    I am doing story 3
    Good adjectives, different sentence starters, punctuation for excitement, speech is used, I liked the ending it is called a ‘cliff hanger’ what will happen next? the only thing that was a bit confusing was that I didn’t get that the kittens were telling the story to start with.from Ellen

      Thank you Ruby for such a positive comment. You have clearly read the story carefully in order to pick out all the features that were used. I agree that full stops should be added in order to improve the story- where would you put them?

    I like story 2. It is successful because it is exciting and interesting. It is exciting because there is a volcano and interesting because it is in the North Pole. I would like to hear more about the volcano erupting.
    Lots of punctuation, speech marks and connectives used.

      Well done for finding lots of positives in this story. How could the writer describe the volcano erupting?

      Well done for finding two positive parts to the story. Which sentences don’t make sense and how would you change them?

    Story 3:

    This story has lots of Adjectives, different sentence openers and good punctuation. The story was exciting, interesting and I enjoyed reading it.
    The comma in the last sentence didn’t need to be there.

    Story 2:

    Very good story with lots of speech to make it interesting. Lots of adjectives but some of the punctuation is missing. I liked the story.

      Well done for commenting on more than one of the stories and for keeping it positive. How would you change the stories if you could?

    Dear Mrs.beckwith

    I thought that Martha’s story was good and this is what it included.There were a few adjectives used in the sotry, including; ‘The ghost glimmered like a diamand’, and ‘The lion was scary and fierce’.
    The story included good connectives and sentance openers. There were not many sub clauses and although the punction was good, there was a capital letter missing.
    Martha could improve her stoy by using more adjectives, sub-clauses and watch for missing punction.
    It was a good story which I enjoyed.

      What a thoughtful comment- you have clearly read the story very carefully. Where would you put the full stops and capital letters in your story?

    Story 1
    A very interesting story, which had lots of adjectives.
    After full stops you need capital letters, and there wasn’t enoujh commas.

      Yes, there are lots of adjectives in this story and I agree, there does need to be more full stops and capital letters. What else has this story included?

    Story 1:
    I liked how the ghost was described like a ‘glimmering diamond’, good adjective and i also liked excitment when the ghost scared the dad by the cupboard.
    The punctuation could be bit better in the story

      Great comment Lily. I also really liked the simile which described the ghost. What punctuation would you add in and where?

    Story 1

    I really liked Marthas story I think she put loads of effort into it, it has lots of adjectives, good connectives and different sentence openers. I think it needs full stops, commas and more capital letters. It was exciting and great to read.

    Love Bow xx

    Story 2.

    Need to read through because the location was a bit muddled.
    Quite a lot of adjectives.
    A good amount of excitement.

      Thank you for finding two positive parts to the story Jensen. What made you choose to comment on this one and how would you sort the problem of the muddled location?
