Year 4 Writing Day
Year 4 were very lucky to spend a whole day with Tim and John working on their 'Castle Courageous' unit of writing. They learnt all about the genre of fantasy writing and the idea of portals in stories. They were introduced to the world in which Castle Courageous stands. They visited a magical emporium and investigated all the different things that could be bought there. After this, Year 4 considered which characters they might want as companions, which places they might meet them and how they might be useful on their journey. Everyone loved looking at all the models of the settings and characters in the afternoon. They inspired a lot of talk about what might be happening, ideas of how to describe the settings accurately and ignited our imaginations ready to get writing!
