In writing, we had an experience day exploring the dialogue that the characters for our newspaper article could have. We watched this section of Pig Heart Boy and recorded the types of questions they asked. It was great seeing their drama skills come out but importantly having fun with the activity.

Independent writing in MI
Today children finished their independent writing and we are blown away by what they have produced. They have worked so hard by having a positive attitude towards their learning and trying their best even when things were challenging. They used their planning sheets well to support their writing. Also they have worked on the get smart howl by ensuring they produced beautiful work they are proud of. We will now start editing and redrafting our work so it is even better! Keep it up MI 🙂
Word Collecting
Today in Crew Welburn, we’ve had a focus on collecting adjectives for our writing. We are writing a description about our local area, so we took a walk to the park to listen to the sounds we could hear, and to describe what we could see. We wrote down loads of ideas and can’t wait to get writing tomorrow!
Research in Crew MI
Today we started to think about our next piece of writing, a monologue. We discussed what this was and looked at different examples, unpicking features. We then decided which animal we would base our monologue on then started researching facts on our animals appearance, diet, habitat and why it is classed as vulnerable. We are looking forward to continuing our research tomorrow!

LKS2 independent writing planning (7.3.22)📝
Today, LKS2 started planning their independent writing plot points, based on the book The Polar Bear Explorers Club. Today, we drew what we thought would happen in the plot point and then we acted it out. After completing that, we then looked through the different lenses to be able to jot down vocabulary ready to use in our independent writing. We can’t wait to write and read them!
