Against Statement Persuasive Writing!

 Xin Chao, Bula Vinaka readers, 

In room 9 we are focusing on Persuasive Writing. Persuasive means something like making someone believe something. Room 9 made a list of statements that people have different opinions of then we chose 3 of those statements.

Then we made a google doc with those 3 statements with an reason and some evidence.

Here's my work. Thank you for reading my blog!



Kiwi Kids News Plastic Straws Article!

 Talofa, Kia orana readers,

This week in room 9 in reading we have been going on a website called Kiwi Kids News and finding an article to read. I read an article called plastic straws. We had to make a google doc then from the article answer some recall questions and thinking questions.

After that we had to make a 10 word summary which is words that are important and related to the article.

I would like to share my work!

I hope you enjoyed this blog post and that you have a great day.

Oh and here's a link to visit Kiwi Kids News article/plastic straws link.

Canterbury Swim School ~ Day #1

 Ni Hao, Xin Chao readers and welcome back to another blog post,

This Term for 2 weeks Hornby Primary School are learning how to swim or you could call it swimming lessons. First room 9 and room 2 our buddy class went on a bus then drove to Canterbury Swim School.

After the bus ride both classes walked inside and got ready for swimming. Lastly both classes were split into groups and headed off to one of the pools with their swimming instructor, my instructor was a woman.

I learnt which of my arms is the bubble arm and which is my breathing arm for arm circles. 

My goals for the term are trying not to struggle in deep water and arm circles without a board.

Have a nice day, Bye!

Nature Spots Mental Health!

Xin Chao readers,

As you may know in one of my recent posts I was talking about Mental health and had done an activity aswell. So today I have another one about nature spots and who we would go with to those places. 

We had to get photos of our favourite places outside then write a list of who we would go with to the place.

I hope you like it and have a nice last day of the term!

Marleigh & Krystallynna's Second Playdate!

Talofa lava, readers

This term we have been learning to write narrative stories. The purpose of narrative writing is to catch the readers attention. 

First we had to write our story on a narrative writing planner labeled with different parts of a story like characters, setting, or problem.

Then we made a google doc and put our story together from what was on the planner.

We had to include similes, full stops, settings, descriptive words, 5 senses, and problem or personification.




One of my favourite sentences is I delightfully said "hello!" whilst nervously clenching my shoulders into my chest.

One thing I could improve on is finding another word for delightful.

Have a nice day!





































































Reconnecting for mental health!

 Hola, and Xin Chao, readers

This week you might have heard that it's Mental Health Awareness Week so in room 9 we have been learning about mental health. I have learnt how important relationships are for our well being. I want to keep my relationship with my mum by calling her on my phone. This is my poster about calling my mum on a phone.

Remember to take time to korero.

Thank you for reading my blog, have a nice day!
