LC: To plan a recount diary.

Look back at the plan that we completed together. Today you are going to think of new ideas and decide the location of where the Iron Man is stood.

 

1. First choose your location

Forest

Jungle with a waterfall

Woods

Your teacher will give you your chosen setting.

Around your chosen setting, you are going to think of some powerful descriptive words.

Below are some to help you. 

Thick, deep, dense, - forest, jungle or woods

Rough, sharp, thorny, spiky - branches, brambles, bushes, forest floor

Creepy, eerie, mysterious, sinister, menacing, dangerous - waterfall, woods

Thick vines like emerald green ropes.

Narrow winding trail through a tangle of thorny brambles.

Decaying carpet of rotting leaves and dead branches.

Roots like enormous wooden tentacles.

Spread and twisted together like a prehistoric beast.

 

Add your notes to your plan on your table.

 

Now, let's choose where your character falls from. 

The top of a canopy? A waterfall? 

The spear-like branches had tips like fingernails.

In the canopy, the tops of the trees were joined together like a crowd of vivid-green umbrellas.

Choose what your character falls on to.

Don't forget to add your notes on to the table above.
