Tuesday's lesson

We have brainstormed ideas and words in relation to the concept of growing up. Look at the advertisement picture again and plan an imaginative response which involves the girl as a character and which challenges the representation of growing up constructed in the advertisement. Your choice of genre and your choice of point of view. You could write as the girl or as one of her friends or as her parent. You could narrate an event, write a letter, write a journal entry or a news report. Work on using language very precisely to construct your representation. Remember that well chosen verbs can bring your writing to life as well as positioning the reader to understand the ideas, attitides and values underpinning your text. Finish for homework and post to your blog by Friday's lesson.
