This week in writing we have had a few goals we are working towards...
On Monday we wrote about our weekend and thought carefully about using conjunctions to write compound sentences. We know that by writing these types of sentences we add more interest to our stories. We highlighted the conjunctions so when we shared with our writing with our buddy we could talk about our conjunctions.
Then on Tuesday and Wednesday we wrote about a trip into space. We explored the idea of good writing starting from a fact or true idea and then adding our imagination. Joy Cowley does this. Her Greedy Cat books started from the fact she has a fat cat and then she added her imagination to it.
We took some facts about Space and added our imaginations so that when we visited Mars (who has the highest mountains) we slid down them on rubbish bags!
Some of us shared our writing with Mrs Nicholl and Mr Reid!
We simply love writing in Ruma Ruru.
You all are amazing authors and should be so proud of yourselves. I can imagine that going to read your stories to Mr Reid and Mrs Nicholl is one of those "proud tear" moments. All of you Ruru's should be so happy with the improvement that you have made during the year. I feel very lucky that I can watch and help your amazing ideas get from your very hairy brains to your amazing stories. Love Jo (Lucy's mum) xo
