English

Plan a brochure for a trip to the moon.

You will need to use the brochures you have seen this week to help you.

You can do this either as a normal space mission or be imaginative with what the moon could offer. E.g. Moon buggy rides, moon-cheese tasting, meet an alien etc.

Remember to include the features you have seen this week e.g. sub headings, persuasive vocabulary, possessive apostrophes.

You will draft this and write it up tomorrow and Friday.
