Character Study

 WALT: evaluate the actions of a character in a narrative story.

I read a narrative story called The Force. It had quite a few characters, but the main character was Harper. We then did a character study on the main character. We used Google Drawings to answer some questions.

 

Reflection: I could read the story and understand the characters actions in the story. Some vocabulary words were tricky, so I had to use a dictionary to find the meaning.

Vocabulary

 WALT -  build vocabulary knowledge by reading a range of poems

We had to hunt for nouns, verbs, adjectives and emotive language in different poems. 

 

 Reflection: I could read different poems and found it easy to identify nouns. It was tricky finding verbs. 

The Treaty of Waitangi

WALT: Read to find information and locate significant towns and cities within New Zealand on a map.

We read all about the Treaty of Waitangi and then answered questions about it. We also had to label towns on a map.

Reflection: It was easy to find answers in the text. I could find clues in the text to help me with the answers. Next time I'd like to complete all the questions.
