Year 3 Fiction - 'Shark!'



To revise combining passage of description that 'sets the scene' with dialogue.

Your homework is to write 1/2 side of A4 entitled 'Shark!'. Two children - you and a friend - are at the beach.

* Spend 7-8 lines using the five senses, colours and similes to 'set the scene'

* Then use indented direct speech as your characters discuss the shark swimming towards you, like this:

"What is it?" I asked.
"I don't know," replied Alice. "But it sure is coming this way!"
