**

3/4M reached a stage where they were beginning to write a story that not only entertains but educates. The emphasis was applying the elements of effective writing; these elements included ideas, vocabulary, and sentence structure. Students in 3/4M needed help organising their ideas, where and how could they include their information into the story structure and whether the story would be written in the first and third person. ** **Some students used their facts to write an information report. Other students could not weave the facts into their story.**

** Voicethread was used with 3/4M to help organise their ideas. Recording their ideas encouraged each student to reflect upon their work. Three simple sentences helped students to refocus on the task.

IWB - Voicethread projected onto an IWB and further discussion took place. Voicethread enabled students to consider points which they might not have thought about previously. Students watched the steps involved in creating a Voicethread. Students also saw how quickly a Voicethread can disaapear, especially when things go wrong :( **
