In Room 8 we have been looking at how we can 'show not tell' in our writing to paint a picture in the readers mind.

We watched a story starter written by a New Zealander called Greg Broadmore who is a Weta Workshop Artist.

Captain Taniwha and the Sticky Space Snot – "What happens next?" animated video from Ministry of Education on Vimeo.

After watching the video we each finished the story ourselves...remembering to try and show not tell.
