Well done everybody! You did a great job. Unfortunately when we copied our Word Document to the blog we lost our special bullet points which we spent so much time personalising in class today. You still have your word copies to show. I am delighted to announce you are all Star Writers this week for your teamwork and blog designing! Mrs M-H
