This morning in writing we focused on creating openings that would “hook” the reader in.  First, we looked at different openers  written by Roald Dahl and categorised them into openers that begin with dialogue, describe the setting or describe the characters or even a bit of all of them.  We then looked at how asking the reader a question, or including exciting action can also hook a reader in.  Finally, we wrote our own introductory paragraphs to hook our readers in.

Please check the homework blog from Tuesday to ensure you’ve completed all of the tasks.  Remember to bring your class novel into school on Monday.
