Topics to be covered in class

Paragraph Writing- Writing Paragraphs from our notes, using dress ups "ly words" and strong verbs in our sentence writing.

Spelling- We will begin our spelling course as we ran out of time to finish it last week.

Blogging: We will continue to work on our favourite things pages, but we will also be reacting to an article I will have posted on the blog.

Don't forget that you should be reading each other's blogs as well as responding to them. As you can see I have a dot from Southern Australia on my clustrmap. Hopefully you will too!

Hey everyone! Long time no hear! Check out my latest post and try to create your own wordle.

Use a paragraph from your writing folder to create your wordle!

Try a favourite poem or article and paste it into wordle to see what main ideas "pop" out!
