This week, we looked at some unusual animal combinations and used our imaginations to develop our own mythical animal. For example, an animal with a giraffe neck, elephant ears, and the tail of a fish!
Through creating and drawing these wonderful creatures in Art, we did lots of 'talking for writing' with partners. We learnt lots of new descriptive words and phrases, created some facts about our mythical animals, and even considered how we could best display them in an information text.
We then used our pictures to help us with our 'Big Writing' which was to write an information text all about our newly created animal.
