In the weekend I went to the Number One Shoes with my mum, sister and Satui. We were going to buy me and Satui new shoes.

After we bought new shoes we put them in the car and drove to McDonald’s for four soft cones and two flakes.

After we ate our soft cones we drove home and when we got home Satui said “why did we buy new shoes?” I answered “because our old shoes are dirty.”

T4 W2 - 16.10.14

WALT write a successful explanation with an introduction, 3 main paragraphs and a conclusion.

Why Dogs Bark

Dogs bark for lots of reasons.

Dogs bark because they might protect us and chase people they don’t know. They might bite, growl and hurt people.

Dogs bark because they are scared of people and of other big dogs. Dogs might bark because of loud noises.

Some dogs might bark if they’re happy to see you or if you play some games with them.

I like dogs.

WALT write an explanation using paragraphs for each idea.

How do we look after your dog or puppy.

You need to take your puppy or dog training so that they can be big and healthy. If your dogs are sick you better need to take your dog or puppy to the vet.

Dogs need lots of food to eat so they can get bigger. You can feed them dog biscuits and lots of food. You need to make them drink fresh water.

Dogs and puppies need a safe place to live and a good place to play. You need a fenced garden so your dog doesn’t go out of your house.

Then I said I don’t want to come here so we went to bowling and see if thats right for me. So when we got inside we went to the counter so we can choose a place to go. Then we went to the last one at the back. I said i want to go first so I did. Then I felt better than before. Then we went home to go to sleep.

T2 W9 - 23.6.14

WALT write an explanation text

Home Safety

It is important to stay safe at home.

When you’re at home always shut and lock doors and windows. If you’re at home by yourself and someone knocks, look and see if you know them but if you’re with an adult wake them up and tell them.

If your mum or dad is asleep don’t touch anything hot or sharp because they hurt you. If you see a lighter tell your dad. When your dad cooks remember to tell them to check if it is switched off.

If you’re in the bathroom don’t leave the water running because it will turn into a big flood. Remember to keep things clean and tidy.

If you do all these things you will be safe at home.

They saw the dragon and cut it’s head off. When they finished fighting the dragon the ogre cried “Why? Why did you kill him?” the ogre shouted “Now I’m going to kill you you big fat meany.” So they started to fight. When they fighted he grabbed his sword off the dirty ground and said “bring it on!” so Jack went to the ogre and cut his head off. After that they set off home safely and lived happily ever after with Sunny.
