The Greatest Library 2

Today for Writing we are learning about Character Description. You may see 2 photos on the screen, one of those photos I did for my 5,7 and 10 writing. In 5,7 and 10 writing you must have a person to time the 5,7 and minutes for he or she group. For your writing you have to write as much as you can in 5 minutes and when it is over you will move onto your 7 minutes writing, once the timer is done you have to a find a partner and read your work to them. The last 10 minutes you have to check your work if it make sense. The last photo you may see is my tense work, so everyone in my group had to fill in the words that are blanked. We had past tense,present tense and future tense. Tai showed everyone his work for  us to mark our work.
