Next week, we will be completing our ‘Unaided Writing’. We will be writing our own Harry Potter story using the Hogwarts setting description from last week’s Big Writing. The story will be written from your child’s perspective, as though they are a new pupil at Hogwarts.
It would be helpful if you could discuss the following with your child in preparation for Unaided Writing…
1) This week’s word of the week is meandering
2) Create an evil character whom they meet at Hogwarts. It could be a fellow pupil, a menacing member of staff or a kind of monster such as a troll.
3) Discuss story ideas with your child: what problems might their villain be causing at Hogwarts? Think about how they might feel and the thoughts running through their head as they struggle to overcome the problem.
4) Discuss what they might do to defeat the evil character and solve the problems they are causing. How will the story end?
Unfortunately, any work brought from home cannot be used in Unaided Writing on Friday.
Many thanks,
Mrs Vaqueiro
