Number sentences

I am learning to make groups of 5 and write number sentences. 

"I had to write a number sentence. I got two green teddies and three blue teddies. Altogether there was five. I like writing number sentences." 

Writing for a purpose

We published our story. Our story was about mum. Mum was our word of the week and it was going to be mothers day. We wrote our story so Mum could read it. We have been learning that we write for a purpose. The purpose of our story was to tell Mum something we like about her.

"I had to draw a picture of my mum so I could give it to mum. My story was about my mum so I could give it to her. It can be tricky to spell some words."

Retelling my story

I am learning to retell my story. 

"I had to draw a picture of the nanny. We are learning to retell our story. It can be tricky to retell the story. It makes me happy when I read the story by myself."
