Word of the week. (First word of the week of 2020!)

 Hi, are you excited for 2020! This week the word Miss Farr choose was sovereignty. Miss Farr choose it because as you know (maybe) it was Waitangi day on Thursday, Miss Farr read the class and I a book about Waitangi day. In the book, it had the word sovereignty.

The Tree Hut Treaty

Today My teacher (Miss Farr) read the class and I a book called The Tree Hut Treaty.
Then she made this slide on the class site for us to fill in. She split us into groups to help each other with this activity, My group was emma (https://paroagreyemmabl.blogspot.com/) and
Kalani.  (http://paroagreykalanin.blogspot.com/) I think we all worked well together as a group. After the whole class was finished this activity we all came down to the mat and we made a class treaty.

Summer Learning Journey - Week one - Activity 3

The charity I choose was the SPCA. The SPCA takes care of animals who are hurt, sick, abused or abandoned. The SPCA helps take care and protect 40,000 animals each year! (That is a crazy amount of animals.) The SPCA finds abandoned animals and take care of them and finds a new home for each and every one of them, but first, the SPCA has to fix up the animal and see if it is hurt or sick or has been abused. The SPCA does a wonderful job at helping the animals.

PS: I hope all of the animals all have an awesome home now.

Questions:
Do you like animals?
Do you have an animal?
Do you want an animal? (If you don't have one.)

Summarising - The Force

WALT: summarise
My group and I had to read the story called The Force. Then after we read the story we had to summarise. Summarise means that when you read a story, you have to retell the story (in your own words) with the only important parts. What I think that was challenging was to learn how to summarise. For this activity, I liked to read the book because I like reading and because I am learning new things. (Like summarising.) I hope you like my blog post. By Katelyn.M
