Year 4 have been hard at work over the past week working on some fabulous stories based on the Borrowers, a classic piece of British fiction.
Written by Mary Norton in 1952, this book introduces us to Arietty – a tiny ‘Borrower’, who takes items she needs to survive from the larger human ‘beans’ who live upstairs. We’ve taken Arietty into our Year 4 classroom and written about what she might borrow from our surroundings.
The children worked brilliantly to plan, draft and publish pieces of great writing. They’ve shared these stories with each other:
Shared them with Year 5:
and with Year 3:
Well done on some fantastic pieces of writing!
