What's a Wormfly by Mary

This term our topic is called "Little Critters". For writing the children learned about report writing for insects and there were four main areas that they had to write about. They were: Physical Appearance, Habitat, Diet and Any other interesting facts. Then, the children had to write a report about a bug that was made-up and named by them. This is Mary's report and she has done an amazing job. Well done Mary!

Gloria and Mary

As part of writing, the Rainbows group were given a task to write a paragraph about a volcano in pairs. This is what Gloria and Mary came up with.

We took one sentence and decided to deconstruct it as whole class.

A magma came out of the volcano and make the big ash come out of the volcano and the magma looks like a river.

After deconstructing this sentence with the class. Here is what we came up with.
