Our Writing this week (year 3)

Dear Parents,

This week the children are being challenged to address a variety of elements in their written work. We are using the story of Daedalus and Icarus as an impetus for our writing:

 

• improving our story writing by using adjectives/adverbs/powerful words
• linking clauses with connectives (+use of comma)
• use of speech marks to "bring our stories to life"
• proof reading – for accuracy and to make improvements in content of our writing.
• an emphasis on neat handwriting (I'll be very keen to praise select examples.)
