Australia We’re Standing In It

Dear Year 4, It has been wonderful to read the positive comments you have been making about Ryan’s narrative and we are really enjoying reading the narratives that you are posting for us to share. This week we would like to share with you a narrative written by Elijah which we are sure you will all enjoy. It is called “The Unknown Package”. In this story Elijah travels into the future, tickles aliens and saves the world. We look forward to answering your questions about Australia.

Hi Year 3,

Year 4 are finishing their chapter stories with a dilemma. The children read a poem about doing a bad thing by Alan Ahlberg. They then created a story based on that poem. We have posted it on this blog for you to read and enjoy. The children have worked very hard to create these stories in pairs.

Once I did the most terrible thing – By Ethan and Ashley (This is about breaking a window)

Once I did a bad thing – By Michelle and George (This is about stealing money for a mouse)

Once I did a bad thing – By Joe and Laksiya (This is about stealing money for a Nintendo DS)

Once I did a bad thing – by Ellenjoy and Shane (This is about stealing fairyfloss)

Hello Year 4, Thank you for your comments about Ryan’s narrative. We are looking forward to reading some of your stories soon. Year 3 have also been learning about significant sites in Australia and they would like to share some of their work with you. The link below is to a powerpoint created by Caitlyn. We hope you can learn a little bit more about Australia when you view it.
