elections witing
WALT: Write an effective argument for our chosen political party.
Have you voted for National yet.
If not, don't because the Maori Party have better politics
Iam going to cover halving power bills for households with rheumatic fever and make doctor and dentist visits free for under 18s,Provide everyone over 55 with one free annually doctor and dentist visit The first thing i will be talking about is the price of power. The first thing i will be talking about is the price of power.
The first thing i will be talking about is the price of power.
The Maori Party wont to half the house bills so it make it easier to wamer the house. They can also put some of the money towards the kids getting healthier and also they can also save their money so they can get a healthier house so the kid and parents don't get sick all the time.As well as halving power bills for households another good reason is making doctor and dentist visits free for under 18s.
Make doctor and dentist visits free for under 18s.
Right now it’s only free for under 14s or 15s and Its is go because if you get all of your doctor and dentist visit from 0 to 18 it will help you when you're older also Lots of young people don’t make their own money so there parents shouldn't have to pay for the visits especially if they don't have lots of money.As well as making doctor and dentist visits free for under 18s another good reason is provide everyone over 55 with one free annually doctor and dentist visits .
Provide everyone over 55 with one free annually doctor and dentist visit. Everyone over 55 will get one free doctors and dentist visit a year and It most likely older people get heart easier and that means that mighty need get more visit and if it's out in the pupil and they don't have money on them they can have it for free one time a year.Some people over 55 they are starting to retirer some of them anet make as much money so once a year they can have one doctor's visit and one dentist visit a year.
Labour wants to Abolish National Standards
Labour wants to get ride of National Standards and bring in a new system this bad because the students don't know what is on there National Standards and if they have national standards they can see what they are learning and they can show their family what that are learning. Why do they have to to do this students need to know what learning they have done .
Overall I thinking the maori party is the best party if i could vote i will vote for the maori party.
In this pace of writing i have explained provide everyone over 55 with one free annually doctor and dentist visit, halve power bills for households with rheumatic fever and make doctor and dentist visits free for under 18s.Ciley you know who i'm voting for how about you
My next steps are: Use the capitals in the right spot.

reading t2
For reading over the past five weeks I have been focussing on:
I can monitor my reading for accuracy and sense, demonstrating that I have the confidence to adjust my reading (e.g., by varying the speed of reading, by rereading, and by attending to the most important information) when I encounter difficulties.
And
I can make connections between my prior knowledge and the concrete examples in a text in order to understand abstract ideas in the text.
During this time, I have been reading with the teacher a
nd also using an online tool called Read Theory to help practise these skills.
My two favourite texts I read were:
- …. Earthquakes because it was base in Christchurch and it was insetting.
- …. Getting to work because it was insetting how people get to work all different ways .
Here is a screenshot of my Read Theory results

Dracula
I think my dad is Dracula.
I know that sounds insane,
but listen for a moment and
allow me to explain.
We don’t live in a castle,
and we never sleep in caves.
But, still, there’s something weird
about the way my dad behaves.
I never see him go out
in the daytime when it’s light.
He sleeps all day till evening,
then he leaves the house at night.
|
Persuasive
|
It telling me something from their point of view.

Black Sticks beat India to take series
The Black Sticks have beaten India in their latest International 6-2 to completed a clean sweep in their five match series. Striker Olivia Merry scored a double in the first quarter, Pippa Hayward, Natasha FitzSimons, Sam Harrison and Kirsten Pearce all added to card for the Black Sticks. Head coach Sean Dancer said despite the win there are areas the side needs to work on. “There are certainly areas we need to get better at, but I thought the performance today highlighted some positive things we’ve been working on,” he said. “To their credit India were tough, but a couple of our goals scored were scored through strong striker actions and that’s very pleasing.”
Goldilocks - a thief?
We all heard the story when we were little kids about a sweet blond who was hungry, so she got into the home of some bears to eat.
She was a good kid. Right? We all liked her and heard about her again and again.
Now think about it. If you are hungry. Would you get into someone's house?
Not only that she got into their home and ate the bears dinner, but she also BROKE THEIR CHAIRS!
That's already private property violation, theft, and vandalism! Enough to put you behind the bars for some time.
But that's not enough. She also went to sleep in their beds!
So that also adds an illegal house occupation attempt!
I think that it's all a big conspiracy trying to teach the young kids that stealing is fine and recommendable.
So were we fed with tales about a sweet girl, or about a thief and vandal?
|
informative .
entertaining?
|
Because it telling me info about the black sticks.
It entertaining because most stories are entertaining .
