Close up Indian portrait

Hi. This is my Chapter Chat activity. It is an Indian. I got to draw an Indian because in the little house on the prairie book the family encounter an Indian. My favorite thing about my Indian is his feathered headband. In my picture my Indian has red bits on the feathers. I put red on the feathers because with the red on the feathers it makes the picture pop! Also it makes the picture more interesting.
Here is my Indian picture.

Chapter Chat Gopher

Kia ora. Recently we have started reading Little House On The Prairie for Chapter Chat. One of the Chapter Chat activities to choose from was to draw a little Gopher. The reason why we could draw a Gopher is because in the book the children encountered some Gophers and had some fun trying to catch them. Here is my drawing. It is of a little brown Gopher peeking out of a hole in the ground.

Chapter Chat Map

Hi Daniel here.
As a class we are taking part in a program called "Chapter Chat". Basically how it works is that a bunch of classes all around New Zealand read a few chapters the same book every week. The book we're reading is called " The Explorer". It's about a bunch of kids that were in a plane crash in the amazon and they have to try and survive and get home. The catch is that they find a bunch of rusted, man made stuff like a sketched a map, flint, a pen knife, an old sardines can and an old tobacco packet scattered around the place and they think someone might have been there before them.

Each week have to do questions related to the book so far.  But along with questions there are also some set tasks that we have to choose from. Here is the task I did from this week. It is a map of the class but all the tables/ desks/ spaces are places from the book.

Mothers Day Card

This is a pic of the card I made for mum.

Recently is was mothers day. In class I made this card. On the inside there was a poem. The steps/ instructions  of the poem went like this.  Alliteration, 3 adjectives, what my mum calls me, a simile and 3 words of my choice.

On the Outside of the card as you can see we painted the card/ paper that we were using. After we had painted we cut out love hearts to stick on. Next we got  photos taken of us doing something. I chose blowing kisses.

When my card was finished I was proud and on Mothers Day mum was too.

This is my poem that was on the inside of the card.
