Our next Big Writing is based on writing a recount. We are going to be using the legend of Robin Hood as stimulus.
On Friday, we will be retelling one of Robin Hood’s adventures. You can watch a version of the story here…
It would be useful if you could discuss the following with your child in preparation for Big Writing:
· Discuss and practise using the word of the week ‘implored’.
· Practise using adverbs as openers (Quickly...Suddenly...Slowly).
· Think of adjectives to describe the characters of Robin Hood, the Sheriff of Nottingham, and the Merry Men.
· Practise using sequential openers to order events (Moments later… At long last…)
· Practise punctuating work, with a focus on speech marks for dialogue.
Anything that we bring in before Friday can be used to assist us with our Big Writing.
Thank you.
Mrs Vaqueiro
