Writing Term 2

I am learning how to write more than one idea with details related to the topic.

We have been curious about our classroom frog and decided to find out a bit more about him.  We have created word clouds to show some of the things we have learned.

Writing Term 1

I am learning to write more than one idea about a topic

I like story-writing.  I like to write about 'My Weekends'.  Sometimes story-writing is tricky because I don't know how to spell the words.  I have to sound them out and underline them.

I Am Learning To Tell Add Details To My Writing

I am learning to add details to my writing.  

I can write when something happened.

"I can write about what happened.  I can write the day it happened too.  I can use the day cards to help me write the day.  I can check on the whiteboard too."

Writing Term 3

Writing Progressions 1P:
I am learning to

• add some detail to my writing
• choose words to make my writing more interesting

We wrote about about a Kapa Haka Performance that we watched in the auditorium during Māori Language Week.  First we wrote 2 sentences and then the next day we added some more writing to make our stories more interesting.

"I like to write about being at school and all the things I like to do.  I can use the abcd cards to help me spell the tricky words.  I am a good writer."

Writing Term 2

I am learning to spell some high frequency words correctly.

"I can check the alphabet card.  I can check in my homework book too.  Sometimes it's tricky finding the right word." Holly

Writing Term 1

I am learning to use a simple plan for my writing.

I can draw a picture about my story to help me when I am writing.

"I like writing about my family.  I love my family.  I can draw my mum and my dad and me." Holly

Story Writing

We have been learning to make our pictures match our story.

"The fireworks were loud."
