In writing we have been learning to think about the writers point of view. We are reading the book "The Faraway Tree" by Enid Blyton in class. The book is about a little girl called Connie whose mother is ill so she is sent to live with her Mothers friend and her children Jo, Bessie and Franny. The children show her the Faraway tree and to begin with she doesn't believe them.
We have been talking about how Connie might have felt and what she would have said to her Mother.We decided to write a post card from Connie to her Mother,trying to think about what Connie would say.
I found it hard to concentrate with lots of people talking.
I found it easy to do the post card on the computer.
Next time I need to work on ignoring people who are being loud.

Evan I enjoyed reading your post about the story "The Faraway Tree". I think it's nice that your postcard expressed to your mother back at home that you had found something to enjoy during your stay. Perhaps next time you could think about how else the character Connie might be feeling about the fact that her mother is so ill she had to be sent away. How would you feel? I like that you are able to understand that it's difficult to concentrate when there is a lot of noise in the classroom. Perhaps you could try using the ear plugs in your schoolbag next time this happens. Love Mummy.
