Wild Self

Wildself Image

I saw the Wild Self, Eva from Room 9 at Vardon created and thought it looked like fun.  You might want to have a go at creating one yourself.

Adding Detail to our Writing and Pictures



I wrote a story about a pirate and the children decided that my story could be better because I only used simple sentences and didn't include any detail.  They are rewriting my stories.  As we finish them we will publish them in our learning blogs. Kacey, Maddox, Macie and Petra's are published.

This was my story...
Once there was a pirate.  He went on a boat.  He saw an island.  The pirate landed on the island.  He found some treasure.

Have a read on the learning blogs and see if the children managed to improve my story.

We are also drawing pictures of the pirate in our story, making sure we add detail to our drawings.  We will share these soon.

Kidsedchatnz







We had a busy afternoon tweeting!  Our topic this week was rules.  Before lunch we watched a little cartoon about rules and talked through the Kidsedchatnz questions to prepare our ideas for this afternoon.  It was great to see the children supporting each other in writing their tweets.
