Unaided Writing - w/b Monday 9th November 2020

For this week’s Unaided Writing, we are going to be writing a letter to Mr. Twit, from Roald Dahl’s, ‘The Twits’.   You can listen to the audiobook here.

It would be useful if you could discuss the following with your child in preparation for Unaided Writing: 

• Discuss and practise using the word of the week ‘astonishingly’
•  Think about where your child might have seen/met Mr Twit (e.g. in the park, in the town centre, etc)
• Think of wow words to describe what Mr Twit looks like, as well as what he is like as a person.
• Practise using connectives such as ‘despite’, ‘meanwhile’, ‘although’ and ‘however’.
• Think about your opinion of Mr Twit and what Mrs Twit’s opinion might be 

Anything that children bring in before Friday can be used to assist with writing during the week, but unfortunately cannot be used for the Unaided Writing task itself.

Thank you
