Task 2 Writing

Writing

You are walking along the beach and you find something buried in the SAND, write a story about what you found buried in the sand.

Think about what will you do with it? Are the any other characters with you in the story? Is it treasure or something important someone has lost?

Have a go at writing a story with a beginning, middle and end.

We would like you to focus today on using 'Wow words' to make your writing more interesting to the reader.
