Autumn 1
In our English lessons we have been looking at the wordless picture book 'Flotsam', by David Wiesner.
During our lessons we have been creating descriptions of different scenes, creating fictional diary entries to imagine the characters' thoughts and feelings and creating a persuasive brochure for our own underwater city.
Throughout these lessons we have had a writing focus on: sentence structure (complex sentences in particular), similes, revision of expanded noun phrases and improving our work through the use of guided editing stations.
