Reading arguments

We have been learning how to write speeches. We learned about argument writing. We had to read some paragraphs and then choose a 'groups of three sentence' which would suit it. I found this really hard but Matua Ken helped me.

Going to the beach.

Kia ora

This is the first story I wrote when I came to Ohaeawai School. I think I did well because I used: When,who,where and what. I also said how I was feeling. My teacher gave me these goals for next time: Use people's names and use adjectives to describe them.

On the weekend my dad, uncle and I went to Paihia to get mussels and pippies. We stayed for two hours. It
was fun.  I splashed my uncle and he got a fright.It was time to go home.
I was so worn out that I fell asleep in the car on the way home.
