This week Year 4 have been writing diary entries.  We thought carefully about the features to include, for example, time conjunctions, informal language and writing in the first person.  We linked this with our class book ‘The One and Only Ivan’ by Katherine Applegate.  The book is about a gorilla called Ivan who lives in a cage with some other circus animals.  We all chose our favourite character from the story and wrote a diary entry from their point of view.
