Superstars of Writing

As part of our writing programme in room 14 we try new and innovative ways of getting motivated to write. One of the most popular is for the students to be able to take on a new character and write from that persons perspective. Recently we did this with the students dressing up and writing in character. Here are some examples of their writing:

"Hi, I am princess fairy Katie. I have a black dress on and a pink halo too. I am going to an adventure in a mysterious cave. In the mysterious cave is one large dragon. He can breathe fire but I have a sword. I can hit him with all of my might. I cut his leg straight off him and I live happily ever after. the end."

"Hi, I am Amelia the Reindeer. I have a piece of fabric. I am going to have a sleep at the North Pole and eat carrots. My owner is Santa's wife."

 "Today I am super piggy and I have a cape. I can jump like a frog. I am going to kill super kitty because she is my worst enemy and she stinks like a hairy porpoise in a bucket of worms. When I kill her victory will be mine mwah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"Hello I am Lachlan the pirate and I am the boss. I am wearing a pirate hat and a pirate suit. I am going to sail the salty seas and find some treasure. It is going to fly in the air and then we are going to take it back on the ship and go home and have a rest. The next time I won't be going because it will be the holidays and I am going to have a party. It will be amazing and I am going to have a good time. A very very good time."

"I am a beautiful princess, a pink princess. I have 2 pets.  One of my pets is a baby deer the other is a kitten. I love being a princess."

"Once upon a time there was a castle in the woods. There was also a scary monstrous dragon and it was terrifying to see. It was despicable and vicious. Then we move to the castle. The castle was a miracle. Inside the castle it was sparkly and charming. I hope you enjoyed my story."

"I am super Caleb and I am wearing a cape. I am going to save people from the robbers. I am going to use time travel to fly quickly so that I am there before the baddies get there. Then I can get the baddies."
