My special place


I was learning how to use my senses to add detail to my writing so that I can make my writing more interesting  for my readers.
I was proud of my writing because I put lots of detail into it.The part that was tricky for me was what could we smell because it was hard to find the right words.
My next step is to use my skills in my other writing to add detail.

Retelling a story


                                                    My reflection
I have been learning to retell the story.
I used a story pyramid to help me retell the story treasure by the sea
I think I did well at retelling the main events.  My next step is make and justify inferences.
