The children enjoyed this year’s World Book Day in Year 6 which had as its focus ‘Stormbreaker’ by Anthony Horowitz. Time was given to analysing a short, suspenseful scene after which the children were fully engaged in a ‘free write’ activity where the aim was to improve upon Horowitz’s words. Children were able to think back to the suspense scene from our Shackleton unit and remember to use two to three SSFI – short sentences for impact!

Of course, a lot of the fun of the day comes from dressing up as a favourite character! Kudos to everyone who took part – the children looked fantastic!
