Year Six Flat Classroom Project: Type Up Your Plan



Year Six are writing stories with girls on the other side of the world at the Crogan's Adventure Flat Classroom Wiki.

Homework
Please go onto your wiki page and type up your three suggested plans. Indicate to your partner which of the plans is your favourite.

Make sure your plans include:
1. Characters (Who is in the story?)
2. Location (Where is the story set? In which historical period?)
3. A detailed plan (remember, it must make sense to a partner on the other side of the planet)

Tomorrow we'll think about the 'frame story' in more detail.
