Writers Passport Presentation

I created a presentation about Sentence Endings, and Sentence Types.

First, I read the Sentence Endings page. Sentence Endings are symbols called punctuation that are put at the end of sentences or in the middle of sentences. For example: Commas are used within sentences.

Next, I read the Sentence Types page. There are three different topics of sentence types. Simple, Compound, and Complex. Simple Sentences are about one piece of information. Compound Sentences are two or more simple sentences. Complex Sentences have two or more ideas.

I enjoyed this activity because I learnt different things about both of these topics.  

Homework Book Year 6 | Unit 3 Our Cultural Festival

I completed unit 3 of Homework Book Year 6.

First, I answerd some questions. Why do you think that there are now more cultures included in a New Zealand school's cultural festival? Do you think this diversity adds value to New Zealand society? What do you think the cultures represented in the programme might have in common with each other? 

Next, I did word power. I had to underline the right onomatopoeia. For example: Bang! The car door slammed shut.

Then, I did a couple of other tasks and moved on to something more activity. I had to figure out the scrambled word and match it with the definition. For example: elami - Sends messages electronicly/ EMail

I enjoyed doing this acitivty because this helps me understand everything about our cultural festival.

Fairy Tale

I finally finished my fractured fairy tale. 

First Week 1, I did three SSR Selfies based on three fairy tales. The fairy tales were Little Red Riding Hood, Maui and the Sun, and Three Billy Goats Gruff.

Next Week 2, I did a story arch. I had to do the orientation, inciting incident, rising action problems, climax, success or failure, and resolution.

Then Week 3, I split my three fairy tales into a table and put down 4 categories. They are Characters, Settings, Problem, and Solution.

Then Week 4, I did my planning. My story was mixed with WWE, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Harry Potter.
