I am Learning to Use Punctuation Properly.

Last week we celebrated Matariki with a pyjama and breakfast morning at school!
It was lots of fun and gave us good ideas to write about. Our focus in writing has been on using different types of punctuation correctly.

I need to:
- Use at least two different types of punctuation.
- Use the punctuation in a way that makes my writing more interesting.
- Put the punctuation in the right places.


We talked about Matariki breakfast and I just drank 1 milk. We had fun.

My Reflection
I am proud of how I used two full stops in the right places.
It can be tricky to know when to use different punctuation.
Next time I could try to use some different types of punctuation.

I am Learning to Recognise Contractions.

I am in Meeko group for Reading, we are working at Blue level. We have been learning to recognise and read contractions.

I need to:
- read contractions correctly
- understand that they are a shortened version of two words
- match a contraction with the words they are short for


My Reflection
I am proud of my ideas and thinking.
I found it easy peasy to match the words with the contractions.
I find it easy to read the contractions.
Some of them can be tricky to read and to know what they mean.
