Onomatopoeia

 

We had to draw fireworks and then describe how they looked.

We were learning to use onomatopoeia to make our writing more effective.

It was hard to use these words in my writing because I haven't used words like that before.  It did help me to think about the sounds that fireworks make when I was doing my writing.'

Next time I need to put a little more description and detail in my writing.

Te Whare Tapa Wha

 

We had to make a slide that showed how we keep the walls of our whare strong.

It was a challenge to show Whaiwhakaaro and think about myself in that way because I have never done that before.  Once I got started I understood what I needed to do.  Next time I will find better images to show how my family support me.
