Explanation writing Intros....

We have been learning about EXPLANATION WRITING....Our task was to write an interesting title, introducing what our topic was and a few facts about our topic. My two topics were Hammers and peelers.Here is both of my introductions.... ENJOY!

                              Hammer!

Today I am talking about Hammers!

A hammer is a solid tool that is used to hit nails,

screws and all sorts of things in, and they are very useful

because they can help keep your drywall and walls up.

They can also help with keeping your structure strong.

Hammers are a big help when it comes to dealing with wood

and timber.How else is a hammer helpful?

                           Potato peelers!

A Potato peeler...Doesn't sound like much aye?

But when it comes to that cooking life, Potato peelers

are very useful to be peeling all sorts of things,

such as potatoes , carrots, Kumara, Apples, pears,

Oranges, cucumbers, Zucchini and a variety of many

more things.The sad thing about some potato peelers is

that some are very fragile. Can you think of a few

more reasons a potato peelers are helpful?

Toku Mauri,No tu a whakarere,

Toku Wairua,No nga tupuna tuturu,
He tu whakairo nei,He paepae mo te rangi,
Tenei ahau (x2)

Mo ana ki te ha,ki toku tu,
Kia kohikohi kai mo toku oranga,
Kia kohikohi kai mo toku wairua,

Tenei ahau he uri o nga tupuna,
Arataki e ahau kia puawai,
Tenei aha te Kura o Tautoro,
Arataki e ahau kia whakatau

Daily goal

We have started to do our daily goals.Today I done My daily goal based around Maths.We have started doing our daily goals so we can achieve a goal everydya.Here is my daily goal.

About my first week back at school.

Today was a bit Challenging in Te reo because we have a set task to do. We have to write a script in Te reo Maori.1 to start off with, our whole entire script has to be in Te reo and 2 We have to figure out whos doing what and how everything is going to work. The good thing about that is I love to make and edit videos so that wont be a problem.Today Miss Simeon like usual came in to teach us maths.Miss Simeon also tought us a new factions strategy. Our Walt was W.A.L.T: add fractions with like the denominator.Our success criteria was to, Firstly find the equivalent fraction,2 the denominator had to be the same as the other one in your equation,3 simplify your fraction into an improper fraction.At first I didn't really get it until Miss Simeon gave an example.Today we have Cross country training I am excited to run the track but hopefully there isn't any massive puddles.

Goal setting

Today we had to write ourselves a writing goal for the week.We also had to say our writing goal in front of the class.Here is my writing goal.
