Year 2 Authors

Over the past 2 weeks we have been exploring the text 'Diary of a Wombat' by Jackie French. Together we have read it, discussed the word and sentence types all in preparation for us to become 'authors'!

We chose an animal native to our country to be our main character and we planned our ideas in note form using the text and Miss Oakleys example for ideas to support ours...

Next came the challenging part... Extending and developing our notes into descriptive sentences to produce and illustrate our own versions of the text by Jackie French.

It has been a challenge but we have nearly completed our books. It's been great fun seeing our books come to life!

Take a sneak peek at us at work...

Our finished books will be ready for you to read at parents evening on 30th March, keep a look out for them in our work books... We are very proud of the them!
