Today in Year two we continued to explore our new book ‘The king of space’. In our previous learning, we had created expanded noun phrases and similes to describe the main character Rex. We also read other character descriptions of other characters such as The Highway Rat. From these other descriptions, we created a tool kit that included all of the features we needed to include in order to write a successful character description. The children wrote some excellent descriptions and managed to include expanded noun phrases, similes and contractions. We have been working on contractions in our grammar lessons and it was great to see the children being able to incorporate these new words into their writing.
