Olympic Flag Writing

WALT: Describe the significance of the Olympic rings.

Here is my writing!

The rings represent the continents of the world.

The flag includes Europe, America, Africa, Asia and Oceania.

The rings were designed in 1912 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin. It also represents the athletes all around the world from different countries. We need to treasure the Olympic symbol because it's an important part of the Olympics. It also is about the Olympic flag that brings us all together!!

Every country in the Olympics has one of the Olympic rings colors in their flag! The creator of the Olympic rings is also known as “the father of the modern Olympics”!!

My Habitat Collage -Claudia

WALT: Describe habitats in New Zealand and species that live there.

I can Identify several animals from species groups and the habitats they live in. I can give reasons why they live in this habitat. I can look at these animals and habitat in a new way by showing my understanding through the art of collage and a written description.

My collage is of the forest habitat and shows three different creatures that live there - the Pukeko, the Fantail and a sleeping Kiwi.

Explanation

Over the past couple of weeks we have been learning to write a explanation. The first one we did was a bike explanation but Mrs Baker said if we finish the bike explanation then we can do our own one . Did you know that for an explanation you can't put the word you and that for an explanation the title has to be a question??
