For the writing activity in your last week I would like you to complete a reflection on the year you have had. This his been an unusual year for everybody so I am sure you will have lots to say. Try to write a paragraph about each of the following and don't forget to write about how you felt.

Favourite thing about this year
Least favourite thing
Something/some things you have learned this year
Something you are proud of this year
Favourite memory from this year
Best thing you did/achieved in Lockdown
Your biggest hope for next year.

Week Beginning Monday 6th July 2020 -

This week's writing activity is a letter to your new teacher. Lots of you will be speaking to Mrs Clarkson this week on Teams but I'm sure she would love to read a letter from you too.
Click the link on the right to see a template for writing your letter. You could print this out or just use the ideas and write your letter straight onto paper. (There are 3 versions of the sheet, some give you more help than others, use whichever you think is best for you.)
You can always add extra things to your letter that aren't on the sheet too.
Although you wont be able to give these to Mrs Clarkson straight away, I'm sure she'd love to see them in September. Or you could take a picture of your letter and e-mail it to school!

It's day 6 - Monday!

Today is the day to write what the problem in your story will be! Look at your chosen picture. and read what you wrote on your plan. Then try to write the next part of your story, What is your character trying to do? And how does it go wrong?

Happy Tuesday!
Yesterday you gave your character a big problem! Today we need to write the resolution. That means we need to solve the problem. How does your character fix their situation? Do they have help? From who?
Try to include some speech and use inverted commas, just like you do in your Greek myth.
Use the button to the right to take you to help with inverted commas.
have a go at writing the resolution, add an extra character if you can.

SPAG

Wednesday - the final paragraph!

Now it's time to end your story. Will you give your characters a happy ending? Where do they end up at the end of the story? Do they manage to do what they set out to? Do they end up back where they started?
Write a fantastic ending to your story today!

Hello, Thursday!

You've done it! You've written a wonderful story. There's only one thing left to do.

It's time to check! Read over your story and fix any parts that don't make sense.
Have you used capital letters, full stops and conjunctions?
Is there anything you can improve? Try adding some adjectives or adverbs. (Look at last week's work to remind you of these.)

Friday is here!

Your final activity... RELAX and congratulate yourself on a job well done! There's nothing left to do but let others read your story. Well done!

Week Beginning 20th April 2020

Story Writing

It's story writing time! You all wrote fantastic Greek myths in school and now it's time to use those story writing skills once again!

If you click the picture to the right, you will be taken to the pobble365 website. Here a new picture is displayed every day along with activities and you can go back through old pictures too.

I would like you to choose one of these pictures (any you like!) and use it to plan your story.

Look below for day by day ideas for how you can build your story. (remember this is just a suggestion, I know everybody's situation is different at the moment, so do as much as you can, whenever you can.)

This is week one of two in our story writing project!

Make me proud, as you always do and feel free to share you finished work with us!

It's day 1 - Monday!
Today is the day to choose your picture. Click on the the pobble link and look back through the pictures and choose your favourite.

Once you have chosen your picture, scroll down and look at the boxes underneath.
There is a subheading 'Question time!' Answer these questions to get your brain warmed up and thinking about the picture. You could discuss it with an adult or siblings and write your answers down in the workbook you had from school :)

Once you answered the questions your brain should be nicely warmed up for the second task.
Look at the subheading 'picture perfect!' read what it says and get drawing! Let your imagination run wild. This picture may help you a lot when you write your story.

Happy Tuesday!
Time to get back on your pobble page and find the picture you chose yesterday. Today's focus is punctuation.

Scroll down again and find the subheading 'sentence challenge.' Here are some challenges for you. Sentences may need or there might be a write your own sentences challenge. Read the instructions from your picture and have a go at writing the sentences in your workbook.

When you've done this scroll down further and look at the subheading 'Sick Sentences' Here there are some sentences that are okay... but I know you can improve them. Use adjectives, adverbs or whatever you think is best to make the sentences more interesting.

Opening - Who is your character? Where are they?
Build -up - Where is your character going? What are they doing?
Problem - What problems do they encounter along the way?
Resolution - How do they solve their problem? Does anyone help?
Ending - Where do your characters end up in the end? How do they feel?

Wednesday - This is where the story starts!

Back to pobble you go! Find your picture and now look to the right hand side where you will see a story starter, read this (by your self or with an adult) and use it to help you plan your story. Use the story mountain below to help you plan. (Or you can look on twinkl for story planning sheets.)

Hello, Thursday!

Is your pencil sharp and ready? Now it's time to get writing.
Try to write your story opening today. Use your plan and the other work you've done so far to help. You can use the story starter from the website or write your own.
(If you use the starter from the website, remember to add to it so you've introduced your character and setting properly.)

Friday is here!

Your final challenge for this week. Today is the day to write your 'build-up' paragraph. Look at your plan. Where is your character going? What are they doing?

Remember to write lovely detailed sentences. Use adjectives, adverbs and conjunctions.

Adjectives - Descriptive words. (The spooky and ancient house.)

Adverbs - Words to describe and action ( He ran down the path quickly and quietly.)

Conjunctions - (and, so, but, however, because, or, yet)

Well done if you have completed the work from this week! Remember this is just a guide for you if you need it. If you haven't been able to do it all don't worry! Do whatever you can and have fun with it.
Most importantly, stay safe, be happy and keep faith.
