WHOLE SCHOOL WRITING PROJECT

 

This week, we are running a whole school writing project.  

As part of your home learning, you need to take part in this project, and send us evidence of your entry.  You can send you evidence in as:

Email to the school email address

A copy to be handed in at the reception

Upload it to Purple Mash

 

Entries for the writing project must be in by Wednesday 3rd March.  

In order to take part in the writing project, start by watching this video:

Oktapodi

beneath the video, you will see a number of suggestions about what sort of writing genre you might like to use.  This is up to you - choose the sort of writing you will enjoy, and do your best at.

Then:

Use one lesson to plan your writing

Use one lesson to create your piece of writing, considering handwriting and grammar skills.

 

Once your entry has been received, you will receive feedback from your teacher, which will involve you editing and might require redrafting.

Therefore, the writing project will take up two of your writing sessions for this week, and one of your sessions next week for feedback and editing.

 

Please make sure that you try just as hard as you would at school so that your teacher can see exactly how well you are doing with your writing.

 Guidance for parents - What should my child's writing look like?
