WALT find and summarise information by retelling main events in a text

                                                  REFLECTION

Summarise   information  means  to retell  a story in my own words.

I  know that  when  I am  searching   for  words  to look  in the  index.

Main events  are beginning middle and end. You use  them  because then 

you know which is beginning middle and end also it helps me remember

the detail.

What's the matter?

WALT build simple sentences to add more description to our writing.

Reflection
I am learning to build my sentences by adding more detail. It makes my story interesting to read. Next time I want to add more wow words to my writing. I feel proud of my work.

WALT solve problems by making equal shares

Reflection : I am learning to sort objects equally into groups. I like to use counters to help me. I feel proud solving division facts. Next time I will put more and more effort into my maths. I love doing division and want to learn more.
