W.A.L.A writing a story other people want to read
Greedy Cat’s surprise

Early in the morning

in the local shop one round faced soft Mum

wearing her usual blue and red outfit,

was buying groceries.

“This is the last time that cat will eat my food!”

Mum thought.

Lurking in the background,

the solitary,

figure of a fluffy,

barrel like,

looking out for a meal a gingery,

orangey white cat

GREEDY CAT!

“Look at that food” he thought happily.

Little did he know that Mum picked a nasty surprise,

from the large variety of multi-coloured tins and cans.

Back at home,

Greedy Cat

still on the lookout for food

thought he’d sniffed out a tasty treat,

meanwhile Mum was watching from behind the door”tasty revenge”Mum murmured

All of a sudden Greedy Cat realised what his tasty treat was! “mow!”  

yowled Greedy Cat

“This is the last time I will eat Mum’s food” he thought when he ran away

Meanwhile Mum chuckled going back to the kitchen “ that cat will never go into that shopping bug again”.

I am learning about...

I.A.L.A Make and explain my inferences using information in the text




These are things I am already good at doing all the time in my reading

• Reading longer texts and remember what has happened over a number of days
• Talk about what they have read with others in the story
• Reread
• Automatically select and apply a decoding strategy when they find unknown word

My inference was that Mana is feeling really sad about his mate Jackson leaving and moving away to Auckland. The clues I used in the text were: "stink Jacksons leaving"
