Seeds Book - Eli

Check out this amazing book from Eli.
I can't wait to see the writing ideas he gathers in this book.

Graeson's Greek Writing

Graeson was excited to share his knowledge about the Ancient Greeks.  I love the way he used his writing about the lightning from yesterday in this writing.  Liz gave Graeson a principal's award for this excellent descriptive writing.

Sophie's Seed Book

Hi Allana,

here is my seed book I have 5 seeds in it.  

Sophie

Wow - what a brilliant writing seed book!

Isabella has made her writing seed book and sent me a picture of the front cover. It is amazing and has the people who are most inspiring to her on the front.  

Write her a comment and be inspired by her creativity.  


I wonder how your writing seed book is going?  This is a book that you will want to take to your class next year and might even be something you use all your life!  It is important to make it special to you.

Writing Seed Book

I have been working on the cover of my Writing Seed Book and here it is.  I use some scrap-booking techniques but you should put all the things on the front that inspire or interest you.  Make this book special to you.

On the inside pages make sure you give each of your treasure or seed ideas a page of their own...... this is the reason why.

Each seed idea is going to have a type of brainstorm, thinking about all the different types of writing we could do with it.  Take a look at the silly picture that looks like me as a kid.  I have ideas about writing these sorts of things:

Description of me as a kid.

Diary in the life of a 1970's child.

Description of my home and farm.

Timeline of the major events in my life.

List of my dreams.

Newspaper announcement of my birth.

Story of a kid with magical powers.

Memoirs of small events in my life e.g. falling off the motorbike, saving a sick cow, catching a magpie for a pet!

We will make a huge list of types of writing at school and use this to help us with our ideas. During the holidays just gather some writing seeds and paste them on separate pages.  

I can't wait for the e-mails of your front covers!

Writing Seeds - Isabella's poem

Isabella has already been working on some writing for her Writing Seeds Book and here it is.  Wow, she really is motivated and it is still only Monday!  I can't wait to see the seed ideas she has in her book!

TEN LITTLE RACE CARS  By Isabella M (July 2nd)

Ten little race cars racing round the race track, 

one lost its wheel then there were nine.

Nine little race cars going for a break, 

one got lost then there were eight.

Eight little race cars racing to the track, 

one stood in a bucket then there were seven.

Seven little race cars one winning the race, 

he was so happy he raced away then there were six.

Six little race cars getting some fuel, 

one got sprayed then there were five.

Five little race cars still racing, 

the crowd of cars set an alarm clock off, 

one got frightened then there were four.

Four little race cars one calling his mum, 

called 111 instead and the police took him away 

then there were three.

Three little race cars eating some chips, 

one burnt his mouth and went to hospital 

then there were two.

Two little race cars watching TV, 

one wanted to watch Wiggle your Wheels 

so he ran away then there was one.

One little race car felt very tired, 

fell asleep for two years 

and when he woke he was big.
