Last week the people from Blake Education came to visit our school and they gave us a lesson about saving our oceans. They brought a whole lot of Virtual Reality headsets with them and we all got to wear one. It was just like you really were under the water. We saw whales, dolphins, seals and stingrays. We saw beautiful, clean, clear water filled with colourful fish and sea plants. We also saw cloudy, dirty water and bare rocks where nothing could survive. This is a follow-up activity that Miss Fletcher designed for us.
I am a Year 5 student in Team Moana at Ohaeawai School in Northland, New Zealand.

Asking questions in Te Reo.
We have been learning how to ask questions in Te Reo. The question was :
E aha ana koe? This means: What are you doing?
Then we had to be able to answer that question several times using different Te Reo verbs.
Here is my work.

Recoeding cicada
Hi, my name's Brody and me and my friend Daniel (check out his blog, it's bad ,trust me), we made something called recoding a cicada's lifecycle. I was the original owner of it but I made Daniel the owner because he did lots of the work. I hope you like it because if you don't, Daniel will cry!

Chocolate
This writing task was about a language experience. Our teachers brought different kinds of chocolate to school and we got to eat it! We tried white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel chocolate and pink chocolate. We could write about it in any way we liked but our teachers hoped we would use lots of describing language and our senses.
