Homework

This week's homework is READING. Or at least, writing about something you have read.

As you know, it's your mission to read something fabulous every night.

This week, I want you to write a letter, or a diary entry, pretending to be one of the characters from your favourite novel.

You need to write in character, using the kind of speech patterns that they would use. (Like when we wrote letters pretending to be the main character in 'Two Weeks With The Queen'.) It would be a good idea if you could make the diary entry be about something very exciting that has happened in the story.

As usual, I'm looking for the 6 (+1) traits of good writing in your finished pieces and they should be at least 400 words long
