English
This term, we have really enjoyed reading two stories that were linked to our History topic. Firstly, we retold our own version of the adventure story using the key features of this text type to write the opening, build up, problem, resolution and ending. We tried hard to ensure that we entertained our reader to match the purpose of the genre by adding in lots of emotive vocabulary and description. We created lots of powerful noun phrases using the thesauruses to up level our choices. Throughout the unit, we also thought carefully about how we could use different conjunctions and fronted adverbials to capture extra details.
