Writing

While we are working remotely, our writing is based on visual literacy clips. We will base our writing around the video 'Once in a Lifetime'. This video is set in a fantasy world when a man is sailing in his boat, through the air!  He hears a noise and suddenly gliding into view are some giant, flying turtles. 

In our writing we will:

• Write our own ending to the story thinking about where the turtles might take him. 
• Write our own version of the story choosing a different animal that comes floating by.
