Selamat siang, 

This week the 3/4s have been working on Persuasive texts. We created an advertisement for our favourite food. We practised using persuasive techniques such as high modality verbs, persuasive adjectives, hyberbole and alliteration. It was lots of fun using our character strengths of creativity and teamwork to make these ads.

 

We also enjoyed Buddy Bonding because we get to work as a team and make new friends in different classes. We play games such as Chess, Twister, and Bananagrams to learn about how to collaborate and listen to each other respectfully, even if we don't agree.
