Year 3 - How to make your writing more exciting for your reader?

To improve our writing we have been looking at synonyms for adjectives! We decided to no longer use big and small because we found words that are so much more exciting!


We searched in dictionaries when unsure. Looked at the words for clues, to make us better writers.


We also investigated the meaning, to avoid choosing the wrong word. We played around with the word dreadful, do you know which one is correct?

The dreadful boy kicked the ball away?
The dreadful girls were helping each other?

We cannot wait to use these exciting adjectives in our next piece of writing in class! Are there any exciting adjectives that you can investigate with your child that are new and exciting in their languages?
