Y3 Setting descriptions for 'Winter's Child', by Mrs Hover

Date: 5th Dec 2024 @ 10:39am

After looking at the beautiful illustrations of the forest scene, the children created similes around the picture. We then used these to create a setting description, adding more adjectives and prepositions to really paint a picture of the scene in the reader's mind. We are really proud of the children's final descriptions :)
