Acclaimed Authors at Park Street

During the first Autumn Term, it is important that children through school have chance to practise and revisit previously learned writing skills after a lengthy break. To support children with fusing the link between Reading and Writing, the first few weeks of the Autumn Term have been spent producing writing linked to each class' acclaimed author. In Team CH the class have been working on labels, lists and captions linked to Julia Donaldson texts. Team JF and Team AC have written a fact file on Oliver Jeffers and Anne Fine. In Team CB, the class have been busy delving deeper into Roald Dahl's life to create a biography. Elsewhere, in Team JD, a playscript linking to David Walliams is well underway. Meanwhile, Team DB have been writing a blurb linked to J K Rowling's work. In Team HG the focus has been on creating a one sided argument linked to Why the Whales came. It has been a truly brilliant start to the Autumn so far. We can't wait to see what will follow next in our writing units that are coming up!
