Year 6 have worked extremely hard over the last two weeks to
complete a piece of writing based on Harry Potter, more specifically the howler
scene. The piece started with setting the scene (in the Great Hall) and then
moved on to describe the owl's arrival, the mail being delivered and Ron's misfortune
of receiving a howler. Through watching short clips from the film and sharing
their ideas, the children have developed their use of descriptive language,
used a range of openers, and tried to use a wide range of punctuation. Some of
the pieces could definitely be published - they are that good!
As a treat for their hard work, the children had the
opportunity to create their own howlers with ferocious looking teeth and
snake like tongues.
Well done Year 6.
