Term 3 Week 8-9 The Kiwi's have now finished their book and are now going to teach the rest of the class a type of poem. Here is a site to find a type of poem you would like to teach the class. [|Different types of poems] Make sure you are all teaching a different type of poem - you will need to write an exemple of the poem your self and write up some instructions so the rest of the class can write their own. Some examples of poems - haiku, cinquain, limerick etc

We will be doing lots of reading to find the answers to our inquiry questions.

Term 3 week 6 Well done with the plays - everyone seemed to improve as we continued to read our parts. We will continue to read our chapter books and interesting articles from Gogo News. Term 3 Weeks 1-5 We will be working out different plays to be part of. Once we have organised a play we want to be a part of we will need to learn all our part and make props. By week 3 we will be sharing our plays with our class and making sure we know our words and have our props sorted. By week 4 we should be ready to share our plays with other classes.

In your reading book write the date and the name of the story you are going to listen to. Think about the moral to the story.    Week 4 Click on this link to go to [|Storynory].
