Story book characters!

This week we are learning about how to create our own story book characters! We watched a clip from the Literacy Shed https://www.literacyshed.com/nightzoo.html which gave us directions on how to create our character. 

Here are some wonderful, short pieces of writing. 

Ken the Griffen 

Ken has spots all over his body that glow in the dark. His wings are as hot as the sun. His beak is as shiny as a diamond. Ken lives in the far woods in an invisible cave, only Griffen's can see the cave.

Hayley the fat, happy Hedgehog 

Hayley has a fat tummy like a big elephant. He has tiny teeth but are razor sharp. He also has a spikey back but it is fluffy like a rainbow pompom. Don't be scared to touch him. Hayley lives at the top of the cold Mount Maunganui.

At the end of our session we shared our stories to a buddy and highlighted two words in our stories that we thought were amazing!
