Writing inquiry Erika Costell

Writing inquiry

Erika Costell

Annabel Hustler

My goal with this inquiry was to add heaps of detail because berly no
one knew who she was so i needed to make them know.

A thing that I could have done better is extend my paragraphs.

It was trickey putting the information in nice clean paragraphs.

I enjoyed writing about Erika Costell because she's unique and and funny                 

Do you k who Erika Costell is ?

Reading Inquiry

The Everglades

Annabel Hustler

My goal for this was to make
every page I read a paragraph.

I enjoyed this because it was very
interesting to read about.

A thing I could have done better is
make more paragraphs.

CLAWS

Adrenalin

Annabel Hustler

For this piece of writing we watched  a video and wrote about it.

My goal in this piece of writing was to keep the same tense and to use a variety of words.

It didn't take me to long to write it because I had so much to say.

Next time I will try to extend my sentences.

Also keep the same tense.

The video was about a hawk stalking a squirrel

I found trickey adding detail for my reader to put a picture in their head but i managed to do so.

Inquiry

Maurice Sendak

Annabel Hustler

It was great learning about new people like Sendak.

If you have no clue who this man is he wrote and illustrated Where The Wild Things Are.

The first thing we had to do was research, we did loads of straight research.

Second thing is get it all of the information down on docs or paper.

Third thing put it on a poster.

Fourth thing was choose some pictures to make the presentation look great and then done.

We did it so we could find key information about some of our artists.

I really enjoyed doing this because  didn't know very much about Maurice Sendak but after I researched I knew that he wrote and illustrated 47 children books.  

He was born in 10th June 1928 and died May 8th 2012.

I found putting the Information down in the right tense  tricky.

I eventually worked out how to place them in the end.

I  put them in the  perfect tenses and it and I'm so happy with my finished creation.

If  I ever had to do this again I'll put more information down and make it more interesting for my readers.

Here's a question for you did you know who  Maurice Sendak was and what books he has illustrated? And did you know he wrote and illustrated Where The Wild Things Are?.
