Writing Time...
Today Miss Hines shared this picture and the story starter with us. Our job is to look at the picture and then create a descriptive piece of writing. We haven't quite finished but when we do some of us will post our awesome writing on the blog!

Brrrrr It's Cold!
It has been so cold the past two mornings so today we decided to write about how we hate getting out of bed to come to school! Check out Michael's fantastic, descriptive piece of writing:
It was morning. Outside, the frosty wind, howling. Everything in its path, frost. Inside, under the damp blankets, me. Frozen and shivering. I hear, footsteps, outside my door. No, this can't, this can't be happening. There getting closer, closer. I try and hide, under my pillow, but I know, it was no, use. They would find me, take me, to where I dreaded most. School. The door creeps open. I can see the menacing hand, slowly coming into view. This is the end.
What do you think of Michael's writing? Leave him a comment on the thing you like the most about it. He would be stoked if you did!

Room One's Moon Writing!
Room One came to share their fantastic writing with us about the moon! We learnt a lot, especially Miss Hines, who was so disappointed to find out that the moon wasn't made of cheese! :-(
