Reading term 4



WALT ask good questions to clarify our understanding and find out

Something I did well was:
Asking questions to understand better.
Next steps:
I need to ask even more better question to get more information from the text.

Term 4 writing

Today you are being asked to look back over your writing this term and choose your favourite example.  You will need to say why it is your favourite in one of the boxes below.  You will also need to show that you have responded to a comment from the teacher by changing (improving) something in your writing.


Copy and paste or type your chosen example in this box below.

One night it was dark silent and nobody was around. A girl named Hayley lived in a old black house. By the grave yard. That night Hayley went to bed in her old black house. then she heard a bump, then a smash ,then on her widow there was a crash. She got such a fright the glass spread all over her face. Then she looked up and coming out of the window there was a hand. An old recaley hand and brown fingernails. Then Hayley closed her eyes and looked up then she opened them then she sees a old brown dirty thing. Then a car went passed and showed the lights on the thing.then she realised it was a ZOMBIE the zombie grabbed hayley by the arm and dragged her out of her bed, out the window,and dropper her outside on the grass.Hayley looked around and there were about a million other zombies.Hayley thought they were going to eat here but no they didn't.She wondered what they were doing? Then she realised that they were all taking her into the graveyard. They went into the middle of the graveyard and there was a dep dep hole that they were putting her in. The hole they dropped her in and Hayley screamed. Then they started to bury her then they finished and Hayley remembered she put a torch in her pocket. So she took It out and used it to look around the small hole. Then she saw a small hole so she thought she would go through it and she did and it lead up to the services and she went back home.then when she was out of the hole she felt more scared so she went and got the phone and rang her cousins to live with them.They said yes,so she went to live with them. She lived in a lovely house with her cousins,it was just like her dreams of living in a nice house.

                                        


I chose this example because:


because i thought that it had lots of information and it's a good story and I also think that it is existing and its has cool parts of the sentence and it grabs the reader's attention.




Comment from the teacher:


I did enjoy the way you started off this story - especially the description of the hand and how you used repetition to really make it sound scary. I think your ending could do with some work.  It finishes a bit quickly.  When she was buried, was she scared?  How long was she buried for? Longer more descriptive sentences here would help to give a sense of time passing.  Would she really just go back home or would she go somewhere for help?


How I used the information in this comment to improve my writing:


I think i should have add in more description and make the ending a bit better with more information like writ what happiness when she got back home and make it so it sounded like she was scared.




What I need to work on now to improve my writing:


I need to check for full stops and capital letters. put comers in where I need them.
