Pens writing group

Today at writing time, the pens group were learning to use the structure of writing a recount. They had to include an opening sentence, time connectives, feelings and a closing sentence. There was a lot to remember and they all did a great job. We chose Evie's story to be read out for our blog today because she worked hard to include a closing sentence and it was an interesting story for her audience. Next time, she will need to try and include some time connectives and then it will be an AWESOME recount. Well done Evie!

What was tricky today?

Evie found printing tricky today because we had to get the bar in the right place. Jess and Aileen found it tricky today when she had to lie on her back at swimming. Henry found it tricky today at publishing time to copy the words from his story. Misha found it tricky today writing her story for publishing. Jackson found it tricky today at publishing time copying his writing from his writing book. Jordan found it tricky today at publishing time today copying the words in his story. Lots of us enjoyed swimming today! Other people liked drawing pictures and reading. Miss Browne was proud of us today because we learnt how to assess our own handwriting using a green highlighter and some faces.
