The boys are to re-write their story in the form of a narrative text consisting of four paragraphs. This is the final stage in writing which is known as publishing. You may want to encourage your child to read his story aloud to you and other family members! Enjoy!

On the first day of school in Term 4, kindly remind your child to submit the English file and the pink Write Right booklet.Kindly also ensure that all learning booklets and the AMODES - Comprehension test paper have been checked and signed.
