Get NZ Writing!

We were so excited to be chosen for the Get NZ Writing box from SchoolKit and Warehouse Stationary. We filled in this fun poster together, sharing information about our class. We learnt how to write found poems and enjoyed choosing a piece of text to turn into a poem. 

We learnt about similes and metaphors too. We practised by writing some about the building of our new classrooms and some about ourselves too. We look forward to putting these into our writing more during the year too.

We are practising to read quietly. Finn
