Year 6: Type Up Your 'Flat World' Story

We have been added to the 1001 Flat World tales map - visit the Flat World tales to find out more about the schools we've been linked with in our workshop (Workshop J):

Zurich International School in Switzerland

&

Roberts Elementary School in Huston, USA

Wow! We're going to get to collaborate with pupils on the other side of the world!

Homework: Please type up your story on either (A) the pupil blog or (b) on word and email it to baldworm@baldworm.co.uk. We'll 'cut and paste' it onto your page on the Flat World stories wiki next week, and begin reviewing our new friends' work in the Summer term.

Make sure you make improvements and corrections to your story as you go, paying attention to my P-Q-P comments in your book. Don't forget to visit http://www.baldworm.co.uk if you need to revise any of our key skills!



Due: Monday

Year 6 Flat World Stories & School Magazine Work - Writing a Second Draft

In class we looked at giving positive, constructive feedback using the 'elbow' and PQP methods. Using the feedback you received on your first attempt, I want you to write a second draft of your story.

Don't forget you can revise the key description and characterisation techniques that should be at the heart of any story you write at Bald Worm.
