As we have been focusing on writing conversations today, I would like you write another conversation between the characters. Remember to follow our success criteria:
1) I have opened and closed my inverted commas in the correct place;
2) I have included punctuation within speech marks;
3) I have used a new line for a new speaker;
4) I have used a range of synonyms for ‘said’.

You have 100 words to use, however if you go slightly over I will not mind. 

​Have a lovely weekend!

100 word challenge #15

29/1/2016

This week we have part of a sentence. We need to think carefully before we start as we will need to know what the story is. The prompt is:

…but later that day…
​

Questions to ask:
  • What was happening beforehand?
  • Was the thing that happened good or bad?
  • Who was involved?
  • What happened next?

We have had a major focus on parenthesis and relative clauses/ pronouns over the last week or so. Please ensure you add these into your work to show me you can use them.

This week's 100 word challenge will be celebrating the first official British astronaut to perform a Space walk.

You must write 100 words including the following. 

space     Earth     astronaut       travel      orbit 

I would also like you to share information learned from this afternoon about this important part of History with your family. Could you also bring in any newspaper articles/ clippings from the event if you have any at home. This would be great in order for us to create a class collage next week. 

Have a wonderful weekend.

This week we will be focusing once again on times tables. As so few had completed the challenge from before I expect this to be done over the weekend. We will be tested on our times tables on Monday and this will be a continuous thing. You have the shortcuts on the right hand side to Mathletics and KS2 Bitesize where you will find lots of activities on this.

Questions for you to think about:

Where has it come from?
What does it want with?

As our focus this last week has been on relative clauses, I would expect you to include at least one within your writing.

This week you will need to think about punctuation as the prompt is a question. Really plan out your story before you start to write. That can really help make sure you use only 100 words and that the story flows. The prompt is:
…how could something so tiny…

 This week's 100 word challenge is linked to Children in Need. There are lots of superheroes in the world (they don't have to always wear a cape). 

You have 100 words to write a short story about a superhero. It could even be a member of your family or someone you have invented. 

Our focus is to use a wide range of punctuation correctly within our writing.
