Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteSorry that you have been so lost. :-(
We are here to help you!
A transition is a helpful word or phrase in a sentence, paragraph, or story.
For example, (Hey that's a transition that helps clarify!) next, after that, finally, as a result, are transitions.

Next, we went to the candy shop. After that, we went to the ice cream parlor. Finally, we went to the bakery. As a result, we felt ill.

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that you are badly lost. I am here to help you with transitions. First I will tell you what a transition is. You know how I just said first. A transition is a word, paragraph, sentence, or a phrase that helps you with time, clarifying, and many others.
As an example, some transitions are First, Second, third, for example, next, and multiple more. Here is a link for some transitions. This goes for anyone including you, Old Buck.

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteWe found some excellent transitions in the book Dogzilla. Some of the transitions were meanwhile, afterward, and without warning.
Transitions help keep the story flowing and interesting. They tell the reader that something different is going to happen.

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI found a transition in the book The Witches . It was very slowly. A transition is a word to help change the subject or move along to a different part in the book.
Here's an example, "Meanwhile Lucile was lost and being chased by a wolf!"

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that you're lost, but I can help you. A transition is a "Red Flag Word". I'm reading a biography, so I can't really find some good ones. "Red Flag Words" are words that keep the story flowing. Some transitions are fast, like in the blink of an eye, without warning, and in a nano second. But some are also slow like finally, however, and afterward.
From Deputy Sheriff Alison
P.S. Transitions are words that can also be a little strange , not like Red Flag Words. Also, Red Flag Words are standing out words. Sometimes you might see a red flag or orange flag sticking out of a truck, thats for you to not bonk into the truck because something might be sticking out. Red Flag Words are something that you should notice easily.
Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI am very sorry that you are stuck on that trail, I hope you can find your way out. Anyways I found a transition
in The top secret missing chapter from Charlie and the chocolate factory! It is To begin with. It is a transition for first.

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI can tell you what a transition is. A transition is when you change something or switch, as for reading it means something peculiar is going to happen. In my class we call transitions ''Red Flag Words''. My transition word is Then Suddenly, I found this word in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl

Dear old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI found a transition in the book Night of the Living Egg Nog. It is suddenly. for example, "Suddenly the naughty feline spit a stream of goo at Merle."

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteSorry you're terribly lost. I'm here to tell you about transitions. A transition is a word or phrase that can substitute for "then," "next" and "after that."
For example, in the book Main Street by Ann M. Martin the transitions that I found are you wouldn't believe, but now, and just plain now.
Happy Blogging! :)
Yours truly,
Amanda in Mr. Salsich's class
Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI found many transition words in the book Wayside School is Falling Down but there is one that really stood out. The word was...Suddenly. A transition is a word that is almost like a sentence starter but it's also like a synonym because it's another way of saying "then" or "next."
Sincerely,
Deputy Sheriff Tyler
Dear RR buddies,
ReplyDeleteMy transition words are after, later, while, and suddenly. I found the words in the book Ellie Mcdoodle: Have Pen Will Travel.

Dear Old Buck,
ReplyDeleteI found some transitions that show the time. Here they are: recently, within a year, however, meanwhile, after, and before. Those transitions that I found were in the book Franny K. Stine
Books are great, and you should read them, Old Buck! Transitions will help make the story flow for you.
