Tim Tipene Author visit!!

Tim’s message is that there is a warrior in everyone. I enjoyed when he read the books and he used expression when he was talking as the characters. He also said that when he is writing his books he is all of the characters. Before he came to our school Shirley, our school librarian read one of his books. These are the names of his books: Hinemoa Te Toa, Taming the Taniwha, The Wooden Fish and Maui the Sun Catcher.  

Slideshow about america!!!

Our group’s WALT was to find information about the world around us and our success criteria is :

-I can use map skills to find locations.

-I can scan texts to find information

-I can read texts to make connections with different countries and cultures.  

I think our group did well and we found facts that amazed us. We worked collaboratively in our groups to make a slide show. I think we need to add more interesting facts to our slide show. We enjoyed making the slideshow because we got to get creative.
