Story Writing:

Using your plan write your version of events as Naledi and Tiro get closer to finding their mother. Try to use all the features that we have discussed since September:

• descriptions using adjectives.
• speech using speech marks.
• punctuation used for different sentence types ? and ! for example. 
• paragraphs used to change place or time.

Try to write around a page of A4 at least. add details to make the story seem real. Where do they go? What do they do? How do they feel?

Please email me your finished story so I can read it.
