Icarus!!

Hello all,


This week we did a very tricky writing task. We were shown a film with no dialogue, which was an adaption of the myth Icarus. We then had to write the story of Icarus and include adverbs, powerful adjectives, paragraphs and direct speech.

Here is a chance to watch this beautiful 6 minute film;

Enjoy and well done again BFGs!
