Today we looked at our writing in lots of detail. We were checking some recent work and looking for things like how well we used dialogue, description and punctuation. We thought about whether our writing made sense, and whether we were joining our letters.
To help with this, we swapped books and looked at each others’ work too. Was it useful? What do you need to improve in your writing? Leave a comment.
Here are the first 7 examples of writing done in 2JS this week. These are part of our storyboard project (see the post below). I think the children did a fantastic job working in their groups of three. They came up with imaginative, interesting, and clever ways to tell their part of the story.
What do you like about their work?
What could they improve?
Kate wrote some brilliant descriptive sentences today about the character of Harry from Tony Ross’ version of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”. If you haven’t read it, Harry (the boy who cries “Wolf!”) is pretty mean and silly. This is what Kate has to say about him. Click on the little picture for the full version.
What could Kate improve? Remember to be a critical friend – tell her what you like, then tell her something she could improve in a nice way!
Can you describe these amazing creatures?

We really welcome comments about how we could improve our video. We are evaluating the project at the moment and would love to hear what you think. We hope you like it!
We are getting on brilliantly with our storyboards. How could we improve them? Comments please.

Adeel and Usamah worked really hard on their character study. Could you add some more sentences to describe the witch?
