Summer Learning Journey

By Anonymous -
 the Summer Learning Journey started on Monday! This is week one and it is about to finish. 
Week one is about how Maui created New Zealand with his magical hook. We had to find three fun facts about New Zealand on the Tourism NZ website

 1. The largest city in New Zealand is Auckland although its capital city is Wellington.

 2. When in New Zealand, you must drive on the left side of the road.

 3. 30% of the country is forest.

Reflection: I think it was easy and fun because all we had to do was just look for 3 fun facts! And we also learn a lot.

    Mālō e lelei Jaeda,

    Cia here from the Summer Learning Journey Ako Hiko team.

    I can see that you have read up on some facts about New Zealand. Remember that when using the information on the linked website (as well as other online or offline sources), you must make sure you paraphrase any information (put it in to your own words). If you don't know what this means you can watch this video explaining a bit about it:

    Please rethink and edit your post to include three chosen facts that have been paraphrased by you.

    For future posts, please make sure that all your posts are written in your own words in order to make sure you receive full points for activities.

    Keep working hard Jaeda, I look forward to reading your edited post :)

    Toe feiloa’i fo’i (see you again),

    Cia.

Describing the setting

By Anonymous -
 This week we are working on using descriptive language by sharing our writing straight onto our blog. The challenge we have is to describe a place using only six sentences. After reading the description you need to guess the place that has been described. It would really help if you say what clues could help you come to this conclusion. Tall standing building tallest tower Sometimes glows at night shining different colours every second! near buildings that are very busy and also at the city been there for a long long time and has never fallen up in the clouds all pointy and still you can go inside it and have the most amazing view!

Des Hunt Visit's Waikowhai

By Anonymous -
Hello fellow bloggers! Today Waikowhai Primary had a special visitor that came in the morning, It was a very popular Author called Des Hunt! He writes all sorts of books for children that are aged up to 9-12 years old. He came here because he wanted to tell us all about his backstory and why he became a Author/illustrator.           Also at the end of the show we got to buy some of his books at morning-tea! He even talked about chemistry and what sort of jobs he did.         Right at the end we got to ask some questions as well before morning-tea. My favourite part was when he made a explosion all the way to the bench,         But I really like the huge explosion he created because it was bigger and it looked      like it could shoot better, then it shot all the way to another student!       I think it was the most important because when there are heaps of flies you can just put heaps of         fliespray in a little container and then you can explode it and the smell would k
