Writing Workshop - Halloween Stories!
For the month of October, we learned all about writing a Narrative. We learned about the structure of a narrative and we brainstormed ideas. We chose to write Halloween narratives! We all wrote a first draft, corrected it and then wrote it out on Halloween pages. We got the chance to read them to our friends too! Check out our pictures below!

Roald Dahl Day!
September 13th is Roald Dahl Day! We spent the day learning about his life and his children's books. We finished off the story 'The Twits' and we loved it! We watched a video of him giving a tour of his Writing Hut, and followed a draw-along video of Quentin Blake's Willy Wonka!
“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”- Roald Dahl
