Research a 'Myth or Legend" and comment a short paragraph about it on this post.

I have chosen the myth of Vampires.

Nearly every single country used to believe in vampires! If something went wrong they would always get the blame. This belief began so long ago, that the Ancient Egyptians even believed in them!

We are all great at exploring, so why not share these explorations with everyone?
This website is designed so students are able to share resources, information and opinions through the interaction with their peers. As technology is becoming a seemingly important aspect in our day-to-day lives, these skills of sharing and interacting with others through the wonderful source of the Internet is becoming almost vital!
Throughout the duration of this unit, and most likely many more to come, students will have a select amount of time to engage in these fantastic learning resources to enhance skills such as those mentioned.

Learning Objectives
- Use a range of software including word processing programs to construct, edit and publish written text, and select, edit and place visual, print and audio elements (ACELY1697)

- Identify features of online texts that enhance readability including text, navigation, links, graphics and layout(ACELA1793)

- Plan, draft and publish imaginative, informative and persuasive texts containing key information and supporting details for a widening range of audiences, demonstrating increasing control over text structures and language features(ACELY1694)

# data[].attributes.body
This year we are looking at the topic of Myths and Legends through different kinds of writing.
We call these types of writing informative texts, imaginative text and persuasive texts.
Each lesson there will be a new post that you will have to engage in! This might be to add on your 'smart grid' or to comment your thoughts on Miss Theobald's!

LETS HAVE FUN!
