It's story time in Reception today - @MrJ_Evans has been in to create a story about a gorilla & a very naughty button burglar!
The children have been mapping & telling their own stories, with missing coins to a gorilla who stole a whole story!

This is a first - yes, it is the school porcupine!!! Very friendly. And the joys of being part of some great teaching writing sessions all at Greenvale Primary, a new talk for writing centre.

Stumbled across this photo from ten years ago of a bit of early @Talk4Writing invention work, fuelled by different settings.
This may have been my last full time year 6 class - madness!

From news recounts about demon dinner ladies to suspense writing with Beowulf and Grendel - loving another update to the wall!

A sample from our World Book Day celebrations - this year, we celebrated all the wonderful witches and wizards in our favourite stories.
Children in the EYs planned what they'd take if they had... room on the broom

Check out this Y5 narrative fuelled by @MichellePaver’s Wolf Brother. The children spent a few days reminding themselves about meeting tales & the character tools they’ve worked on previously & then wrote a new chapter.

Chief Inspector Green is in session, interviewing suspects to round out the Mystery of the Missing Necklace.
What a superb day we’ve had at @sandgatetfw deep inside our very own detective mystery story.

Well, well, well - what's going on 'ere then?
#WorldBookDay – at Folkestone, England
This March, it's 100 years since Agatha Christie released Poirot Investigates, so for #WorldBookDay tomorrow, we're celebrating all things mystery story.
In unrelated news, we have been leant this famous and expensive necklace to display in our school for the next few days...

There’s a lot of interesting things here - a rule kit and toolkit for writing descriptions - great editing for both improving composition and errors.
Getting spelling right is hard.
Here's a good story from Y5 at @SandgateTfW in danger of being caught out by some spelling inaccuracies, but Olive has learnt some excellent checking strategies and applied them superbly.
