Mrs Davison has been looking at your English books and the amazing stories you have written in Year 3. We have told her that in our English lessons this half term we have been reading folk tales. This is her favourite genre! She has asked Mrs Ali and Mrs Pickup if they will let you write some folk tales of your own to share with her so that she can show them off to some of our special visitors.
SO today we are going to be gathering ideas for writing our own folk tales.
Because we have been learning a story, we are going to ‘steal’ some of the ideas, but change some of them to make each story your own.
Our stories will be set in an English county. Which ones should we select for us to choose from?
