ideas in a sentence and give more information about when things happened (see guidance below)
