Mr\u00a0Atkinson\u2019s comment:<\/strong><\/p>\n

John –\u00a0<\/strong>This week in writing we explored and discussed different pictures and and were challenged to imagine ourselves in these settings. Afterwards, we created a vocabulary list which we used to help us to create a story based on one of the pictures. Our goal was to use as many of the senses as possible to create a clear setting.<\/p>\n

Sara –\u00a0<\/strong>We have been learning how to use dictionaries to discover the definitions of words we were unfamiliar with from the class novel.<\/p>\n

Kate –\u00a0<\/strong>Some of us created Growth Mindset passports. Inside them we wrote what we found challenging at school, what strategies we use to overcome them and how we feel when we experience successes and failures.<\/p>\n

Isla – <\/strong>Working in partners we created motivational messages which we will use in class when we find something challenging.<\/p>\n
