Year 6: English

As part of our 'Superhumans' topic, Year 6 are learning about the incredible achievements of two-time Gold medallist Paralympian Jonnie Peacock. Today, we were using images as a stimulus to sequence a voiceover for a video-trailer to give a summary of his life in preparation for writing a biography.




Our focus was on using formal language to develop a knowledgeable tone so we couldn't use contractions or colloquial language (slang). We presented our voiceovers with the images we had chosen to accompany them and gave each other feedback linked to the overall effect and how successfully we had established and maintained a formal tone.
