This week, we have been creating our own Land of
Imagination! Write a blurb about your story. A blurb gives a
short description about your story, without giving away too
much detail. Remember, you created an introduction to the
land, a new character and speech about how Fi-Rx got back
from the Land of Imagination.

Next week, we will be looking at different types of words. Read through this
text and sort the words into verbs, nouns, adjectives, and adverbs.
Verb – a doing or being word.
Noun – A person, place or thing
Adjective – a word to describe a noun
Adverb - a word to describe a verb
For example:
Fi-Rex ran quickly through the sparkling, sugary land.
Jim wondered towards a shop. He quietly opened the door,
so the scary, old shopkeeper wouldn’t see him. Slowly, Jim
crept inside, looking for some juicy, jelly sweets. He saw the
jar. His hand carefully crept towards it, but someone was
watching him…
