Battle of Ohaeawai
We went for a school trip to Ngawha (old Ohaeawai) at the beginning of the term. We have been learning about the Battle of Ohaeawai, between the British and Maori that happened at Ngawha in 1845. Now there is a church on the site called St Michaels Church. The pa and the pekerangi (fence) used in the battle was the first use of trench warfare. Here are some things we created to show our learning.
Play Make Create
Today for Play Make Create we read a stroy called That’s not the Monster I ordered. It was about two families that ordered a monster and how different each monster was. We had to create our own monster and decide what he can do.
Speech Marks Writing
We have been learning about the correct placement of speech marks in our writing. We had to choose from a choice board and complete tasks. Some tasks used speech bubbles and some used speech marks. We know that speech marks are used around the words we put inside a speech bubble.
