Today in literacy we'll be reviewing Stig of the Dump, using the new 2do on PurpleMash. Above there's a link to some question cards - you'll want to put the answers in your review. The one star questions are very basic information, like what happened in the story. If you want to make your review a lot more interesting, have a go at telling the reader the answers to the three star questions, like 'Find an interesting description in the story. Who or what does it describe and why is it interesting?'. There are prompts on the side of your PurpleMash 2do which will also help you if you're struggling what to put in your review.
If you need to jog your memory on what the book is like, here's chapter 1 and 2;

Mount Etna, one of the world's most famous volcanoes, erupted spectacularly a few days ago - can you log into PurpleMash and create a factfile about this angry hill? What key volcanic vocabulary could you include? What's a stratovolcano? Ash cloud? Vent? Lava?
If you need a further volcanic challenge; I've assigned you a volcano database about these furious mountains around the world. Can you use it to solve the volcano quiz?
