P2 English 

Well done everyone for your contributions this week, and working to have the focus on your learning. There is some great work  happening in paragraph writing. We will continue to work to  improve our skills in this area.

Today we are going to be looking and thinking about characterization, this is the way an author develops a character in  a written text.
We will be reading some examples together in pairs, and we will be discussing and writing about what we noticed about the descriptions.

This work will be shared with you in your Hapara work space.
