Introduction to the 1st writing unit

For our first writing unit we wrote fiction pieces. I wrote a realistic fiction piece called My Aunt's Will- The lost tomb .  In this unit we learned different editing skills such as punctuation, spelling, grammar and present, past and future tense.                                                                                                                                             We also learned about Planting Seeds . Planting seeds are different ways of finding ideas to write about. Some planting seeds were:  Things I like, Things I don't like, things that disgust me, things that scare me, things that make me mad. My favorite thing that we learned is how to change words from "said" and "asked" to more interesting words, like exclaimed, demanded, questioned etc.
   Here is the link to my writing piece:

    I really enjoyed this writing unit because we got to choose what type of writing we got to write about and I also really like this unit because I finished 17 books on the 39 clues and I got inspired to write a book similar to the 39 clues.
   Holly Lewis edited my piece and vice versa. It taught us about being an editor and putting our editing skills to actually edit someone's piece! It was a lot of fun and I hope that I edited Holly's piece correctly for her to publish!
