Week 2 -  Writing Goal update


Copy and paste the following into your blog. When you have pasted it in, you need to add your 2 examples and also your 1 - 10 rating.
**************************************************
WHAT?
This week I am reflecting on one of my writing goals


IALT: Improve my writing by learning how to:


* use a variety of sentence starters


This week I have been focusing on how to write a drop-in clause


SO WHAT?
Here is an example of a drop-in clause


Mr Forman is our teacher.
He loves his red car.
Mr Forman, who is our teacher, loves his red car.


Mr Forman is the subject of the sentence.
We change ‘He’ to ‘who’
We place commas around the clause we ‘drop-in’


MY EXAMPLES:
Here are two examples of a drop-in clause that I have created.
[1]Daniel B, who likes soccer, is turning 11.
[2]The girl on the beach, who had bulging biceps and a hairy chest, decided to go for a swim.


NOW WHAT?
I rate my understanding level at 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
My confidence level with using these types of sentences independently in my writing is
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
