Shopping Stories

This weeks writing challenge was to write a shopping story using our 1, 2, 3 Story Plan.

Our stories are about going shopping in a store. The stories needed to have an Introduction (1), some Action (2) inside the store and an End (3) When we left the store.

On writing day one we picked a store to write about and then wrote a practice story 1,2,3 Story Plan with our Language Group to learn how to use the writing plan. 

We shared our stories with the other groups and then started to work on our own story plan. 

On writing day two Kevin challenged us to include a sentence or two about other shoppers in our story. To give us some ideas for shopper characters we:

Watched the Mr Bean Shopping video

Then we made up an interesting character to act out.

Aidan = Old man

Brennan = Little boy (tantrum)

Lauren = Happy girl

Bradley = Angry customer

Keenen = Shopping with headphones

Joseph = Katy Perry the music star

Natasha = 3 year old girl

Finn = Stan Smith the music star

Michael = Police Man

Jordan = 6 year old boy

We practiced shopping and speaking as our character.

Then we wrote about the other shoppers in our Shopping stories.

On writing day three Kevin challenged us to include a sentence or two about the voices and sounds in our Shopping stories. To help us get some idea about voices and sounds we watched the Mr Bean Super Trolley video.

Then we wrote more in our Shopping stories about the other shoppers voices and the noises we could hear in the store.

On writing day three we will write some more and then read our story in a characters voice. When we are happy with the stories we publish them on our blogs.
