Writing

Hi - Here are some more stories from our recent work

Dad
My dad calls me 'Poppet'. We like to feed the ducks.  We laugh when they get water in their eyes.  Dad looks like he has a little bit of hair but he has a lot of hair.  He goes to work and he wears a light blue  tee-shirt.  It has patterns and they are grey.

In the Frost
My dog has got snow on his nose.  The grass is frosty.  It is covered in ice. The flowers are icy and frosty.  
By Keelyn


Scarface Claw
Scarface Claw is fat.  He has little legs.  He likes to fight with the dogs.  His little whiskers twitch.
By Bailey


Skipper
Skipper has curly hair on his tummy.  It is very soft.  He chases the birds.  The birds fly faster.  The family keeps Skipper outside but when it is rainy they say "Inside Skipper!"  
By Samantha


Dad
My dad calls me 'Monkey' because I am a monkey.  I swing from bar to bar. I slip and my dad catches me.  My dad lifts me back to the monkey bars. He has brown hair and brown eyes.

Descriptive Writing

Hi! I have been really pleased with the writing in our class this week.  The focus with most of the children shown in these videos has been to give more detail - so rather than just giving one sentence about an idea  - to elaborate and give some more information.  There has also been some lovely vocabulary coming through.  Will post some other ones soon.  WELL DONE Room 9!

Drama

As I mentioned we have been doing some drama in Room 9.  Here is a video of the children acting out a story where elephants travel through a jungle - meeting a few dangers along the way (including some crocodiles that would not stay in their river!)  It is very hard to listen to the sound of your voice.  Next time I will get one of our skilled readers to read out the story!
