George and the Dragon writing

Friday 24 June 2022

This week in Year 1 we have been looking at the story ‘George and the Dragon’ by Chris Wormell! It is a very funny story about a huge, fierce dragon who is terrified of… mice!!

We learnt a class version of the story and then began to change it to make it our own. We invented our own dragon and thought about how fierce it was! Then we decided what our dragon would be so fearful of. We had some great ideas: frogs, snails, worms, birds and even chickens!!

The next step was drawing a story map of our ideas and practising telling it to our classmates. We had a great time sharing our stories in the sun!

The final stage was the writing! We were very keen to get going and showed amazing stamina for writing! Everyone in Year 1 was so proud of the finished writing! Well done to all the children!
