Writing Unit

Writing Enquiry Unit

Our Central Idea for our first unit of writing is:

      Using a variety of types of sentence and punctuation features can 
      make our writing more appealing to the reader.


Our lines of Inquiry we will be exploring are:

° FORM: What simple, compound and complex sentences are like

° CAUSATION: Why we need to use commas

° FUNCTION: How to use semi-colons


Our genre focus this term will be story writing. 

We have already examined and begun practising a more sophisticated way of writing stories that can grab and maintain a reader's interest. 

We will be applying what we have learnt about different types of sentences and the use of commas and semi-colons to our story writing.
