✨ Word of the Week: Gregarious ✨

This week's word is a fantastic one for describing characters in stories and developing ambitious vocabulary! 🦉📚

📖 Gregarious means: enjoying the company of others and being sociable.

✏️ In a sentence:
Barney Owl was so gregarious that he quickly made friends with every animal in the forest.

👇 Personality Challenge 👇

Imagine these two owls:

🦉 Ozzie Owl spends breaktime chatting, playing games and meeting new friends.

🦉 Barney Owl enjoys reading quietly under a tree by himself.

💬 Which owl is more gregarious – Ozzie or Barney?

Bonus challenge: Can you think of a character from a book, film or TV show who is gregarious?

👏 Well done to all of our brilliant tutees who continue to build their vocabulary each week. Every new word helps children become more confident readers, writers and communicators. ✨
