reading authors purpose

 Hi viewers,

we had to answer questions about the book like why do you recon the author rote the book and who do you recon it is for. All the answer that I did are down here. Here is the link for the book here here are 2 pictures from the book.

Leo

1. Write a paragraph explaining why you think the author wrote this story.

Think about:

-Important decisions the characters made.

-Who the book is written for

-What someone might learn or understand from reading it.

The book that I have been reading is Badge of Honor’. The main characters are Tomasi and Issac who have been chosen as school captains. Miss Latu doesn’t know that Tomasi gets into fights but Isaac knows that Tomasi gets into fights after school and Isaac doesn't think that Tomasi should be a school captain. Tomasi needs to make a decision whether or not he should tell Miss Latu. The problem is that Tomasi and Isaac are friends. 

Issac decides not to tell Mrs Latu that Tomasi fights after school so I think that this makes Issac just as guilty as Tomasi. 

I think that this book is a bit more for smaller kids so that when they get older they don’t get into fights after school.

Fighting is bad so they should NOT do fights ever unless you have karate and you should tell on those in this case bye.

Thanks for reading what was your favorite.

16-3-2021 Almost swallowed by a whale

 Kia ora readers,                                                           

We have watched an interview video here is the link here ( youtube video) then we did interviewer questions and diver answer. We have been learning how to write a recount. As year 6's we need to say who why what when and how. We need to write in first person (I) and past tense. We have been focusing on using dialogue, emotion and strong vocabulary.

Here is the interviewer that I wrote, imagining I was the diver and telling my recount of this experience.

Almost swallowed by a whale

Interviewer: What were you taking photos off before you got swallowed by the whale? 

Diver: Well I was taking photos of the famous sardine and all the marine animals there like sharks, whales, and sea creatures that feed on sardines..`

Interviewer: So you had this incredible experience and  are lucky to be life. Tell what happened?

Diver:  I was very lucky to survive. I could have drowned if the brutus whale didn’t spit me out and dived down.

Interviewer: what did it feel like when you were inside the whale?

Diver: It was pitch black inside there was heaps of pressure I instantly knew it was a whale.

Interviewer: how did you not panic?

Diver: There was no time to panic inside the whale because it is not the whale it is the situation.

Interviewer: what did it feel like after the experience?

Diver:  Fine I still wanted to swim right after I went swimming again.

I hope you were entertained! Please let me know what you thought about my post in the comments below. Have an amazing weekend thank you for reading my blog.
