At SJS this week it has been writing week.  In Year 3 we have been writing character descriptions based on Blodin the beast. In art we aged some paper to write our character descriptions on.

This year SJS writing week has been based on the book ‘Blodin the Beast’ by Micheal Morpurgo. Miss Sheehan’s literacy set created some other wierd and powerful monsters to base our stories on.  Here are some examples:

Moonlet Army

Icicle The Dragon

Bigfoot

From 14th January to 18th January it has been Writing Week at SJS. The theme of writing week has been Blodin the beast by Michel Morporgo. We have done a broadcast about the book, a postcard to Shanga who is a character and in other year groups children have made an ending to the book before reading the real ending.

During writing week in Year 4 we have been writing our own stories based on a picture book called Blodin the Beast. We had to pick a name for our characters then pick what Hosea (the little boy) took with him on his journey through the mountains, the jungle and the desert. We also had to figure out what equipment to use to destroy the monster. We had early literacy lessons and extra literacy lessons all to try and finish our story of Blodin the beast. Thankfully Miss S was on hand to help us improve our sentences.

In writing Week we wrote a story based on a book called Blodin the beast. We even made our own MONSTER and mine was ‘Icecall the Dragon’ then we wrote our own story. It was really good fun in Miss Sheehan’s literacy group. You can try it too!
