English

Non-fiction: Explanation Texts

1.  What is formal language? Watch the videos, try the quizzes and then write/type/ record a range of sentences using formal and informal language. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zvgg4qt/articles/zp42rwx
2. Design your own marvellous machine, just like the Teacher-Pleaser. You may want to do something like a Bedroom-Tidier, a Homework-Completer or a Sibling-Annoyer! Create a poster of your machine and label its different features, thinking carefully about how each part works.
3. Write an explanation text to show how your marvellous machine works. This should include the features you have learnt about – technical/formal language and causal conjunctions – and match the style of the Teacher-Pleaser example. You can present this however you wish. Be sure to send a photo/copy to your teacher once you have finished.
