Task 2:
Think back to the 'Staying Out' suspense story and remember how Kev tried to convince his mother to let him go camping with his friend. Please write a brief paragraph including a conversation between Kev and his mother, using all you have learned about punctuating speech. You may even try to put some persuasive language in there!

I woke up and went to my mum. She was down in the kitchen cooking. I asked her,’’ What’s for breakfast?’’ ’’Egg and bacon, my dear,’’ replied mum. She seemed to be in a good mood so I asked the question. Can I have a camp in the garden,’’ I asked slowly. Mum replied,’’ No you can’t.’’ ‘’ Please, mum.’’ I begged. ’’ Only on the weekend!’’ mum shouted. I pleaded with mum to let us camp in the garden. Eventually mum gave up and agreed to it.

Task 2
Kev sighed. I wish someone could come over to go camping with me even though it is only at the bottom of my garden. As he leapt onto his bed. He could hear the TV. It was BBC news. That was the family’s second favourite program after Neighbours. He glared out of his window it was almost night. A few minutes later, he was snuggled in his bed fast asleep. He felt warm, comfortable and relaxed. It was going to be a restful sleep. The next morning, his mum treated him to boiled egg and beans on toast. He took it up to his room. It was Sunday his favourite day. He normally would go to swimming but because his dad had to go to work they couldn’t go. So he tried hard to persuade his mum to let him go camping with his friend but she said they could just play. A few hours later Kev’s friend arrived and they were playing cheerfully.

It is going to be quite fun camping in the garden.I could learn how to be brave because I would stay with my friend in the dark night.I wish to see the sun set in the sky with stars shining like light bulbs.Also I dream to see the moon light in the dark and it will be pleasant to hear the owls hooting."
Kev's mum eyed us both. 'Okay , but no fooling around," she muttered.
We have looked at and discussed these in class today. I am very impressed with the inverted commas being used correctly. Now we need to focus on using the punctuation such as , . ? ! correctly inside the inverted commas. Well done!
