This week, we’ve been completing a piece of writing based on ‘The eye of the storm’. This is a video that captures an airship entering into the eye of a storm and a very mysterious character piloting it. The children used the video as inspiration to write their own setting and character description pieces. They had to create a particular mood, use expanded noun phrases and even include some figurative language.

Help at home: Watch the video again with your child. Ask them about the vocabulary they included in their descriptions.
