Modality


Modality Challenge

By Mikayla and Michael.N

It all started with Miss Lee going to a meeting where Tom Barrett  (a man from England), gave Miss Lee a challenge for our class to do. The challenge was that we had to write at least 50 sentences using at least one word of modality in each sentence that we write. We ended up  doing  over 200 sentences!!!

Everyone earned 13 merits. We also had a mini challenge for the sentence number:
  • Jason wrote the 50th sentence
  • Michael and Charbel got the 100th sentence
  • Christian B and Jack got the 150th sentence 
  • Gaby got the 200th sentence
They each earnt a raffle ticket. Everyone did a great job with their sentences. Gabby N wrote a fantastic 29 sentences!

We came up with some great sentences. Here are some good ones-

It is possible that it is going to be sunny tomorrow (Angelica)
It is completely unacceptable for schools to have animals in the classroom. (Tracey)
It is obvious that there are eight planets (Michael V)
It is vital that all children learn to swim (Gabby N)
I seriously recommend that smoking should be illegal (Ashleigh)
It is definite that I will eat chicken tonight (Luke)
It is completely unacceptable for children to smoke. (Georgia)

Mahrae and Emma created a wordle of our sentences:



We also have a google presentation of the sentences:
