Super Suffragettes

 WALT: To make a poster about Kate Sheppard and Meri Te Tai Mangakāhia.

Today for part of my distance learning was to make a poster about Kate Sheppard and Meri Te Tai Mangakāhia.  They were suffragettes in the 1860s when women wanted the right to vote.  It was a fun activity and it was challenging sometimes which is good.  I made the poster on Google drawings.  I liked making it on google drawings because it is a fun tool to use.  Here is the drawing. 

What do you know about suffragettes?

Attributes that you use in a poem

 WALT: Decode meaning from poetry

For Reading today the Red group (That's my reading group) had to do the activity that is on slide 6. We had to watch a video about what makes a poem a poem, then we had to write down six things that make a poem a poem. It was easy to do although the person narrating the video was mumbling, so it was hard to understand him. I wrote that the attributes in a poem are rhythm, rhyme, metre, condensed words, intense feelings and breaks in the writing to make it easier to read. I did this in google slides.

Do you have any more attributes that you can use in a poem?

Super Cool Duffy!

WALT: To select and read texts for enjoyment and fulfilment.
Today we got Duffy books at school.   The books I chose were Revenge of the Sis and Unschooled.  

 I think that Revenge of the Sis will be about Christina Starspeeder and she is at a Jedi Academy.    I  also think that Unschooled is about some kids who go crazy at school so the don't get much school work done.   Have you read these books?
