This blog is a place where I can tell you what we have been doing in lessons, set homework and create links to extend your learning outside the classroom.
So far this term we have been doing the Inroductory Unit where we have looked at character descriptions and 'Killer Openings'. We have looked at the language choices a writer makes when constructing a character and have considered how different sentence lengths can be used for effect.
You have started as writers to make these choices yourselves and have made some excellent choices in terms of using a variety of sentences and carefully choosing the most appropriate language.
Your homework this week is to finish your 'Killer Opening' and hand it in on Tuesday 28th September. Remember to proof-read your work. Have you chosen really effective vocabulary and used a variety of sentences?
On a final note I would like to say how well you have adapted to being in Year 7 and how well you are working as a team.
WELL DONE!
Mrs McNamara
