The Village Dinosaur

I have given us a change today and decided to branch out into other different texts. Try to answer the questions in full sentences. Remember to answer on a separate sheet with a title and a date.

Topic - Writing a story in the style of a Native American Lore.

Having written your first three sentences and introduced your character or characters, make sure you send it in, so I can give you feedback to help you improve it. Have you given it a setting and described it?

Continue your story, even if you have not got feedback yet as they may cross over in the emails. Check your spellings and use speech between your characters. Remember your speech punctuation and to start a new line for a new speaker. Try to finish it today and I will give final feedback on its completion. Remember your adjectives and powerful verbs too!

LOOK SAY COVER WRITE CHECK

Test yourself daily after learning them. There might be one or two that prove more difficult to remember. These are the ones to really work on. Good luck for tomorrow!
