Making a plan

We need to have only one or a few words in our plan. The plan has to be about the topic. It needs 3 or more ideas. When we use the plan to do our writing, we need to write 2 or more sentences about each idea. The plan helps us to remember what happened. We need to start and end our writing with a sentence about the topic.

I feel good about my writing because now I can finish it in time with the rest of the class. I am most proud of my writing because now I can add more detail to my writing.

Discussing the character

Counting in from the bigger number

We are learning to count on from the bigger number. We start counting after the bigger number. We have to look at the number after the + sign to know how many to count. It is sometimes tricky for me to count on from the bigger number.

Teen numbers

I am learning about teen numbers. All teen numbers have a ten in them. Teen numbers can be tricky.

Putting full stops in the right places

I am learning to put full stops in the right places. I know that I have to put full stops at the end of every idea. It is easy to put full stops in the right places.

Swimming fun

My class went to swimming sports. My friends told me that it was fun. They had lots and lots of fun.

Learning about fractions-- half and quarter

Here I was learning about half and quarter.  I found this work easy because I just had to draw a circle or a line to show half and quarter. I have learnt that quarter means 4 equal pieces.

All about me

Finding root words

We are learning about root words. They can end with either s, ed, or ing. When you put different letters at the end, that makes new words like-- jumping, jumps and jumped. I find it tricky to find root words and to make new words with root words.
