Writing

Writing News:

We have been focusing on writing to tell more. The focus has been to reread our writing to tell more and add more detail. We are also focusing on having capitals, punctuation, using the Word Wall and writing complete sentences.

In writing, we will focus on: • Writing having a beginning, middle and end • Ideas being expressed clearly • Using some descriptive words and/or supporting details • Using knowledge of some spelling patterns/rules to spell new words • Using capital letters at the beginning of sentences and proper nouns • Using end marks correctly • Writing for a variety of purposes • Writing numbers, words and sentences with appropriate spacing and baseline use
