Ryan's writing group has been learning about using different sentence beginnings.

Ryan's Sentence Openers.
Use a connective:
After a while, the bus came zooming in to a stop.
Use an “ing” clause:
Zooming down the stairs came Ryan.
Use an “ed” clause:
Surprised as he saw the giant stare in the fence.
 Use a simile:
Fast as a rocket he sprinted down the road.
Use an adverb:
Cautiously he opened the prank tin.
Use one word:
Annoyed, he walked home after losing the bball game.
Use “but” for emphasis:
But the monster was still waiting anxiously for the little boy.   

We love maths in Room 1!

Working hard at maths! We are learning about algorithms. Jonny and Ryan are working hard at multiplying decimals.

Xavier's term 1 review

Room1s first term. We all leart lots of bedmas in math. In writing we mostly did our character discription we all made up a fake character and then we made 4 paragraphs about our character saying what they are about and who there friends are.We used metaphors similes hyperbole. My character kiwi camoeflagehe he acts like a kiwi. That is all i want to say thank you.
