Good Friends Explanation Writing

We are learning to write explanations this term.  For writing today we have thought of our ideas and followed the new structure to explain how to be a good friend.  We have thought of our sentences, used time connectives and extended our sentences using conjunctions.  Each sentence finishes with a full stop.  We have videoed our writing thinking and will use this to help our writing tomorrow.  It is uploaded on youtube but nobody else in the world can see it, unless they have this link.

Our goals for Term 3

Interesting places to read

In the holidays Ella read a magazine to her sister in her cubby house.  Ella made the cubby house with two chairs and a blanket.  It looks like a happy place to read a story.

In the holidays Henry read a book to his mum in his tent.  The tent is inside their house where it is warm!  It looks like he had a great time in his tent.  We think it is an interesting place to read.
