Summarising Simple Solutions

For reading we have been learning to summarise the text. We have done this by using the who, what, where, when, why and how questions. The book we were reading was called Simple Solution, it was about a truck that was stuck.

I found it easy to do everything
I found nothing tricky
Next time I need to work on not messing anything up

Post Card

In writing we have been learning to think about the writers to point of view. We are reading the book called "The Faraway Tree"by Enid Blyton in class. The book is about a little girl called connie whose mother is ill so she is sent to live with her mothers friend and and her children Jo,Bessie and Franny. The children show her the faraway tree and to begin she doesn't believe them.

We have been talking about how Connie might have felt and what she would have said to her mother. We decided to write a post card from Connie to her Mother, trying to think about what Connie would say.

I found it hard to think what about what to write.

I found it easy to draw up the post card in my book.

Next time I need to work on writing my words correctly.

Story Telling

During our Te Tuhi workshop  "Creative Stories" we learnt  about the different ways a story can be told. We explored our story "The Lorax" through role play and then created our own poster.

I found it hard to do the right thing when we were doing the role play.

I found it easy to make the poster.

Next time I need to work on cutting better and faster.
