DIalogue
L.I to use and correctly puntuate dialogue dialogue when writing
This week we looked at dialogue and how to porperly use it. Dialogue is a conversation between two people in a book, text or play. To indicate dialogue you use speechmarks at the begginging and the end of the conversation. Dialogue is important because you can show what is heppening in the text instead of telling what is happeneing.

Main Ideas - New New Zealanders
L.I to identify the main ideas
We were tasked to read a story called "New New Zealanders," it was about how a boy named Christian Kaka and his family seeked for a better life in New Zealand due to the war going on at Syria. After the story we were tasked to identify the main ideas in the text. For the Three Vital Ideas were Registered refugees can't be sent back to their country, The Refugees wanted people to know their story and many families moved to New Zealand because their country is to dangerous.
This activity was interesting because I found out what Syria is going through and that there are many problems outside of New Zealand.

Cinquain Poem
L.I to write a cinquain poem that describes a sports star
We have been learning to write cinquain poems to help us strengthen our connections to description. A cinquain poem has 5 lines. Each line has a different purpose. Line 1 is a noun which is a name. Line 2 has 2 adjectives that describe the noun. Line 3 has 3 verbs that end in ‘ing’ and describe the actions. Line 4 is a noun phrase which is a group of words (not a sentence) that go together to describe the noun. Line 5 is a synonym which is a word with a similar meaning to the noun.
I enjoyed this activity because we made a poem about a athlethe you like.
My Reading Pathway
L.I to show my personal journey through books
This week is book week at Panmure Bridge School, which means every class participates in a number of reading activities. One of our activities was to create a reading pathway that shows how my favourite books have changed over time. At the moment I like reading the Dem Slayer manga because it has lots of fights and it has a good story.
