5SC coloured1 150x150 5 Sentence Challenge #7

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

This is the 5 Sentence Challenge which is a creative writing challenge for young emerging writers who are just starting out with their writing. It is not for fluent writers who should visit 100 Word Challenge as that is more appropriate for them!

Thank you so much for all the entries to the picture of the vets last time. Here are the showcase pieces. Remember, they are not the best but had something about them!

********** SHOWCASE #6 **********

Bailea at Our Lady of the Southern Cross, Wynhamvale,

Dan in Yr.2 at High Lawn Primary

Chloe in Yr.1 via SJBTeaching

George in Yr.2 at Moorland Federation

Elbie in Yr.3 at St Michael on the Mount, Bristol

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

I have been away for a few days on holiday and that is why I’m a bit behind with my comments on the children’s work. I will get to them eventually so don’t worry! I thought it might be good fun to get them thinking about my trip. I went to New York in America. It has lots of sky scrapers and of course the Statue of Liberty. So the theme for this challenge is this picture of New York. It is not a real photograph but shows what it is like.

If this is your first visit here do read ‘How to Enter the Challenges’ If you are still a bit muddled leave me a comment below or tweet me (@theheadsoffice) and I’ll help you out.

Please make sure you visit other entries. It is really important that children develop a sense of community and support by going to other schools to leave a constructive comment. It is a good teaching point!

The link will stay open until 30th May

5SC coloured 5 Sentence Challenge #3

URGENT!

  • Please make sure that you post the correct challenge. We had some 100 Word Challenge pieces last week. They do not have Team100WC looking at them. Please take care and read the title of the post!
  • Please make sure that children who post here are not able to do 100WC. This is a precursor to more fluent writing and is not really for those children who are already confident writers
  • Please make sure you visit some other entries. It could be a good exercise to do it on a Thursday morning when the link is closed so that you can visit the last ones to come in.
Well we had lots of energy in the writing last week with you all leaping around for Leap Year! It is so difficult to chose some for the showcase but we have done our best and here they are:
**********Showcase#2 **********
********************
Don’t forget to ‘SIGN UP’ if you haven’t yet!
Today is 1st of March which is officially the first day of Spring so the theme for this challenge is ‘In the Garden’.
Now you may like to write about the different plants that are growing. I know my daffodils are up far too soon because it has been so mild. You might have lots of birds that visit. Or maybe you have animals like squirrels, hedgehogs, moles and foxes visit. Of course, the 5SC is about writing creatively so you can make it all up!.
The link will be open until 14th March.
If you are new here, do go and read ‘How to Join the 100WC’ tab at the top. The process is exactly the same! If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments or tweet me @theheadsoffice.
