Making a plan for my writing

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 found it easy to make plan and use it because I only had to put one or two words in the plan. I feel hiamo(excited) about my writing because I was easily able to write 2 or more sentences about each idea in my plan.

Swimming fun

At the swimming sports I was in the first and fourth event. The water in the pool was cold. I liked the fourth  event. But my favourite one was the dolphin dives because I had to jump and dive.

Features of fiction texts

We are learning about the features of fiction texts. They are characters, setting and plot. The plot has a problem and a solution. The solution is how the problem in the story is fixed.  I find it easy to talk about these features for different books.

Counting on from the bigger number

We are learning to count on from the bigger number. We have to start at the number after the bigger number. Then we have to look at the other number to know how many more to count. It is easy for me to count on from the bigger number.
