Welcome to World Book Day.
Well done everyone for putting so much effort into your costumes today. You all look amazing!
Today we have been looking at the book The Hobbit written by J.R.R Tolkien.
We started the day by reading a chapter of the book paying attention to the language used. We then wrote an introduction to the day using our best handwriting.
Using the book and the film we created a wanted poster describing the 13 unruly Dwarves presence as they enter the house of the honourable Bilbo Baggins. We used a thesaurus to search for synonyms and interesting vocabulary.
After watching the extract from the film about the trolls. We created freeze frames and dialogue to recreate the scene. Acting as Trolls, Hobbits and Dwarfs you used clear pronunciation, height, position and expression to present your drama.
From the book we shared some of Gollem’s riddles. We had lots of fun trying to work them out. Some of us went on to create our own riddles, while other wrote a character description for Gollem.
We used inference to develop imagery. We read an extract from the book describing the dragon Smaug. Using the desciptive vocabulary we drew an image of Smaug.
I hope you have all had a great day.
