Alien Explanation
If an alien came down to Earth from another planet
he would probably be very confused by a lot of things he would find here. Look
around your house. There are a lot of things in your house that would confuse
an alien. You probably take a lot of these things for granted. Things like a
television, a games console, a computer, a vacuum cleaner, and a washing
machine would probably be unknown to the alien.
Imagine an alien did land on Earth and that you made
friends with it. Choose an item from the list above, or use an idea of your
own, and explain what it is to the
alien. Write your explanation down. Think about what the thing is used for, how
you use it and how it works.
Remember to read through your work carefully before
you post and check for spelling and punctuation errors.
- Spellings (20mins) should be practised for a short time each day, using the words given in sentences.
