Where we are now

Dear Y10

We are now in full swing of our preparation for Controlled Assessment.

This is:

Your local newspaper is inviting young people to submit pieces of writing which could be published in the newspaper. They would like young people to write about:
What you would get rid of to improve life in the C21st?

We have spent our time so far looking at sentence structures. We looked at an article on an iPad and mirrored this style to make our writing lively and engaging. 

We have also worked in reverse with our sentences - this has meant that we make the structure first and then fit our writing into the sentence structure; it has lead to some successful and sophisticated writing.

Your homework was to finish your sporty sentence posters and write four paragraphs using all the sentence structures we have looked at.

Let me know if you have any problems.
Ms
