I would like to thank Vincent at MFLresources for this fabulous idea, and have attached a photo of one the pupil books to give an idea of how it looks.
snowball = error
tree = accurate
penguin = good
penguin on skis = fab.
I began by giving out very few trees to encourage good accuracy, then there seemed to be a fight over who would get the first penguin.
To be honest the pupils seemed to really want to see my pathetic attempts at drawing a penguin on skis rather than wanting it for its own sake.
Really positive lesson.

Thank you for sharing this so generously. I'm going to come back to it when I'm not so fuzzy headed after a late night of work but a couple of questions: do you do this in one lesson or is your marking done after the lesson. I very rarely do any extended writing in lessons (40 mins quite restrictive) so I'm going to give this a go when I get my head around it!
I tend to do this in about 20-30mins as part of the lesson. It is crucial for the pace and competition that the sentences are marked one by one.
