This term, the Grade 3/4 students are trialing a new Writing program called the 7 Steps of Writing. So far the students have been looking at the first step, which is called Planning For Success. This investigation has involved exploring how different narratives follow a particular structure. After examining the structure of different narratives, the students were asked to complete some planning for their own new story using a planning template. This is LC’s example of his story planning.

After planning the storyline, including the problems and ending to their new stories, the students were asked to brainstorm who the main characters would be. We explored different character traits, including the appearance and personalities of famous characters from Disney films and then the students had a go at describing their own characters, as seen here in LC’s example.

Over the past two weeks, our class has been learning a new process that is used to assist the students in creating dynamic and tense narratives. This process is called the Seven Steps To Writing Success. Students are gaining confidence in each writing skill and in time, they will use these steps to construct a narrative of their own. Pictured are pieces created but Isla S. and Charlotte Y.

It's been wonderful to have the class back after a well deserved break! This week, our maths focus was fractions. We found many different things that could be expressed as fractions including some of the ones shown here.
