KS3 English 2023
Since September the KS3 pupils have got stuck into their learning, as we dive into multiple stories, create our own stories and continue to develop confidence.
Year 7
As we welcome the new year 7s into KS3 English, we have started the year by looking at Autobiographies and who we are, as well as writing our own autobiographies. We have then progressed into looking at the story of Alice in Wonderland and writing character descriptions and practicing writing our own imaginative stories.
Year 8
The year 8's this half term have completed their first entry level paper. We have been studying the book Kensuke's Kingdom, looking at sailing around the world and learning how to write postcards. They have also learnt about addresses - why we have them, the order they go in and what a postcode is.
Year 9
Starting their final year of KS3 the year 9's have been exploring the story Of Mice and Men. We have explored the context behind the story, looking at events such as 'The Great Depression' and 'The Dust Bowl'. They have shown maturity around topics such as race, classism and disabilities. They have produced some lovely pieces of work this half-term.
