End Writing Point - To complete our first person description of wolves in the wild.
Today's lesson - Today we will be completing our first person writing of seeing wolves in the wild with our final paragraph 3. This final paragraph will be a further event that you can see taking place such as:
wolves communicating with one another,
a pack of wolves hunting prey,
the survival of wolves in the wild,
the family life in the wolf pack,
the wolves feeding on caught prey.
We will then conclude our texts with an ending statement about revisiting the wolves in the future.
(the below video from Friday repeats facts that could be used in your final paragraph and wolf book pages that we used last week are also included on the power point also giving facts that can be used within your written paragraph)
This lesson's work follows on from last Thursday and Friday's paragraph writing. Usually in class, we tend to plan and then write a detailed paragraph section each day to break up the time writing.
Follow the below power point slides to help you plan, generate ideas and see an example of our classes third and final event paragraph that describes an aspect of wolves in the wild.
