Writing an Adventure Story
The children are going to be having a go at writing their own 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, etc - and who has 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 on Thursday and Friday, and then again next week.
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 some good ideas about the content of their story.
