stripped invaders.

In our reading group Captain Minions this week, we read the story The Stripped Invaders.We are learning to identify key-words and summarise the story. Here is my summary. What is a stripped invader? A stripped invader is a queen wasp. Over four to three weeks the larvae turns into a pupae. The queen makes hexagonal cells mixture using saliva. Each little larva scratches its mandibles on the side of its shell. the queen has to give birth to lots of babies. the queen wasp has lots of babies.

 Whats a key word? a key word is a bold word.

Where in the story were they used?     When the words are made bigger/stand out.

Chapter 3 - City of Ember

 Here is my summary of City of Ember chapter 3. When underground in the pipeworks, when you think of the directions North, South, East and West you will know what is above you. South direction leads to the greenhouse, east is the direction to school. You have to have permission to see the generator. Everywhere was wrenches and hammers in the black gloopy ground. Doon saw a gigantic black rusted machine that was 2 stories tall.  What size boot are you? Said Lister, a pipeworks worker. Doons dad worked in a shop owning tools and other supplies.  The pipe works map looks like a centipede. The generator was really really really LOUD.
