Week 6 "Cancel the Invasion" - Writing for the week

 A piece of writing describing the main character from our shared book. The students get to rewrite the story in their own words pretending to be the main character. They are able to change certain parts of the story.

Hi my name is Ash, I have emerged from Planet Z to investigate humanity authority.

I have traveled here with my beastly twin Giggy Z, joyful little sister Eaze and my unpleasant older brother J Money. We have a good bond together. We are an adventurous and fearless squad and we cooperate as a family.

When my brothers and I reached our destination we were really unknown. I looked really hideous to others because of my features. They are terrify young beings and adults. I am unsightly to these humans.

"Dear Mighty Leader, I have not gathered any statistics yet for my project, I will report to you with more information soon". 

Five million years later I finally finished my project about humans and I felt proud of myself.

" Where are my brothers?" I hurried off the bench and started to search for them. I raced to the UFO "there your are - naughty aliens". Back to Planet Z we go.

Week 6 - Shared Reading

We love to do shared reading together as a class. We read a text from a school journal and analyse everything we need to about it. For example; we look at the vocabulary, figurative language used, the authors purpose, making connections to what we already know and what we want to know, predicting and visualizing what happens before or after in the story.

The story for the week was " Cancel the Invasion"
