Wild Self Challenge

One of our recent Friday Challenges involved using the website http://www.buildyourwildself.com/  to create a creature with special features. Children had to design their creature and explain why they picked the body parts they did. They then got into pairs and wrote a story together. The story had to include their 'wildself' and a problem that their creature could solve thanks to its special features.

Visit the individual blogs to see the wild creatures and the great story writing.  Here's the beginning of a couple of stories to whet your appetite......

Down in the forest where the flowers all bloomed, the trees all stood still as the animals watched the Fru Fru Olympics in the village of Fru Fru Trees . The wind whistled past as the sun beamed brightly on the athletes as they got ready to compete.....

This is the beginning of Isabel and Arnika's story.

Jordan and Liam's story starts like this....

Crawler and Jobro were strolling along a rocky mountain track where you could see the blue sky and the cityscape and it was beautiful until zap pow bang. They ended up running for their lives from a gigantic boulder that was pushed down by an evil goblin.
