Compound Sentences

Some children in Team 8 have been learning about compound sentences.
Compound sentences join two ideas together with a word like, 'so', or 'but'.

We had a search in books to find some compound sentences.
Here they are.

Cecilia and Dia were so clever to use their learning to write their own sentences!

Contraction Hunt

This week we have been reading a book called 'Keep Trying'.  In the book there are some contractions. eg I am  - I'm

                          Can not - can't

Mrs Grant gave Team 8 a contraction hunt challenge. 

Team 8 had lots of fun searching and hunting on the walls and in books to find contractions!

Pretty clever contraction hunting.
