Anzac stories

HI, bloggers this week we have been learning information, reading books and discussing Anzac day. We have read some stories about what happens on Anzac day, I found out that there was dawn parades and other parades like  The ceremony which  is a parade that talks about what is Anzac day. I thought that dawn parades were during the day but they weren't, they are early in the morning. I found out that people from  World War 2  are still alive today and people from Word War 1 arent because they would be over 100 years old. We read two stories, one of them was my granddad marches on Anzac. The other story we read was, Least we forget. ANZAC day is to commemorate soldiers that went to war from New Zealand . We did some activities after reading the story, which were really fun to be honest.  We finished of with reading a poem.

Here are some photos of what we have been doing.

  1. Hi Manea, its me Clara in Manukau. I really like how you explained what you did for reading. This reminded me of when I had to do some ANZAC work as well. I think you can work on your punctuation when you are talking about what you learnt. If you would like to see my learning my blog is https://wpsclarak.blogspot.com/

Summer learning (week 1/ Day 1)

Today's  activity for the summer learning journey is finding out three top facts about New Zealand on the Tourism New Zealand site.  My first facts about New Zealand is,   New Zealand is part of the pacific rim of fire and it's most active volcano is Mount Ruapehu , which is found in the middle of the North Island . Did you know that? The Auckland sky tower is the tallest freestanding structure in the southern hemisphere, standing at 328 meters high.  Last fact about New Zealand that I found interesting was  30% of the country is forest. So there must be a lot of trees then. CAN YOU FIND OUT SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT NEW ZEALAND? LEAVE A COMMENT ON WHAT YOU FOUND OUT BLOG YOU LATER

Summer learning journey

Morena bloggers, Today in Literacy tumble we are doing something called the Summer Learning Journey.  We had to pick a country and, I picked Australia. The two reasons why I picked Australia is because one my favorite netball player is married to an Australian rugby player and, two because I wanted to find out about Australia so I can tell my aunt, who lives in Australia.  Who wants to find out about Australia? Lets Go.... In Australia the capital is  Canberra, there are many other places like Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.  In Australia they have a holiday called Australia Day, which is on the 26th of January. On Australian day they eat things like Pavlova and also chips down at the beach. The national colours are Green and gold and they usually have a Kangaroo on their sports uniform.

Zoofari

Hi, bloggers as part of our inquiry we went to Auckland Zoo.  We went and saw the New Zealand animals because that is our inquiry focus this term. Each class went with one of the zoo educators. We were sent to specific place in the zoo, we went to see the New Zeland birds and animals like the tuatara.  Some of the birds we saw were a kereru, kaka, bellbird and teike (which is a stichbird). We also went into the Bug Lab where we got to learn about bugs and do some activites. My favrouite activity was when you made a butterfly and tried seeing how high it could fly. After that we got to explore some other animlals around the zoo. My favrouite animlal was the elephant because it was doing somthing really really funny. Here are some photos of the day! Here is us being a Tuatra Blog you later๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
