Literacy
This week, you are going to write your own version of the story of The Iron Man. You will create your own character, setting and storyline based on the events in The Iron Man.
Today, you are going to design your own character instead of the Iron Man, that will be the main character and focus of your new version of the story.
First, you must draw your character and colour them in. Then, label the materials/objects that make up your character. Use a thesaurus to find interesting adjectives that describe your characters personality and appearance. Here is a link to an online thesaurus: https://www.thesaurus.com/
These adjectives can be used in your story at the end of the week when you introduce your main character.
