100 Word Challenge – Week #28

You really came up with some super stories for last week’s prompt about the dragon. Here is the Showcase for WEEK #27. Remember, they are not necessarily the best entries but they are really wroth looking at again!

********** WEEK #27 SHOWCASE **********

Matthew in Yr.4 at High Lawn Primary

Emily in Yr.5 at Brunswick House

Raphael in Yr.5 at Tetherdown Primary

Abbie in Yr.6 at St Therese, Torquay, Australia

********************

This week, we continue with the theme of animals. I want you to watch this video from the Night Zoo Keeper then I will tell you what you have to do!

The zoo needs some more  keepers and to get the job you have to write a creative piece either about one of the strange animals you saw on the screen or one you have made up. You have only got 100 words so really think hard about the words you choose so that your reader could paint the picture.

As usual, if you post an entry please visit other posts. The link will be open until 9pm on 1st May

If you are new here and not sure what you have to do please read ‘How to Join 100WC’. If you still have some questions then leave them in the comments below.

Good luck with your writing and many thanks Night Zoo Keeper!

100 Word Challenge – Week#27

COMMENTING COUNTS!

We all love to get comments. Team100WC has been re-organised so hopefully you will get at least one comment from them but it may not be until after the link closes. To get more comments though YOU all need to go and visit entries. It might be something you could on a Wednesday morning as part of your literacy or ‘first thing’ work. Do let us know how you organise it and we’ll share here!

Welcome back everyone! Hope you had a great holidays and did not eat too many Easter eggs!

Here is the Showcase for Week #26

The prompt this week is linked to the 23rd April. For those of us in the UK it is St Georges Day. He is the patron saint of England and the legend tells of him slaying a dragon. So the prompt is:

…the dragon slowly stirred …

We are so excited to announce that the prompt for 25th April is going to be provided by the Night Zoo Keeper! I know lots of schools in the UK are already doing some amazing work with him so I can’t wait to see what he will ask us to write about!

Well done everyone who tackled the individual words. I think that is the most difficult of all prompts to do. Here are some that tyou should go and look at again!

Now for this week’s prompt I have decided to get you working on your conversational writing. I want you to have a go using speech in your pieces. It doesn’t have to be very much but the prompt will help. It is:

…..??? asked ‘How can I help you?’… 

The question marks are where you should put the name of whoever is speaking. This prompt was suggested by Diethild who is a member of Team100WC. She lives in Mexico and is really very keen to see what you all come up with this week!

Don’t forget you can only use 100 more words making a total of 107. Do make sure you visit other schools to leave comments. You could sign up to ‘Blogadopt’ to help with this. Also make sure you have left your class details on the Sign Up form if you haven’t already done so! Continue reading
