ENGLISH - To create a story map plan

Year 6 are almost at the end of the journey around Wolves in the Walls. We finished the book by watching a recorded video of the story. We then spent some time playing with alliteration to create our own story titles such as: Elephants in the Elevator; Pigs in the Pantry; kangaroos in the Kitchen; Bees in the Bathroom and so many more amazing ideas!

Then, we looked at creating our own story map using key words and symbols/pictures to record our ideas ready for writing next week.

Once this was understood, the children identified the latitude and longitude for different places on the world map.
