English

This term we have been reading Kate DiCamillo's 'The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane'.

We have written in depth character descriptions about Edward and the kind of rabbit he was and our own stories, using our favourite toys as our main characters.

We have also looked at persuasive texts and have written our own letters trying to persuade Ms Sheedy to have a tuck shop in school. (  we are still waiting to hear back! )  

 

 

 

We have planned, written and edited our own adventure stories, using strong adjectives, a story mountain planner and our senses to help us describe the setting.

We had to build suspense in our stories and introduce new characters which led to an appropriate problem and an interesting resolution for our main character.
