To write a diary entry from the perspective of the child portrayed in this film.
Using a short animation as a prompt we used a visible thinking strategy practiced as homework last week.
I see…
I think…
I wonder…
The following was created as a rubric to assess our writing
1. Dear Diary, including date.
2. Written in first person, I form
3. Express feelings about the situation.
4. Express secrets and wishes/dream
5. Asking questions
Extension:
Let's imagine this child gets the right to go to school, sometime in the future.
Write a new diary entry
Well done to all children who contributed to the I see... I think... I wonder... homework prompt from last week. It stimulated a very thoughtful pre Big Writing discussion. Super!
