100 Word Challenge - Term 2 Week 3

This is one of my favourite photographs for writing a creative piece.

 

There is so much in it to write about!

 

Things to think about:

• Give them a character, name, personality

 

• Where have they come from?

 

• What differences can you see?

100 Word Challenge - Term 2 Week 2

This week you have a real challenge! It might seem an easy prompt but you will have to plan your story to make sure you really use it and create a masterpiece.

 

The prompt is just one word, which has to be in the story and it is:

 

SUDDENLY

 

The key to this prompt is the tension you build around the word.

 

Firstly think about the setting, the characters, whether it is happy / sad.

 

Then you need to plan what happens for you to write ‘suddenly’.

 

I’m really looking forward to reading some spine chilling or funny pieces.

Handwriting Term 2 Week 1

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

by John McCrae, May 1915
