What Makes A Quality Recount

My buddy Maddy and I discussed 10 important ways to make our writing better and more interesting.

Here are the 10 things we brainstormed together...

  • In your introduction it is important to answer the five w's who, what, where, when and why.
  • Include your senses; See, Smell, Hear, Feel and Touch.
  • Separate your brainstorming into different sections based on the topic of each paragraph.
  • Make sure your recount is in the right order. 
  • Maybe add a 1. 2. 3. planning so you remember what order your recount goes in.
  • Add rich language.
  • Make sure to incorporate feeling and emotion into your closing statement.
  • Try use time connectives.
  • Make sure to use correct punctuation.
  • Use nouns.
My goal for this term is to use more scientific words, use rich language and not make my writing so long and to make it shorter with strong words.

Rangi And Papa E Book

I found it hard to figure out how to do papa's face on the title page. 

I found it easy to select the colour of items and skin colours on the title page.  

Next time I will work quicker to get it finished.

Is The Environment Our Responsibility

I found it easy to transfer my writing to the slides and come up with ways to draw the reader in. Something that helped me with drawing the reader in was finding images to make secret messages.

I found it hard to find the information to actually write my persuasive writing and to publish the information into my own words. 

Next time I will try and put the information into my on words and finish my work faster.

Scratch Ebook

Despite not knowing that much about scratch I surprised myself with the screencastify creation I made. Altho I sis struggle with recording my screencastify video I think I did a alright job. Next ime I think I should ask for help when I need it and I should give the other people in my cooperative grop have the oppertunity to be the leader in the group.I really enjoyed creating my slide in the Ebook slide show because I got to customise it however I liked. on the other hand I did struggle with making everything fit on to the page because the page was portrait. but i do think this was good practise and I hope I do better next time.
