Zippity-zappety-ZAP! You have been turned into a tiny human the size of a fly. You hop into your paper aeroplane that you made.
Write about a story you had when you were tiny.
Where did you fly in your paper aeroplane?
What happened, did you crash?
Did you go to a real place or magical made up place?
Was it just you or did you bring a friend?
Writer's checklist
(students are encouraged to pick 1-2 things to focus on during a writing session)
I have used lower case letters.
I have sounded out my words.
I have used full stops at the end of my sentences.
I have used finger spaces in between my words.
I have tried my hardest.
If needed use the story map to help lay out the beginning, middle and end of the story. Your child can use this worksheet as a visual guide to group their ideas (their writing), or they may like to use it to draw out their story first in the boxes then write.
