We have been innovating text books. We innovated Where the Wild Things are. We had to use adjectives, nouns and verbs to add interest to our writing. We are also learning how to vary the way we begin and join sentences.
Where the Wild Things Are by Renee
It was a sunny Sunday and I was in my bedroom because I broke Mum's vacuum cleaner. Suddenly my room turned into a jungle and then there was a swing. I went on the swing and it was so much fun. I jumped off the swing and landed on a tree branch. I jumped of the tree branch and then I was on a big butterfly. I went on the big butterfly and it could not hurt me but.... it could fly very high! The big butterfly landed on the ground. The big butterfly flew away. Next I saw hundreds and thousands of butterflies everywhere in the sky. I got a net and caught a very pretty butterfly and I said let the butterfly party begin. One little butterfly danced. Suddenly I was in my bed and there waiting for me was my lunch and it was still hot.
