Reading W2 T3

This week will finish off our intro into the Writing Rainbow. This flows on really well from the work you did last week. Our goal was to have an understanding of the fantastics and the boomtastics and how authors use these in their writing to have a greater impact on the reader. We then ha to go on a google slide and copy and paste what we thought was fantastics in our reading.

Writing W2 T3

This week for writing our goal was to use a range of written features to engage the audience support ideas with detail.

The old lady was scary

The old lady was scary and walking closer with a lollipop as a walking stick. 

“What are you doing to my house little boy” Said the witch

“Just having some pieces of this house, Is it yours” Said Hansel 

“Yes this is my house” Said the Witch

“ Would I be allowed one more piece of candy” Said Gretel

“Sure Come Inside” Said the witch. 

Hansel and Gretel walked into the house but it was dark and mysterious. “This doesn't feel right to me ” said Hansel “Me neither” said Gretel.

Suddenly The old lady turned into a witch, Hansel and Gretel were trying to run away but the witch quickly threw them both into a cage. “Girl you can be my servant so get out of the cage” Said the witch, as she grabs Gretel out of the cage. After a while of being fed up by the witch Hansel realised what she was trying to do. She was trying to get Hansel fat so that when she went to eat Hansel he was fat. Hansel then showed the witch a chicken bone so it looked like he was getting skinnier and skinnier.  The witch then took Hansel out of the cage but when the kids had their chance they pushed the witch into the fire and the witch was never to be seen again. The kids found their way home and lived happily ever after.

Have you ever used a fantastic in your writing before ?

Reading W1

This week in reading we will be using the Fantastics to analyse a text and discuss the importance of transferring our knowledge of the Fantastics across reading and writing and read like writers. We then had to read a book of the teachers choice and name all of the Fantastics. This was the final outcome.

Have you heard of the Fantastics before?

Writing W1 T3

This week for writing we had to write about Hansel and Gretel but we had to give the story our own touch. Our goal for this week was use a range of written features to engage the audience.

support ideas with detail(use an adverb to show how) This was my final piece of writing I have done.

Hansel and Gretel

They froze. They froze stress fully. They froze stress fully and anxiously until they

dashed into the forest. While Hansel and Gretel were walking through the forest they

came across a house but this was no ordinary house. They then realise that this house

is made of candy and boy do they love filling up their bellies, The smell of sweet and sour

gummy bears flew into Hansel's nostrils. This house has a tall gingerbread chimney,

m & m door and a chocolate fountain as a centrepiece. They knew they shouldn’t have

touched the house but the sweet and salty pretzels tickled their taste buds. They then

realised they shouldn’t have gone in the forest but the temptation was real. They knew

they mustn't touch the house but the smell of sour lemonade lingered into their nose. I’m

frightened, said Gretel, It’s fine just keep going, said Hansel when he knew that they

should turn around. Hansel and Gretel tread through the depressing forest. The wind

howled like a werewolf on a full moon. The next thing they do is start eating the whole

house one candy at a time but suddenly they hear a voice yelling at them. A little old

lady then stops to stare at the children and says “ Don't be scared my children come

inside. I don’t bite ( or do I )” she said under her breath. THE END .

Have you ever read Hansel and Gretel ?
