Persuading The Teacher

As part of our persuasive writing lessons 3JC/DA wrote to their teacher to persuade them to let the class have some extra time on the Adventure Playground. Here are three examples of their attempts:

Mr Ainscow,

Please can you take us on the Adventure Playground because you have been working hard by teaching us. Mr Ainscow you will get some fresh air if you take us to go on the adventure. Mr Ainscow can you take us to go to the adventure playground because you will get fit.

Nydile

Please can you bring us onto the Adventure Playground. I promise we will all wear our coats and be very careful. You really deserve to get a run around for being such a good Assistant Headteacher.

Brodie

Dear Mr Ainscow

Please could we go on the Adventure playground. Firstly, we get some fresh air and you will have some time off your boring job. Finally, you will not have to shout at naughty children.

Harry 

Dear Mr Ainscow,

You and Mrs Cook are the best teachers in the world. I think you and our class should have a break from all our work and we would like to go on the Adventure Playground because we haven’t been first in ages. We would really like it if we’re allowed. We all promise we’ll be really, really, really, really good.

Leia

We shall have to see if their efforts get them what they want!

3JC-DA Gargoyle Poems

Early this term, 3JC/DA have been writing poems about Gargoyles. We based it on a poem we read as a class and then wrote poems concentrating on using adjectives and nouns to create exciting descriptions.

Here are some of our examples:

Gargoyle

Stuffy grey spotty hard gargoyle

Sat on the highest peak!

As silent as the wind

Great anger, safely looking among us!

Forgotten, magnificent creature!

By Tia C

Gargoyle

The still strong gargoyle sitting by the roof.

One rocky gargoyle sits as still as a stone.

Two grey gargoyles looking down.

Three hard gargoyles waiting patiently.

Four dangerous gargoyles.

By John P

Gargoyle

Large protector,    

Grey protector, 

As scary as a statue,

A holy creature,     

A still beast.

By Mimi S
