Whitebeam's Writing Cafe

Whitebeam Class had a cafe focusing on writing. We read a book, Arctic Song, and then tried to make our sentences longer and more interesting. We also tried to make them as descriptive as possible.

First we had a page out of the book we were focusing on and with the parents help we highlighted verbs, adjectives, nouns and adverbs.

Next we drew a picture of an arctic animal and decorated it. After that we cut out special templates and tried to describe the animal we chose, making the sentence a little bit longer by adding more words each time.

Finally, we joined all the pieces together to make a mobile.

Soon the parents needed a coffee while the children were tidying up.

Whitebeam say a big thank you to all the parents who came in to help.
