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 a plan because I only needed to write a few words. The rest of the writing can be tricky for me.

Swimming fun

I did the starfish floating event. The person who floated the longest won. My favourite was the freestyle because you had to kick your legs. I liked the kicking with a board race because you got to hold the board.

Here I was learning about half and quarter.  I found it tricky to show half of the group of flowers. I did it wrong. I have learnt how to write quarter in numbers.

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. Sometimes the problem in the story can be dangerous. I find it easy to talk about these features for different books.
