Our scary stories

Watch out parents these stories are very scary to listen to. In Room 7 we have been using pictures as prompts for our writing. Today our picture was of an old, creepy house. We have been working on adding detail to our writing to make it more exciting for our readers. We came up with lots of 'wow' words like haunted, ghosts and terrifying. We loved to write scary stories and the board of trustees were all very scared when they were reading them. Listen to some of us read our stories but make sure you have someone with you as they are VERY scary!

What we want to know about Peka Peka

We are so excited to go to Peka Peka next Wednesday! We started to wonder about what we might see and learn when we go. Check out our video of all our wonderings.

Writing in Room 7

In Room 7 we are learning to add in full stops, question marks and exclamation marks to our writing. Today we started to learn how to proof read and edit our stories all by ourselves to make sure they make sense. We have been underlining words we think are wrong and using our dictionaries to fix them. We are getting good at re reading our stories and adding in full stops that we have missed. We are starting to learn all about conjunctions which are joining words like but, and,  and because. Some of us have been putting conjunctions after full stops. How silly are we! We know now that we use conjunctions to join two sentences together and can never put them at the start of a sentence.

Check out our awesome editing we did together.
