This is an independent piece of writing following a two- to three-week sequence based on I Don’t Believe it, Archie! by Andrew Norriss.
The story follows an episodic pattern and this writing provides an additional chapter for the book, mimicking the author’s style and plot structure but with an original idea for the story.
Students are tasked with spotting spelling, punctuation and grammar errors and analysing the language.
