To date, one of the writing series of lessons that links to our Inquiry was learning that a simple sentence always has a noun and a verb; we'll call this the 'who' and the 'do' and learning where to put the punctuation.

We are (also) learning that by adding adjectives and adverbs we can turn a boring sentence into a 'wow' sentence. Below is an example: The seal was frolicking about. The silly seal was frolicking about. Sneakily, the silly seal frolicked noisily about. By Kayla
