Literacy in action in Room 5

Yesterday we had a busy day in Literacy. Some people were researching about Pounamu from their journal story by looking at a specific website. others were reading with the teacher on a guided text about a dinosaur, Gigantoraptor. Other groups were reading the blog posts, reading in the library corner and some were playing word games. Some people were reading our speech mark work with pegs showing where to put the punctuation and some were doing grammar work on the ou blend, (like in ground).We also wrote our own narrative stories with a beginning, a middle and an ending. It was a very productive day in Literacy time!
