Generating Sentences in Year 2

In Year 2 - we have seen the impact of quick-fire sentence generating on the children's writing. It has also helped to develop their story writing ideas. The children are getting much better at constructing sentences quickly, which gives their imagination a chance to flow! 

We chose 3 random words in this activity, said our sentences aloud to a partner and then wrote them on the whiteboards.

The class also enjoyed the silliness of the activity and we had a good laugh at each others imaginative ideas!

Year 3 TX - Lisa Saves The Shrimp

The children have learnt a short T4W story and then written their own 'rags to riches' story this term.

Year 1 innovation - 'The Crocodile Who Came to Tea'

1V innovated the story changing a Tiger to a Crocodile!

'The Highwayman' Shared Writing

Year 6 have used The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes as their T4W text.

After learning the poem in the imitation stage, the classes took inspiration from the poem and Noyes' use of metaphors and similes to describe a setting. Here you can see shared writing examples from 6S and 6N:
