Gifted and Talented Youngsters

I've had such a brilliant time with the Gifted and Talented children from Martin Frobisher, Lee Brigg, Normanton Newlands and Normanton Common schools. In two sessions of two hours they have all produced an entire story each - beginning, middle and end with awesome description and plot. I've really been blown away by how well they worked and how much of the time they managed to spend physically writing. Marshall and Pippa, two of the Year 1 children, were brilliant. Lucy's writing was magnificent, but so too were all the others. And some of the other boys really got into it - Toby had some BRILLIANT ideas and read his story well. I'm looking forward to working with the Key Stage 2 children on Thursday, but they've got some work to do to live up to the standard set by the youngsters. Well done everyone!
