Hello bloggers
This week we had a writer's workshop on Dialogue in Literacy.  We had to write a dialogue between two people planning a trip, and then go back and add action that showed them packing.  I tried to make each character stand out with their own personality based on what they said and did.  Let me know what you think and if there is anything you would do differently.
My one is about two boys going on a trip to Antarctica
“Well need goggles” said Jake as he was putting two pairs of gucci snow goggles in his bag.
“You can pack them” replied Josh as he was packing the jackets.  
“Can you go get the boots and skis?”
“Ok”
“Also get the gloves and hand warmers while your there”
“Ok”
“I think we will need another bag cuz this one is getting kinda full”
“Ok I'll grab that as well”

“Think that is it, we are all packed and ready to go”said Jake

Hello fellow bloggers.  Its time for the DLO for this week's vocab in Gilstrom literacy. We have to make a DLO (digital learning object) from one of out six vocab words and put it in a sentence and then post it on our blogs.
I made a video about the word Peered.


In the video it shows me peering around corners and watching my friend Isla doing some work.
My sentence for peered is "He peered around the corner and watched her do her work."
