Literacy and examples of guided reading activities

In literacy we have looking at stories based in an imaginary setting. Here are some photos of the literacy work, Big Write sessions and guided reading.

It was Storytelling week last week and we had fun sitting around the campfire making up stories.

Well done William, you are our first Big Write Star! 

William produced a super recount of a birthday party, he included some time connectives and exciting vocabulary to describe the food he enjoyed.

Here is a game to try, see if you can use your new knowledge to complete the activity.

There is also a quiz to try too. Play it here and let me know how you get on.

Big Writing task - Adverts

The Big Write task was to produce an advert for one of the six items we are selling in Warner-mart.

Have the children remembered any of the features we have discussed this week?

Big Write was based on the story we read by Pie Corbett called The King of the Birds. Year 4 were quite confused after reading it because there was no mention of a King of the Birds, however, there was a character who was the King of Horses.
After contacting Mr Corbett, he asked if Year 4 could write Part 2, in which the title of the story would become clear.

So, here are some examples of the stories written on Friday called;

King of the Birds part 2
