In Literacy this half term we have been reading How To Train Your Dragon. The chapter we have focused on explains how the brave young Vikings climbed a perilous cliff to face a dragon- infested cave.
Over the last two weeks we have taken on the role of one of these characters and discussed their thoughts and feelings as they undertook this dangerous adventure.
We planned out the events in chronological order and used this as a guide to write a letter to our younger selves; explaining what tasks they would be expected to take on when they were older.
So that the reader had a clear picture in their mind we ensured our descriptions were vivid and detailed. We included expanded noun phrases as well as prepositional phrases to support this.
"I really like adding expanded noun phrases. It makes my description much clearer." - Ivan, Maple
"I'm excited to write my letter from a different person now and how fun with their view of events." - Cruz, Willow
