Video Transcription



My Reflection
For this activity I had to write down every that happens this in video.
I think I did really well because I am not usually up to writing down everything that happens if that      makes sense!😆
I Feel surprised because I didn't know I would be able to finish this in less than 1 block!
The most challenging thing was when the video kind of started to lag so it was really hard to understand what was happening!

Questions & Non Fiction Texts

 My Reflection
A few weeks ago we read a book called extinction is forever.  First we had to read the book and then we asked a few questions. 
 After that we answered the questions by researching the answers. 
When we finished that we went on to all the features of the book.
I think I am still learning how to ask questions.
The most challenging thing in this activity was the describing the language features.

Stop and Dash

My Reflection

A week ago we made a slide that included the stop and dash sentence. If you don't know what a stop and dash sentence is, it is a piece of writing that you describe what you talking about, so you could say I could smell the plane food coming down the aisle or you could say I could smell the plane food - yummy delicious mouthwatering - coming down the aisle.
I think I did really well using the stop and dash sentence  
I feel proud that I achieved the success criteria.
Now I plan to use the stop and dash sentence in my writing!
