The Mystery of the Kuranui School Pen Thief!!!

Our absentminded teacher, Ms Daniels, is always forgetting what she has done with her pens and highlighters. We discovered that we have a "Pen Thief" at Kuranui School; the thief snuck silently in to our classroom and snatched Ms Daniels's pens right in the middle of our Word Work lesson. Luckily our cameras caught a few images of her stealthily sauntering around our school.

We talked about how we could catch the Pen Thief and thought that filling in a SuspiciousPersons Report might help.
Our writing Walt (we are learning to...) was:

- Use adjectives to describe how someone looks. 

How do you think we did? Please feel free to leave constructive comments.
