Conversations between aliens

In Writing we have been learning how to show conversations, 
and we are also learning to use words other than 'said'.
We know that each time another character speaks, we start on a new line.
How do you think Ganda, Paige, Spike, Jack and Dylan did in their first drafts?








What do YOU think the aliens are saying to each other?
Do you know some more words to use instead of 'said'?

    Dear B4,

    First off, I think you did an amazing job! Learning to write dialogue is always a very difficult thing.

    I always teach my students a lot of the same things. I think it's important to find a variety of words to use. Instead of said you could use replied, responded, whispered, demanded, yelled, added, told, or insisted.

    Keep up the great work!

    Sincerely,
    Mr. Avery

    Dear Mr Avery

    Thank you for those really great words. We will use them in our writing. We are going to put them on our chart.

    We hope you have a very nice summer holiday.

    best wishes
    from B4

    Dear B4.

    I think that i know the aliens were saying. The first alien say we can play hide and seek.
    The second alien say lets play truth or dare.
    The first and the second alien argued.
    The third alien say lets play hide and seek.

    Alien wishes from Ganda.
