In our literacy we have been enjoying a Ukrainian folktale called The Mitten by the author Jan Brett. We have read it, story mapped it and written our own favourite parts of the story. We have thought of ourselves as mini authors and even had a book reading in front of the class where we read our stories to our friends. See some of our writing below.
