Look at some of our fantastic pieces of writing!
We have been working really hard on planning our writing by drawing a picture. After we have drawn our picture we talk to a buddy and tell them about it. We are getting really good at this skill!
Week 5: We have been learning to read our writing as we go, so it makes sense when we read it out loud. We have been trying to remember to do this every time we write a story!

Term Three Week 2: We have been learning to write explanations. We wrote about the korus that we made, and how we made them.
Week 7: We are working on using adjectives and simile's in our writing. We are working on describing different things in detail, and making sure we use descriptive words, such as colours, shapes and sizes.
