After reading the story ‘The Marble Maker’, Room 2 has made a beautiful marble using salad spinner and paint. We also talked about feelings and how we feel after making the piece of art. Did we feel proud? Do I love my marble? What does the colours make me feel?
We are learning to add interesting language to our story.
In Story Writing we have been brainstorming adjectives (describing words) and trying to use them in our stories to make our work sound more exciting. Guy Fawkes gave us the opportunity to practise some of these words:
"Describing words are easy because I know a little bit of them", said Roman.
In Writing we have been learning to use our word card. It has some words in the colourful boxes and these help us to write our story. If we need to write a word that isn't on our card we can say the word slowly and write down the sounds we can hear instead.
"I like colouring in my picture and making it quality work", said Roman.
