LC: To develop settings and characters through appropriate vocabulary.

Today, you are going to write like Anna Sewell did over 100 years ago!

 You will be creating a paragraph of writing from the viewpoint of a horse.

Collect vocabulary that links to a horse from the hook lesson, reading lesson linked to horses (General), extract one and extract two of Black Beauty (Horse Character and Setting). 

If you would like some help to get started, you can use extract one to help you write your paragraph.

Extract One

I was feeding quietly near the pales which separated the meadow from the railway, when I heard a strange sound at a distance, and before I knew whence it came – with a rush and a clatter, and a puffing out of smoke- a long black train of something flew by, and was gone almost before I could draw my breath. I turned, and galloped to the further side of the meadow as fast as I could go, and there I stood snorting with astonishment and fear.
