Robots

My Class 4 pupils have recently had a fun and creative writing lesson. 

I asked them to imagine themselves as robot designers and write about their very own robots. It was a great way to practise words for body parts, colours, and everyday activities.

We started with a mind map on the board. Together, we came up with what their writing should include: name, appearance, character, material, skills, and price. They copied the mind map into their notebooks and picked the words they wanted—for example, big or small, metal or plastic, helpful or funny.

Then, each pupil wrote a short paragraph describing their robot. A few volunteers read theirs aloud and received positive feedback.
