My Book Review

Author: Ryder Windham Illustrator: Ryder Windham My Book Review

Title:  Star Wars episode IV a new hope.

The book was about:  Fights between the good and the bad, and also about the princess and luke skywalker saving the world for their father, Darth vader.  ( Even know he is bad he has 2 children just like their mother queen Amidala.

What I liked about it:  When leia and luke found out they were brother and sister, when they saved the world for their mother and father.  (D.V = Darth vader / Q.A = Queen Amidala.)

Reading this made me wonder if:  We could maybe have powers like Darth vader, I also wonder if we could be as cool as the people in the story, I wonder.

My favourite character and why:  Darth vader because he has the force, he is second boss of the stormtroopers, he is the father of luke and leia and the husband of Amidala.

A picture I really liked in the book was:  When all the people were running for their lives because it had lots of detail on the characters and it made me wonder if they sculpted the bodies and faces or just dressed the person in close and did the face.  I really want to know how they do it.

Overall this book was really awesome

Give this book a 5 stars

NZ opera

Jax’s fish ‘n’ chips                                        

Purpose: Thank you note

Dear Jaxs

Thank you for coming to Rangikura school to show us how to do opera.

I liked the show very much because it was a new experience of singing for me. because I have never heard anything like that before.  My most favourite part was when the salesmen said that it was achelly L&P.

Question:  How did the salesmen make the drink yellow is it yellow food colouring with vinegar in it in secret?

Yours sincerely

Book

These are my duffy books for term 1.

The book that is on the left is called te popi whero which means the red poppy and this book is about... someones dad going to war but in stead of him saying it to there mother he just writers a note and heads off.  This book is rotten in maori but if you ask a person that is this language they can tell you what it means.  Also it is about men going to war and also about the red poppy representing the people that went to war and died.

This book on the right is about a team of girls that are mice and they are a little bit like spies because they investigate were a evil person has taken shinny things and stuff.  It is also about going on adventures and going to a ball were there are lovely dresses and lots of stuff you could think of.  Also this book is about the Thea sisters, Geronimo Stilton, and Thea Stilton.  And here are the Thea sisters names and there talent...
Nicky is always in a good mood when she's outdoors.
Colette is energetic and full of good ideas.
Pamela is a peacemaker who can't stand arguments.
Paulina loves traveling and helping other rodents.
Violet is detail-oriented and always open to new things.

And here are were they live.

My Fern From Te Reo

I did this with my te reo teacher

This is my fern. This fern is real and did you know that ferns live for a really long time.

Mate atu he tete kura        When one fern dies
Ara mai he tete kura          Another fern takes its place

Leave a comment below and maybe I will leave a video of my te reo class singing this whakatoki  about the fern.

Venn Diagram

Venn Diagram                           John Venn was the one that invented a Venn diagram and why                                                                       students at schools are using them today.Without a Venn
    Try it                                      diagram it will be hard at this school.

This was the diagram we were using in class with our teacher.With this diagram we had to read 2 different books about Fiji's fishing and Tokelau people fish. This diagram represents those 2 books. Now instead of saying different and same we are learning to say big words like.....Differences and Similarities.

This is my  Venn diagram
