Metaphor Poem by Isabella

Get NZ Writing

This week we have continued to work on our Get NZ Writing project. It's been so much fun. The puzzle pieces are now complete. Some of our metaphor poems are published here on our blog.

Google Maps

As part of Get NZ Writing We had to find a location that was 1km, 5km and 10km from our school- Kerikeri Primary School. We used Google Maps to search for the places 1km, 5km and 10km from the school. We had so many learning conversations comparing decimals and using our knowledge of Kerikeri and the surrounding areas to make estimations about which locations were closer and which were further away. We were so excited about the power of Google Maps and even found Luke's old address in Japan!! It was so exciting!

#GetwritingNZ challenges

Today in Toutouwai we took on some of the #Get writing NZ Challenges. How many children in our class do you think can..... cross their eyes?.... wiggle their ears?..... roll their tongue??? and LICK THEIR ELBOWS?? Lots of giggles and lots of fun!

#GetWriting Metaphors

We have been learning to write Metaphors. We have been comparing ourselves to an animal, a vehicle, a food and a musical instrument.
