WALT: turn notes into sentences.

Yesterday you made notes about penguins under subheadings. Today you are going to turn the notes into full sentences so they make sense and read well. You need to approach this by using the following steps:

1) Re-read your notes

2) Add extra words so it makes sense to someone else

3) Use capital letters and full stops

4) Use conjunctions

Use your own notes from yesterday. Example notes are attached if needed.
