Kiwiana

This term our Reading project was Kiwiana and I chose to do Kiwiana Icons. The easy part was finding kiwiana icons. The hard part was finding non Kiwiana icons. Here is my slide of kiwiana icons and non kiwiana icons                                                                                                                                                                                      

My day.

Today My class was split up because the year fives and sixes are off to camp. I was placed in room 5 and I will be in their class for the whole week. The fun part of the day was when we did fitness. The boring part of the day was doing our PAT math test though I know it is an important test to take. The rest of the day was fine and fun. Can't wait to see what we do for the rest of the week.

Persuasive.

This week we were doing persuasive writing. Here is my writing, it's about if sports is better than kapa haka. Have a read.


Sports is better than kapa haka.

To begin with I say kapa haka is better than sports because it helps with singing.

To start with kapa haka can help you with your confidence and it can help you with your discipline.

Secondly I say kapa haka is better because you can get fit by doing all the haka jumps and performing the haka your hardest.


Another reason kapa haka is better than sports is that you get to learn new songs, new haka and new action songs to perform to your family.


One thing I know for sure is kapa haka is better than sports because it helps with your confidence and discipline. You can get fit by doing haka jumps and performing the haka your hardest. You get to learn new songs, new haka and new action songs to perform to your family. all in all I say kapa haka is better than sports, what do you think?
