Writing about emotions in English – Y6

During Term 2, Year Six have been reading the novel ‘Wonder’ and analysing the emotions of the main character Auggie Pullman, who has a rare genetic condition. We conducted a mock interview with Auggie, which gave us the opportunity to ask him questions about how he felt attending school for the first time, trying to make new friends and coping with other people’s reactions or judgements. The outcome of the ‘interview’ will help inform our diary writing in English lessons, as we put ourselves in Auggie’s shoes and describe the range of emotions he experiences.
