English - Character descriptions
Hannah loved gorillas. She read books on gorillas, she watched gorillas on
television and she drew pictures of gorillas. Unfortunately, she had never seen a
real gorilla.
Her father didn’t have time to take her to see one at the zoo. He didn’t have time for
anything. He went to work every day before Hannah went to school, and in the
evening he worked at home.
When Hannah asked him a question, he was too busy to reply.
“Not now. Maybe at the weekend,” he would say. Sadly, at the weekend he was
always too tired. They never did anything together.
The night before her birthday, Hannah went to bed tingling with excitement - she
had asked her father for a gorilla!
In the middle of the night, Hannah woke up and saw a very small parcel at the foot
of the bed. It was a gorilla, but it was just a toy. She threw the gorilla into a corner
angrily and went back to sleep.
Use the Stukeley Six character features to describe Hannah and her father? Do your
best to write an excellent paragraph (six sentences that include adjectives and
expanded noun phrases) for each character. Do not just lazily write a list!
1. What is their name?
2. Where do they live – the setting?
3. What do they look like?
4. What do they wear?
5. What job do they have?
6. What do they like or dislike?

Our area’s biggest contributor to everyday life is AGRICULTURE. ¾ of the land in East Anglia

half of the potatoes produced in the UK are grown in East Anglia.
