Free Writing Friday

Every Friday the students take part in 'Free Writing Friday' which is the time of the week when the students can write about anything that they like. They are motivated and engaged in this type of writing as having choice can make a huge difference to engagement levels.

Check out this video of the students during one of these sessions:

 


The students get ideas for their writing from each other and their interests plus they can use the following sites for inspiration too:

• https://www.literacyshed.com/the-images-shed.html
• http://www.pobble365.com/
• http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/story-starters/    

We also have a selection of Story Cards and The Game of Awesome Cards in class to use too!
