Letter about lockdown

How is your life different from this time last month? It has been a big difference, no going to school with all my friends, no play dates and we have only seen grandma and grandad via zoom. I have found the hardest thing is staying with my sister ALL the time! She is very annoying. Spending more time with my dad has been my best thing in lockdown, he is normally at work for a lot of the day. Google chromebooks have been the best technology device for me in lockdown because you still get to do your school work and you can keep talking to your friends in google meet. My best book is SLIME by David Walliams and I read over half of it in one night! It was about a person called Ned, he was in a wheelchair and he loved speeding around the island. I don't watch a lot of TV but Mum taped The Cube which is a game show where all the contestants do tricky tasks to win money. We did a bit of art work for school and I have been cutting down manuka with a tomahawk for fun. Not that unique but lots of board games like Boggle, Chess and we couldn’t find the scrabble board but we have a giant jigsaw puzzle yet to come out. My family cut down a massive tree that was going to fall on our carport, we all worked together, we all did a job each and i learnt that we are a great team. I also think my family would be great at the game show The Cube as we all are good at different things.

    Kia ora Sam, I am Mrs Sugrue from Karoro School. I enjoyed reading your letter and hearing what you have been doing during lockdown. It sounds like you and your family are keeping busy and spending lots of time together, which is so special. You have started to use some great punctuation which helps the reader to understand your thoughts and has allowed your letter to flow nicely. I would have loved for your letter to have included a few more describing words to help me connect more to each idea.
    Awesome Work Sam!

    Hello Sam. I loved reading this letter about your lockdown experiences. I can see that there are many things about lockdown that you enjoy. I'm glad Mr Google (ably supported by Ms Barrow) is able to keep your learning tracking along.

    Hi Sam, I like your piece of work. I know I can be very annoying but that is what sisters do. I hope we can get on with building that hut it is a lot of fun. Just remember to always make your 'I's' a capital letter when it is on their own.
