We have been learning the story of Burglar Bill by heart. We are now going to change the story and write our own version. We are changing the name and what he steals and keeping the rest the same. We will write this together over the next couple of days focussing on correct spellings or phonetically plausible spellings.

In class we will discuss and plan a change story using the ideas and many words from Burglar Bill. This time our main character will be a Sneaky Santa who goes into people's houses and instead of leaving toys he takes toys. We will use the same format as Burglar Bill, so he will take someone's toy, then meet a Sneaky Santa lady who helps him to realise his mistake so he returns all the toys and becomes the good Santa we know today.
We will start the story today and finish it tomorrow.
