9T English

English this year was very fun and tough. The beginning of the year we had to do slides talking about ourselves. Then we had to do 2 minute speeches and it was very hard to start the year off but I finished it and got a merit, my speech was about the issues within our school. After we finished speeches, we started to do Rapid Reading Response before every lesson of English I think this has really helped my reading. Then we had to read a novel and answer questions this novel was called see ya Simon this book was about Simon and he had a disease called muscular dystrophy . We then had a short story that we also had to rewrite and answer a few questions to this short story, the story was about the balaclava which is about a boy stealing a beanie. the second to last thing we did this year was film study for these lessons we had  this is where you watch a film and study it we watched stand by me, this film was about boys that ran away to find one of their brothers. This term we have been learning about creative writing, for creative writing we have been learning about verbs, adverbs, adjectives, similes and personification. I have learnt alot during this year of English, Thank you to Whaea Annette for welcoming me in her class and letting us do whatever for most Fridays, I will miss you next year :)
