Last week, 5/6J read ‘The Z was Zapped’ by Chris Von Allsburg. In this picture book, each letter ‘performs’ on a stage and unfortunately they all go through a series of mishaps.

5/6J then had to write their own sentences for each letter, using an action starting with the same letter and perhaps an adverb.

Finally 5/6J had to choose one letter to illustrate. Together we will display these letters to make our own Alphabet!

 These girls in the video below made their own video as a response to the book. Check it out!

 

 So tell us 5/6J, what was your alphabet sentence that you chose to illustrate?
