Writing an Adventure Story
This week, the children in Year Two are going to be having a go at writing their own adventure stories in the style of an ancient myth.
We have talked about the key elements required for this: - having a hero or heroine that needs to go on a quest/ to find something/ rescue someone, - and who has lots of adventures along the way (involving mythical creatures and magical assistance, etc)
The children are planning out their stories and are going to be writing a section each day.
I will be modelling the writing of my own story to help the children to structure and organise their story-writing; and to draw attention to how to develop characters, settings and the plot.
It would be great if you could chat to your child about their story (the plot, the characters, the monsters) and so help them to have a good, secure idea about the content that they are going to develop over the week.
