Mr Pedlely's story(THE BFG)was amazing I could really imagine the story in my head and it was great how he didn't look at the book once he just knew it all; the afternoon session was funny and interesting I'm sure everyone enjoyed it to.

I loved Mrs Pedlely's story The BFG. I was so exciting and amazing. I really liked the way he did all of the exspressions of the different characters. I also really liked the play when he did the life of Roald Dahl. He didn't even look at the book once.

I loved Mr Pedly's story of the BFG.
It was so exciting!He knew the story from his mind and I was fascinated that he didn't even need the book. I wonder what's next in our story!

I really enjoyed Mr Pedly`s play about the BFG. I liked how he didn't look at the book once and how he was being different characters. He was funny in the afternoon session. Also it was fantastic, amazing and interesting about how rohld Dahl lived when he was younger and how he was treated.
I am enjoying the book so far.

Helllo eveyone,
In Barnack it's thundering and lightning its raining heavily too!We will probably need wellies and a thick coat if it carries on.
The lightning is quite shocking and close it's almost scary.

Hope you all have a good day!

Cameron- very good research on Roald Dahl. Please remember capital letters for proper nouns and those full-stops at the end of sentences!
