The Ultimate Guide to Elves and Sprites!
Information with a touch of ‘faction’! This week, you are going to be writing an information text about a type of elf or sprite. Of course, these are mythological figures. Even though this is a non-fiction genre of writing, we can still be inventive and creative. We like calling it FACTION because the form fits information about facts but the content is fiction.
Look at the document attached and complete the range of activities set.
