Role models

Last term my class had to write who my role model is and why are they your role model. For this I picked my parents.

Why ___ is my role model
Remember the T.I.I.C structure.

T	Title - What you will be explaining
I	Introduction - Tell your audience what the topic is about and what is to be explained.
I	Information - Explain the elements or steps in a logical sequence
C	Conclusion - Final summarising statement, an evaluation or comment about what you have explained.

Title	My role models
Introduction	I am writing about why my parents are my role models and how they have nurtured me to be the person I am today.
Information 1st element	I love my dad so much and I am really thankful that I have my dad in my life. My dad would always go out of his way to take me to my games or just go and get something that I wanted even though it was a wishful tho. I look up to my dad because he always helps people and he would always do something to help out. He is caring and loving and that is what makes him an inspiration.
Information 2nd element	I love my mum because she is the best person in the world. She is always there for me and always will even when she passes. I look up to my mum because she always lights up my day even when her day is not going well. My mum would always feed people when they are at our house or when we have heaps of bags of bread she would put them into plastic bags and gives it out to the neighbourhood. I just know that my mum is the best and no one would ever replace her.
Information 3rd element	I look up to my mum and dad because they always help everybody in our community. They love, care and respect others because they teach us that we should always treat others the way we would like to be treated.
Conclusion	They reason I picked my mum and dad as my role models is because I love them so much and they are a great impact to my life.

Quick Write

Every morning Miss Tupou puts a photo up on the TV and we have about 10-15 minutes to write about the photo. Here is one of my quick writes.

The girl and the fox

Earlier this term we watched a video called the girl and the fox. From the video we identified the 8 main events as a class. After that we had to choose one main event to write about. Here are the 8 main events. We had to highlight which one we wanted to do and write about it. 

The Girl and the Fox

8 main events

• Opening scene- Girl finds a dead bird.
• Girl goes in search of a creature killing the birds
• Sees fox for the first time, it jumps over her and runs off
• She catches the fox, pins it down knife to throat, couldn’t kill it
• It starts to snow, she gets lost in the woods
• She collapses
• The fox comes and snuggles the girl for warmth
• In the morning, family finds her at takes her home.

As I continue on my exploration, I unexpectedly hear an unfamiliar sound. I stroll towards the bush and without expectation the snowy white  fox leaps over my head. I fell down with frustration, the fox runs off, stands from the top of the hill and gives me a glare. As i get up, I stand on the  top of the hill and scope side to side, hoping to see the white fox. Suddenly I see the mysterious  fox nearby, i dropped my lamp to trick the fox,. Then bam! I grabbed it and pinned it down. I put my knife to its  furry neck and look into its sea blue eyes but  I couldn't do it.

Pepeha

Last term we created a pepeha to introduce ourselves to our new classmates. Our pepehas had to be all about ourselves. They represented us and they also represented where we are from and our families. Pepehas are written in the Maori language. 

I am poem

I am kind and sporty

I wonder why I get sad for homeless people

I see pictures when I look up into the sky

I want a good future

I hear the sounds of good memories

I am kind and sporty

I pretend like my mum and dad will be with me forever

I feel the love that I get from my parents

I touch the cold air that gives me goosebumps

I worry what my future is going to be like

I cry when a loved one leaves this world

I am the person who runs my life

I understand that life isn’t fair

I say things that I feel bad about

I dream happy things

I hope that this world doesn’t end

I am who I want to be

I am
