This week we've been looking at this short story beginning:
On Monday we looked at B.O.Y.S. sentences - with
but, or, yet, so (thanks to
Alan Peat). We finished off some sentences that Mr Gregg started. Here are some of our good ones:
B
| Niamh | Her mum was chatting away happily, but she wanted to go home. |
| Clara | Her mum was chatting away happily, but Elizabeth wanted to go. |
| Amelia | Her mum was chatting away happily, but Elizabeth was looking at all the jewels. |
| Vega | This was the first time she had been in here, but she knew a lot about it. |
| Abigail | This was the first time she had been in here, but she already knew where things were. |
O
| Irene | This could be an ordinary day, or it could be a mysterious day. |
| Jesse | This could be an ordinary day, or something unexpected could happen |
| Luis | The voice she heard could be her imagination, or maybe her ears had heard the truth. |
| Fernando | The voice she heard could be her imagination, or it could be a friend of hers calling her. |
Y
| Amelia | The shop was full of wonderful jewellery, yet something felt wrong. |
| Rozenn | The shop was full of wonderful jewellery, yet was dirty and rusty. |
| Irene | She ought to be enjoying this, yet she heard whispering. |
| Sanika | She ought to be enjoying this, yet she was scared. |
S
| Aksh | Something was calling her, so she followed the voice |
| Pablo | Something was calling her, so she wondered around the shop to find the real voice of that person. |
| Mimi | She knew something was about to happen, so she tried to stop paying attention to the jewels. |
| Irene | She knew something was about to happen, so she opened the lid. |
On Tuesday, we created some 2Ad sentences. Here are some of our best:
| Mimi | It was a boring, predictable shopping trip. |
| Pablo | It was a tedious , lame shopping trip. |
| Jesse | It was a strange, spooky shop with a colorful, shiny box. |
| Niamh | Inside,it was a weird, creepy shop with a spooky, freaky shopkeeper. |
We're getting ready for a special, big writing session, with some interesting, exciting sentences!

Best wishes,

It is nice that you have tried to make some sentences of your own and yes we do eat other things than stinky cheese because some of us are from different countries.

I am reading Bite-Sized Magic by Kathryn Littlewood. What are you reading? Who is it by? What is it about?

Good day! I am a 3rd grade student in New Jersey. I really liked your B.O.Y.S sentences. I like the words you used so I tried writing a sentence. This could be an ordinary day or a really, really bad day because there is going to be a snowstorm. Now here are some questions: Do you watch the Winter Olympics? I am. Do you guys have a lot of snow? We're getting another snow storm tonight.
ReplyDeleteSincerely, Quad Blog Buddy ED

Bonjour, thankyou for commenting on our B.O.Y.S sentences and yes I watch the Winter Olympics. I love watching it but what a pity the Olympics take place once every 4 year!
DeleteHi.
DeleteI am watching the Winter Olympics.
My favorite is the bob-sled.
What's your favorite sport?
I like your B.O.Y.S. sentence, no we have not had any snow this year.
Yes I do watch the winter Olynpics. here in Toulouse there is no snow,
Deleteand I don't think it will snow this year.
Hi! I am in grade 4B. Your questions are really good. Answer to question number one is that, yes i do watch the Olympics. Actually, i love it! Answer to question number two which is does it snow? Well in Toulouse it doesn't snow, but occasionally it does. Now i will tell you a boy sentences: The voice she heard could be her imagination, or her ears are hearing the truth. Where you ever in Europe?
DeleteGood day! I'm a smart 3rd grader from NJ. I really like the sentences you made! I thought they were amazing! I wanted to write one of my own, so I wrote: The shop was full of wonderful jewelry, yet something felt very unusual. Have you watched the Winter Olympics? I have! I love it!

Good day! I am a 3rd grader from New Jersey. I am in the 3H Crew. I like your amazing B.O.Y.S sentences They are very good. My sentences are: Her mum was chatting away happily, but she wanted to go back to their old home. The shop was full of jewelry, yet it didn't look right. Something was calling her, so she wondered around the room to find the friendly voice. What is the weather like there? Our weather is freezing and snowy. Have you been watching the Winter Olympics? If you have been, I hope you like them and their amazing acts.
ReplyDeleteIL

Bonjour IL!
DeleteWhat a great comment, with great B.O.Y.S sentences!
I like the Olympics because they do back flips when they do snowboarding, and they fly through the air and still manage to land on the floor.
The weather is wet and cold here, but not snowy. It has been really really wet, but today it is sunny.
Snow is awesome. We have snow only up in the Pyrenees, the mountains near to us.

Good day! I'm a student in New Jersey. On Wednesday night we have a Noreastern storm coming. That's a huge storm with a lot of snow. Do you have bad weather coming? Great job on the sentences. Here's a sentence I wrote: Something was calling her, so she went to it.

I tried to make a B.O.Y.S sentence and here it is: It could be an ordinary day, or a surprise could come any minute. I also have questions for you. Is your class doing a special project?

Hi everyone from the 3H Crew! It's great to see you here, and so glad you had a go at the B.O.Y.S. sentences too! It's evening here in Europe of course, so my class aren't seeing this now (unless they're staying up much too late!) - but there'll see it tomorrow and we'll try to reply early next week.
ReplyDeleteGood morning! I'm a student in the 3H Crew and my teacher is Ms. H. It is very cold out and we had snow for a week. What is it like in your town? I wonder if it is 112 degrees F? I really wish it was hot here in NJ. It is very close to Valentine's Day. I love Valentine's Day because it is my brother's birthday. He's turning eleven.
