Writing Time!!!

Dear third graders,

Hello!!!

I love reading  and writing short stories. What about you?

When you write, you need to think about certain things like the author's purposes and the elements of the stories. If you do so before writing, your stories will rock!!!

Author's Purposes

PERSUADE 

INFORM

ENTERTAIN

Remember:

Elements of the Story

Remember: You need to consider these elements before writing a short story, so it turns out to be interesting to the readers.

 Plot , Character , Conflict, Theme, Setting!
Yes! These are the five things!

Listen up to this catchy rap song!!!

READY, SET, GO!!!

Welcome back, dear buddies!

A new year has started. Some of us are a bit confused and nervous...

 

Some of us are a bit sad because vacation is over.

But there is no reason to feel nervous, confused nor sad.

This whole year will rock!!!

You will learn a bunch of new things in

English. So  sharpen your pencils, grab your backpacks, keep a positive attitude to explore the world!!!

What we need now is to know the basic rules of our classroom.

Turn to a friend. Let's discuss about each of them.

Think.

What do you need to do to listen better? 

 How can you show respect to others, yourself and your school?

Why is it important to raise your hand?

Now that you know the classroom rules, you're ready!!!
