We have started our week with enthusiasm and excitement. Our class photo was taken outside the Intermediate Inquiry Room. We have started our Inquiry about "The Treaty of Waitangi." Students came up with many questions and are working in their groups researching information. I hope parents and whanau are playing the place value maths homework activities.

My Mother

Do you have someone who is great, spends time with you, cares for you, and is an important person? Well, I do, and she has black hair, brown eyes, and a caring touch. That’s my mum.
My mum talks to me about many things. One of the things she talks to me about is what will happen when I grow up. She tells me what to do in case of an emergency. And one day I had a really bad day with my friends, and she told me what to do about it.
My mum and I spend a lot of time together. We play games, bake cookies, make necklaces, and draw doodle tricks. But our favorite thing to do is read. Our favorite book is If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.
Mum takes me shopping at the mall. We buy toys and clothes, and we eat at the cafĂ©. We usually get Chinese food or go to a McDonald’s restaurant. When we ride the escalator, my mom pretends to fall back and says, “My shoestring’s stuck!”
My mum always laughs, and when she laughs she sounds like a hyena gone crazy! She doesn’t laugh every day, but when she does, it’s hilarious, and I have to laugh, too!
My mum is the greatest. I love how she jokes around. She is always fun no matter what, and she gives me great advice. My mum is more than a mum; she is like my best friend!
This exemplar enabled students to write some fantastic pieces of writing.  Check their blogs.

  1. Like the part about your Mum's laugh. Sounds like a very infectious laughter. Well done on getting the capitals for your mum right. You might like to think about starting paragraphs with a variety of beginnings. (Medbury)
