Welcome post

     I.a.l.t write and post to my blog.

Success Criteria:

I know I will be successful when I:

• make my post 4-6 sentences
• include my new room number and teacher
• include my interests
• include a goal for the year or something I am looking forward to 
• edit my work so there are no spelling mistakes and ensure that it makes senes

Welcome to my year 6 learning blog. This year I am in Room 24. My teacher is Mrs. Naidoo. I enjoy maths and learning in my class. This year I am looking forward to looking after my year 4 class. I hope you will enjoy my blog and leave lots of feedback. 

narrative

I am learning to write a narrative. A narrative is a fiction story, in other words, a made-up story. I found this hard because I did not know what the plot or the problem and the whole story was going to be about. Something I would change in my writing is to write more and use better words when possible.     I really enjoyed writing this story because I could use my imagination and no one saying that my work is bad.

Dog

I have been learning to find and summarise information by choosing the most important information. in a text we have to research and summarise information about a specific type of dog I found is tricky because some of the things I didn't know like six facts what it eats. My next step is to do more research and ask for help if I need it.

Character Actions

I am learning to relate to the characters in the text to understand their purpose. My next step is to be able to describe and explain character from the text. I found this hard at first but it got easier after I relisted that the consequence didn't have a bad consequence.

A moment in time.

I am learning to write a moment in time. To have a good moment in time you have to make sure you have the FOUR of the keywords at the start of every sentence. The four keywords are, saw heard felt and wondered. I found this easy because I already knew what an exciting moment in time it was. My next step is to use better and longer sentences when I am doing a piece of writing like this.

Summarise

I am learning to summarise a text. To summarise a text you have to first read the book and then you have to say the main highlights in the book. I found this easy to summarise the text because all I had to do was read some paragraphs and it gave me the right info that I wanted.

2D and 3D Shapes

In this activity, you have to write if it is a 2D or 3D shape.  You also have to know how much sides it has, the number of faces and the name of the shape. I found this hard because I do not know how to write the correct spelling of some words and some of these shapes I do not remember.
