So on Friday we had another wonderful lesson where we once again emphasised the importance of adjectives in sentence writing. Gill and I started the lesson by combining our classes to discuss the following sets of words - dark, moonlight night; grumpy aardvark; dry, sandy veld; sleepy baboon and tall trees, and how they can be used to make an interesting story. We got lots of other examples from the children and were very excited to see what they would come up with on their own.
They were allowed to choose a partner and soon set about writing their own stories based on what we had discussed.
After discussing their ideas, each pair then wrote their stories out in rough. To save time, I typed them up whilst they illustrated their stories.
I was delighted with the end results!
