The Write Stuff

'The Girls'

This week we are looking at the story ‘The Girls’ by Lauren Ace.

Yesterday we learned about how Sasha had become a doctor and we described the things that she did in her job using the action lens.

For today’s lesson please watch and listen to the video below and pause it at 4mins 19sec.

Take a look at a close-up picture of the story below.

Here you can see Alice has had a baby.

We are going to look at the ‘noticing/looking’ lens for our discussion and writing.

Talk and have a go at writing words about what you notice about the baby/what the baby looks like.

Here are some examples:
- she has rosy cheeks
- she has huge eyes
-she has golden hair

-she has fair skin.

Now…I’ve got a sentence in my head for this picture …. My sentence is…

She had rosy, pink cheeks.

Maybe you can come up with your own verbal sentence to describe what the baby looks like!

You could even have a go at using your phonics to write your own sentence about the picture.
