Writing

This week we created comic strips for our favourite fairy tales.

The success criteria was to use:

• capital letters
• full stops
• exciting adjectives
• conjunctions

Today we would like you to read over your work and write  2 stars (what you’re proud of) and a wish (something that you’d like to improve) for your writing.  You might like to use this fairy tale themed template or you could write in your jotter.

Remember that Monday is a holiday so check in on Tuesday to begin our next learning adventure. Have a lovely long  weekend!

Good Morning Primary 3!

I hope you are well. It is so lovely to see the sun is shining again. I can hear the birds tweeting outside. It is definitely a day for a nice woodland walk.
