Last week we spent time sharing our weekend news writing with a friend.

A big focus for everyone this term is to write a sentence with a capital letter at the beginning, clear finger spaces between words and a full stop at the end.

After reading our own news books, we swapped with a friend and became the teacher for the morning! Everyone had to check to see if their partner had included all of the things needed for a sentence. We used a pink pencil to show what had been done well (tickled pink!) and a green pencil to show what could be worked on next time (green for growth). Some pupils even added a comment in their partner’s book to say what they had done well.
