Stories with familiar settings

We have been reading the story 'The Pirates Next Door' by Jonny Duddle. We acted out the story, wrote letters to the council complaining about pirates and wrote our own story all about the pirates next door.

Non-Chronological Reports

We received a letter from 'Jim Lad' one of the characters from' The Pirates Next Door' asking for help. He was worried he was not looking after his dog properly.
We decided we needed to write a booklet.
A visitor came with her dog Arlo. She told us how to care for a dog and showed us some of the things we needed. Her dog was very well behaved. 
We used this information to help us write our booklets.
