Limerick

In class, we have been learning about limericks, different poems, and features. The class had to choose a person they know and write a poem about them. 

In class, I learned about limerick poems. They are poems that rhyme and can have 5 lines, the first two sentences have to rhyme then you change the third and fourth sentences because they can't rhyme with the first and second sentences, then you finish the fifth sentence.

Kobe:

I once met a girl from Kaikohe

She always said kahore

And her name was Kobe

Who knew nobody

That is my friend I met from Kaikohe

Erosion and Meander Slides

In class we had to choose different topics that link to rivers. We had the choice of doing a puppet show, make slides, and say your topic out loud with cards. Me and Kobe chose to make slides about our topics, erosion and meanders. We did research on erosion and meanders, finding websites to help us learn and understand what erosion and meanders are. Each group would stand up and present their topics to the class. 

Here is the work me and Kobe have done.

Ki-o-rahi Reflection

Yesterday our class went to a ki-o-rahi tournament in Tautoro to play against other schools. We played against intermediate and Tautoro school. There were two teams we had, team 1 `give it a go team´ and team 2 `in it to win it´ team. We also had to do a group reflection about it. After the tournament, we came 3rd and Tautoro school came 1st. It was fun to play as well and being outside the classroom.

Here is the work that me and Anahera have done. Also, there are photos down the bottom.
