Short story

For this piece of writing I have focusing on my vocabulary and punctuation. I have been learning to:  

• use a range of precise vocabulary to communicate meaning (Year ⅞)
• use all basic punctuation independently and attempt more complex punctuation (eg semicolons, colons, parentheses)

The pieces of my writing that are highlighted green are where I have shown my punctuation goal
