Jack Trelawny 'inspires children' at Radwinter Primary

Author Jack Trelawny inspires children at village school

        

World Book Day came early to Radwinter Primary School

Author Jack Trelawny inspires children at village school

Jack Trelawny, author of the Kernowland series of books, visited the school and talked about his work and books, and what inspired them with ideas for creating imaginary characters and settings.

Year 6 pupil Lauren Porthouse said: “The talk was truly inspirational and will definitely help with our story writing.”

Class 4 teacher Mrs Powell added “The children were enthralled by his talk. His mythical characters certainly captured their imagination.

“Many of the children bought signed copies of his books and were looking forward to reading them to find out more about the magical land of Kernowland.”

Writing Ideas - Vocabulary game - Gonch

Writing Ideas - Vocabulary

When I visit schools, I show children some of the ideas I've learned about writing with My Story House. Writing is an important part of communicating with others. You need to write in a way your reader can easily understand what you are trying to tell them. Vocabulary refers to all of the words we use to read, talk, and write. When you use vocabulary well, you can speak more clearly, read lots of different texts, and write down your ideas in a much more interesting way. The more words you know, the more you will have to say! Games can be fun way to learn things about writing. Try the 'Vocabulary' game with Gonch below.

Writing Ideas - Story Planning game - Trapped

Jack Trelawny's Story House - Writing Ideas for kids - Story Planning game - Trapped!

Writing Ideas - Story Planning

When I visit schools, I show children some of the ideas I've learned about planning a story and share with them how important I think it is to make a plan with My Story House. Set the scene at the beginning, try to build up the excitement in the middle, and, at the end, say what happens to the characters, clear up mysteries, and tie up any loose ends. Remember, it's fine to make rough, scribbled notes when planning (as long as you can read them!) but always use neat, clear writing when it comes to writing the story itself. Games can be fun way to learn things about writing. Try these writing games and complete the Wall of Sorrow - or you'll be... Trapped!

Writing Ideas - Reports

When I visit schools, I show children some of the ideas I've learned about writing with My Story House. Writing is an important part of communicating with others. You need to write in a way your reader can easily understand what you are trying to tell them. A report is a formal text that gives you information about a subject that you are interested in and would like to know more about. It is different from a recount or an explanation text because it isn't written in the order that things happen. Games can be fun way to learn things about writing. Try the 'Reports' game below.
