Quickwrites

During writing we spend time completing quickwrites. To do a quickwrite, we write as quickly as we can for three to four minutes about an idea that our teacher or classmates have chosen. Here are some below.

My favourite celebration is Christmas. When we have Christmas our family gathers around at our place. This year we shall have Christmas at our house because we are getting a pool put in. For Christmas dinner we vote what to have. This year I am going to vote for Macaroni Cheese. We always have pavlova for pudding and I hate pavlova.

If I was a giant I would look purple and I would be a girl. I would be friendly and if there is any danger I would solve the problem. I would be really friendly to my best friends Michelle, Ginna and Katherine.
