Narrative Writing - The Golden Compass

In order to develop skills similar to those being covered in class this term, we would like you to focus on developing tension and action in your narrative writing as well as using dialogue (speech) effectively and accurately. 

There are lots of lessons that you can work through at your own pace - some days you may complete more than one session, on others, you may need a couple of days to complete the writing task to the best of your ability. 

Use the link below to Oak National Academy lessons based on The Golden Compass.

Once you have completed your writing task, don't forget to share it with your class teacher!
