Whakapapa Homework

Last week we researched our family tree. We also interviewed our elders to find out a little more about them.

Things I didn't know about My Grandma:

I didn't know that me and my grandma have so much in common, like country music and the movie “Sound of music” and our favorite pets are cats and dogs.

People in those days meet through social dancing and in our days people don't do so much social dancing any more. I would like to have some of that back. I enjoyed this homework assignment because I think we can learn so much from our grandparents.

Athletics Day Poem

Tension is high.
A signal gun shot breaks the silence.
A sudden burst of cheering.
Students bolting  like there lives are depending on it.
The finish line is two steps away.
The last bit of  energy drains out of them as they cross the finish line.
A sigh of satisfaction rumbles round the field as the race finishes
Silence once again...
These arcs the sounds of H.N.I athletics day

Character Analysis

This is Boy

Every morning Miss Kay reads to us from Roald Dahl's book 'Boy'. The purpose of this is to improve our character writing. Boy has a lot of  descriptive  character writing in it. I am really enjoying the story so far...
