VCOP - Writing

For the past 3 weeks, we have been working so hard on writing Narratives! Narratives are stories. This week we wrote a narrative about going on an adventure. We went to many different places in our classroom such as the beach, Lego Land, Adventure World and many more!

Our focus has been on including amazing vocabulary words such as energetically, impressive and commendable. Each week we create a list of WOW words that our class comes up with. Mrs S puts these WOW words on the smart board, so we can include them in our writing.

Not only do we have our own words, but then Mrs S gives us 5 teacher challenge words. We have to try to include at least 2 of those words. This weeks teacher words for our adventure narratives were:

heart stopping: so exciting or scary your heart beats quickly

fearless: you have no fear

incredible: something is amazing

adventurous: an exciting experience

breathtaking: something took your breath away

Along with focusing on vocabulary, now that we are big Year 2, we are starting to write using paragraphs. Learning paragraphs has been very tricky but practice makes perfect!

Next week there will be no TALK homework as we are going to have a Writing Assessment instead! These will be done in our Test Books so you can see what super writers we are!
