Horsing around!

What a great photo! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Neeeeiiigh! It's a horse!

I go horse riding at Prescott riding centre. I started off with private lesson which was half an hour riding but now I am in pony club. In pony club we have an hour riding and a hour grooming sometimes less riding so we can muck out the horses. My favourite horse is Frankie (he is in the picture).
List of horses ridden:
Frankie
Teddy
Casper
Annie (not in pony club)
Sally (huge)

100wc - week 6:

The prompt this week is...

...what is that?...

So this might be part of some speech, you might describe an object and then ask 'what is that?' at the end, or whatever else your imagination can think of!

100wc - week 5...

We're back to a regular style of prompt this week - part of a sentence that you need to include in your piece of work...

...the temperature dropped suddenly and...


So you have 105 words in total. We'll not be doing the 100wc in class this week as we'll be finishing off our Hercules stories. Why not have a go at the 100wc at home and then email it (or get an adult to) - the address is ash.greenfields@gmail.com - any entries that get sent in will go on the blog!

Remember to use some of the sentence types we've been looking at (2A, 3ED, 2 pairs, similes, etc...). Show off just how good your writing is becoming!

Adras the Greek visits Ash Class!

Adras the Greek:
Helped us on our magical quest to find at least six Greek words that have survived through the ancient times up to the present day but we found  about twenty-one words in total: democracy, alphabet, disc-discus, mathematics, philosophy and loads of other words too. We also played some games like… making human chariots in our tables, training to be Spartan warriors and playing guessing games with Adras! We did it all in the ancient Greek times with Jenny. And obviously learned all sorts of things about the Ancient Greeks!
