This writing is about our topic 'Mini Beasts'. They were given 10 mins to write about mini beasts. In that time the teacher would give out small snippets of inquiry questions helping them to write more. This was very successful for most of the children in the class.

Our first week at school. On our first day back to school, we were all nervous firstly because our teacher was new to our school, and secondly we were all going to be in a new block. Our first day was a good day. Through the week we started talking about our 'branding name'. Our teacher used statistics, by making a tally graph and then a bar graph we had managed to find our name. Unfortunately our first name was not chosen because it was a name used in 2016. So we put our heads together again and our teacher said that we could be like elephants as they have great memories. Therefore our name emerged to 'Amazing Arewhana' (Elephants) based on holding on to great memories in the making. Hope you enjoy our 2017 journey. Signing out. Amazing Arewhana.

To help us build our vocabulary in writing, we are researching a hero or heroine of mythical time and legends. Here are some photos of us researching and in deep thought. Also this week we have a homework assignment to complete. Fakalofa Kia ora and Talofa Amazing Arewhana have been given an assignment focused around their Writing.
