Become a Word Collector!
Mrs Enchill-Balogun did a video assembly on a story called ‘The Word Collector’ by Peter H. Reynolds.

One of our Capel Manor New Year’s resolutions was to:
Build bigger vocabularies by:
- Discovering more words
- Finding out what they mean and
- Finding ways to use our new words
Your teachers will be setting you a ‘Word Collector’ activity every week as part of your weekly Remote Learning via Tapestry / Google Classroom. Remember to also complete the “My Word Collection - Table of Words” activity which is included in your assignment.

The activities will involve you becoming a ‘Word Collector’, like Jerome in the story.

You can watch the story again to remind yourself of what happens:
The Word Collector by Peter Hamilton Reynold
Your ‘Word Collector’ activity will look like this:
What new words have you collected this week?
We do expect each child to complete this activity as part of their weekly Literacy work as assigned by their class teacher.
Please encourage your child to have fun learning and using their new words.
Word Collectors are go!
