Writing to Entertain
We will be writing to entertain this term and will begin with writing instructions, these will be unusual instructions and may include writing instructions to make a magic potion. We will then be writing a third person Narrative that will also be entertaining to the reader. In order to be successful we will be using all of our SPaG skills, such as: cohesion within paragraphs, using perfect tense and progressive tense. Children will then be able to present and publish their work so that they see the end results.
