Sound of the Week


Can you think of words that end in ND??  Try to put your words into sentences!!



WRITING!!

I know we are a class of AUTHORS and some of you just love writing.  Here is an opportunity for you to write some stories on the internet over the holidays.  I will post a few more things since I have my laptop back working.  We are using the picture from Ruapehu's Eruption a few years ago.  I have shown you in class how to use it.   





Remember - Read the hook, put your name and then hit ENTER a few times and start writing your story.  Make sure you:


- Don't forget your full stops

- match your spelling to the sounds you hear in a word
- have fun!
