1. Literacy Homework: Class 4 12.09.2014
We have been reading The Time Machine by H G Wells this week, and discovered that the Time Traveller’s machine was beautifully designed, and not at all what we expected.
Design your own time machine, with labelled parts, then write a paragraph to describe your design in vivid detail.
Use the checklist on the back to tick off the features you use.
I expect your best, neatest work – remember, ‘don’t stop until you’re proud’.
Don’t panic if you are worried about your drawing skills. It’s your ideas which count – we can improve your drawing skills through the year (no problem!) Keep it simple and let you written description bring your machine to life it to life.
