In literacy we have been working on our own project in school and at home – creating our very own novels on Book Creator! As a class we love imaginative writing and were excited to write our very own story. The class has chosen a wide range of genres including adventure, comedy, action, horror and sports.

Before we began writing we looked at the important features of a beginning, middle and end to a story.  We worked together on identifying the who, where, when and what for our opening chapter. Then we moved onto planning the build up/dilemma of a story should which needed to build up a sense of excitement that something is going to happen, create a challenging problem and eventually have a resolution. Lastly, we decided if our story would end on a cliff-hanger, with a twist or a happy ending. 

Using the chromebooks, we then designed the front cover of our novel and uploaded it onto our class library.

We will continue to work on our novels this term and we are very excited to share our different stories soon!
