Making a plan

We need to have only one or a few words in our plan. The plan has to be about the topic. It needs 3 or more ideas. When we use the plan to do our writing, we need to write 2 or more sentences about each idea. The plan helps us to remember what happened. We need to start and end our writing with a sentence about the topic.

I feel happy about my writing because I have got better at writing more sentences.

I am learning to sound out words when I am writing. It is easy to think of the sounds in words.

Learning about fractions-- half and quarter

I was learning about half and quarter. It was easy to show half of the group of flowers and the shape. Now I know that quarter means 4 equal pieces.

Rhyming words

We are learning about rhyming words. The middle and last sound in rhyming words has to be the same. It is easy to sound out words when they are rhyming. Rhyming words almost sound the same. Only the first sound is different. I sometimes find it tricky to read and write rhyming words.
