![Page 11: Spellings challenge words Week Beginning 6.4 · English. Week Beginning 6.4.2020 This week you will be writing a biography of Queen Elizabeth II. There will be four lessons. Some](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042223/5ec985f652428431e71932cd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Time as Queen
• Family
• Significant events
• Rise to the throne
• When you find information, make a note of it under the heading that it is most suited to.

Making notes
Your notes need to be short but also have enough information.
All this information…Elizabeth II is Queen and is interested in the running of her countries, but she does not tell the governments what to do. She has regular meetings with people from her governments, but it is they who run the countries. She performs ceremonies for the governments, gives out honours, and visits and supports many charities.

Sources (not sauces)
Where does your information come from?
It is a good idea to make a note of the websites and the books you use. This is so people can check that you have got your facts from a trusted place.
Also, a responsible writer will check their facts. Do each of your sources say the same thing? If you don’t check, you could be writing down something that is not true.
![Page 14: Spellings challenge words Week Beginning 6.4 · English. Week Beginning 6.4.2020 This week you will be writing a biography of Queen Elizabeth II. There will be four lessons. Some](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042223/5ec985f652428431e71932cd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
You now need to research Elizabeth II
• Try and use more than one website and, if you have any books that would be useful, use those. Make a note somewhere of all the websites and books that you took information from. These will be your sources.

Lesson 3: Fronted Adverbials
![Page 16: Spellings challenge words Week Beginning 6.4 · English. Week Beginning 6.4.2020 This week you will be writing a biography of Queen Elizabeth II. There will be four lessons. Some](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042223/5ec985f652428431e71932cd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What are fronted adverbials?
First, you need to know what a verb is.
A verb is an action or a ‘doing word’. Every sentence has to have a verb.Some examples of verbs are:
walk / walked / walkingshout / shouted / shoutingSusan flew through the air in her parachute.
Verbs change depending on the tense.
![Page 17: Spellings challenge words Week Beginning 6.4 · English. Week Beginning 6.4.2020 This week you will be writing a biography of Queen Elizabeth II. There will be four lessons. Some](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042223/5ec985f652428431e71932cd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Adverbials add information to the verb.
• Susan flew gracefully through the air in her parachute.
Fronted adverbials are words or phrases at the beginning of a sentence, that add information to the verb that follows.
• Gracefully, Susan flew through the air in her parachute.
