Poem

I can make a hairbrush with plants.

Sometimes they are pumpkin seeds.

I like red and green and blue flowers.

I like birds in the trees.

I like healthy fruits.

Feather writing

 This week we went on a hunt in the playground to see if we could find some feathers. We didn’t find any but luckily our teachers had collected some so then we came back to class and wrote about them using our senses of sight and touch to describe them. Here is my work:

I saw a feather outside it looked really like a seagulls feather. I played with it then I put it back then it flew away.  I  saw a baby bird and it was a black and white with a feather.

The feather was pointy and soft and it's out of a real life bird I never saw it. It was a long    feather like a seagull.  Native birds are good for trees. Once I saw a feather and I liked it.

Catching the Sun

We have been learning about narrative writing. We rewrote a story called Catching the Sun Here is my story. 

Creating a Game

This week, to end our procedure writing topic, we have been creating our own game. I made a board game. My theme was Bugs and Ladders.

 You have to shake a dice and move your counter that amount of spaces. If you land on a ladder you move up and when you land on a snake you need to go down. The first person to get to the finish is the winner.

Procedure Writing

 We have been learning to write a procedure. I know a procedure has to have materials and steps. My steps have to be in order.
