Suffiixes

Hey blog world, this week we started our literacy tumble. We have to do different tasks for different subjetcs e.g(Writing,reading and spelling). I did the spelling task this week. The spelling task was suffixes. We had to watch a video, play a game and make a poster for suffixes. A suffix is the end of a word. You will learn more through the video. When we were learning about it the hard bit was the game. It was so hard figuring out the answer sometimes. But it was fun making the poster though. Heres the video and my poster. Hope you enjoy this post. Please feel free to comment on my blog.

Te Reo Maori

Hey blog world, this week on our first day back into school we did Te Reo Maori. We learnt our Pepehas. We got a sheet with blankspaces on each line. we had to fill in info like where we come from, which town we live in, our family name, our first name, your mothers name, your fathers name and a river you feel you have a connection with. When we finished we had to screencastify us saying it or reading it. I had fun doing it because I love learning Te Reo. Especially because its one of the New Zealand languages. The New Zealand languages are Sign language, english and Maori. What was difficult was saying the Maori words properly. I didn't want to mess up. But my teacher Mr Ross told us to use Maori dictionary to help us say the pronounciation. It was so much fun doing it. Heres my screencastify. Hope you enjoy it. Please feel free to comment.

Procedural Writing

This week for writing I went in my group wordsmiths. We wrote a procedural on something we knew how to cook. In Te Waka Ako we'v leant these passed few weeks that a procedural is to write instructions on how to make, cook or do something. Bossy verbs and nouns NEED to be included. In our writing group some people did toast and chicken as there topic to do the procedural on. But I chose butter chicken. First we had to explain what we needed like the equiptment and ingredients. Then we wrote our procedural for the food. What I found fun was having different ideas and writing what I knew. What I found difficult was deciding what food I was going to do. I also found remembering the steps hard. But I found something to writte about and idn the end I did my peace of writing. Heres my procedural hope you like it. Please feel free to comment.
