The great blog challenge

Today, Mrs Ledger challenged us to write a blog about our animal visitors, by coming up with a sentence to explain which animal was our favourite.

After having a think, we tried to make our sentences longer by using 'because' and 'and'.  Next, we practised our words in a sentence with a talk partner.  Then, we continued our Computing work by recording our sentences using an app called Dragon Dictation.  We spoke into the iPad, and it recorded our sentences by turning them into writing.  Mrs Ledger then added the text to the blog.  Here's what we had to say...
