We know it's important to hook our readers when writing, but it's also important to keep them hooked and reel them in to the very end. We're learning about 'Show not Tell' this week. This writing technique is all about using our senses to describe something, rather than just telling what it is. Mrs T acted out some feelings, and we had to guess what feeling she was showing us. Then we talked about all the things we could see - for example, Mrs T didn't tell us she was angry, instead she showed us by stomping around with her hands clenched into fists. Next we buddied up and had a first go at writing our own little Show not Tell sentences. Ask us to "tell" you all about it!
