During our recent writing lessons, we have been writing a diary from the perspective of a 10 year old girl in the 1960s and her dads making her attend MLKs speech. The children have loved writing a diary and are now writing their own at home, which is lovely to see.
Today in Crew Wilkinson, we used Freeze Frames to help us feel the character feelings. This helped us to understand their emotions better, so we can write a more detailed descriptions when writing a diary entry.
Children created some great chotting on Friday with Miss Thompson then used their ideas in a shared write before applying to their own work. Today we all took part in a shared write for the second chunk of PP3 with a real focus on modifying our verbs. We are looking forward to finishing our work on Wednesday.
Some great case study reflections on the digestive system 🙂 Children used the knowledge they had gained through case study one to write an explanation of what happens during digestion.
We are working hard on our joins 🙂
Today we had a try at making our first plot point better. We reflected on what the learning was for the lesson and if we had been successful in achieving it. We read our own work and a partners work and we gave some critique. We then looked at a crew members work together and tried to make this better using the features on our target grids. We then had a go at improving our own work.
Today we practised using fronted adverbials. We also tried to to consolidate our learning from yesterday by using a coordinating conjunction to extend our idea.
Today in our experience lesson we pretended to be on a bus. We all bought our tickets from bus driver Nandi and found somewhere to sit. There were people listening to music, drinking their coffee and even reading a book. Unfortunately there were more people than seats so some people had to stand up! We rang the bell and got off at the train station!
I was absolutely blown away by some of the writing today.
