Writing

Here are some photos of Room 15 completing independent Writing activities. These are the activities we do when we are not working with the teacher. Even though we are working independently we still need to practise all those things we know about being a writer like  -

.  Making a picture plan
.  Planning each idea 'out loud' so we write them as sentences
.  Spacing words
.  Sounding out unknown words
.  Checking our spelling by finding some words on a Word Card
.  Re-reading our stories to check they make sense
.  Using interesting words and sentences
.  Using our senses to add details
.  Choosing a title

One of our independent activities is Free Writing. When we do Free Writing we choose our own topic to write about.

Sometimes one of our independent activities is to write on the Computers or iPads. Here we are writing about ourselves using Maths data. We used counting so we could compare data we got from the class.

 

 

And . . . sometimes we write independently in our Writing Books.
