Number sentences

I am learning to make groups to five and write number sentences. 

"I had to put the bears where they were supposed to be. I chose 4 green bears and 1 yellow bear. There were 5 altogether. It is tricky for me to write number sentences. I am proud when I put my teddies on my whiteboard." 

Writing for a purpose

We published our story. Our story was about mum. Mum was our word of the week and it was going to be mothers day. We wrote our story so Mum could read it. We have been learning that we write for a purpose. The purpose of our story was to tell Mum something we like about her.  

"I had to colour in my flowers. My story was about me and my mum. We wrote about mum because it was mothers day. It is tricky to colour all my flowers and write different words."

Retelling my story

I am learning to retell our story. I had to draw what happened in our story. Nanny was on the computer and Aroha was talking to nanny on the computer. They talked to nanny on the computer because Aroha missed nanny. It is tricky for me to remember our story.
