Chocolate

 This writing task was about a language experience. Our teachers brought different kinds of chocolate to school and we got to eat it! We tried white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel chocolate and pink chocolate. We could write about it in any way we liked but our teachers hoped we would use lots of describing language and our senses.

The Old Church

 In Week 7, our class went to look at the outside of the old church building which is next to our school. We had to write using lots of adjectives, adverbs, specific nouns and vivid verbs so that we described it well. We tried to remember to use ideas from our senses and to write about not just what we thought the old church looked like but also how it made us feel.

We are learning that Basic Punctuation means that you have a capital letter at the start of a sentence, and a full stop, question mark or exclamation mark at the end of every sentence when you do a piece of writing.

Here is my recount about monarch butterflies.

Butterflies

Last week at school Team Moana went around the back to check on the swan plants and see the monarch life cycle .

We went to get our shoes on then we lined up. We started to walk to the swan plants. Some people were grabbing mint to eat.

As soon as we got to the swan plants people started spotting eggs and black, white and yellow striped caterpillars.

Eventually people started seeing monarch butterflies and a chrysalis. A lot of the chrysalides have had a butterfly pop out of it.

I enjoyed going to find out more about monarch butterflies.
