Section B: Writing

Choose ONE of the following:

  • Look at the story pictures described below.
  • We have not given you the end of the story — what do you think will happen next?
  • We have started the story for you. Continue it in your own words.

Option 1: Tell the Story: The Seagull's Picnic

  • Picture 1: A seagull flies high above a sunny seaside town.
  • Picture 2: The seagull spots a family having a picnic on the beach, with a basket of sandwiches.
  • Picture 3: The seagull swoops down and grabs a sandwich in its beak.
  • Picture 4: A little dog jumps up, barking loudly, and chases the seagull along the sand.
  • Picture 5: The seagull flies up to its nest on the cliff, where three hungry chicks are waiting.
  • We have started the story for you: "One sunny afternoon, a cheeky seagull was circling high above a busy beach…"
  • Continue the story. What does the seagull do next? How does the family feel? What happens when the dog starts chasing it? How does the story end?
  • Remember to use describing words, and check your capital letters and full stops.
