Soldier-Moment in Time

WALT: Use adjectives (describing words) to make our writing interesting to the reader.
We pretended we were a soldier in the war, using our senses to describe what it was like.
I felt...blood  dripping from my leg
I saw... massive bombs exploding in my dirty face
I heard... big guns firing as loud as a fire
I wondered... if I would get shot and die

Reading-Summarising

I have been learning to summarise the beginning, middle and end of a story in reading.
We read First Flight and as a reading group created a Pic Collage to show what happened in the beginning, middle and end of the story.
