The Arrival!

Welcome to your own personal English Blog!  This is designed to help you with English lessons at school.

We have been studying 'The Arrival' by Shaun Tan.  This is a really lovely book about arriving in a strange place and so far you have:

  • Read the whole story
  • Begun to explore how we can 'read' a book without words
  • Examined how a writer can structure description by 'zooming in' and 'zooming out'

On Wednesday 26th Sept you designed your own creature.

HW that is due on Friday 28th Sept is to:

       Find an example of a description of someone arriving at a new place.  This could be from a novel or a non-fiction book.
       Bring this in (or print it out if it is on the internet). 
       It only needs to be ONE paragraph in length!
See you then

Mrs Roberts
