WALT: write a persuasive writing.
Today in room 8 we had to write a persuasive writing about why teachers need their original holiday and why they don't deserve a strike.
Reflection- Something I found hard was trying to figure out what the solution will be and something I found easy was writing my different ideas about why teachers need their original holiday and why they don't deserve a strike.

To Whom It May Concern,
It has come to my attention that the teachers need will only have 4 weeks of the holidays and keep working the next and also they might be getting a strike.
I think that the teachers need their original holiday because half of their holiday they might be working and preparing the work for the students the next term. They also need time with their families because as I said they might’ve spent half of their holiday doing school work and hasn’t been able to spend much time with their families. They need the time to do some school work and they also need time to spend with their family.
I think that the teachers don’t deserve a strike because some of the children’s parents might be working that day and they can’t look after their children during the day so they might need to hire a babysitter and it will cost money, or they might have to not go to work that day.
Another reason I think that the teachers don’t deserve a strike is they have prepared school work for the students and if they get a strike the school work might not get finished on time and the work that they prepared will just not get finished.
The solution might be allowing the teachers to have their original holiday time because they deserve it and not let them have a strike because it doesn’t only affect them but it also affects the children’s parents.
The teachers already work for 8:00am to 4:00pm and they deserve their holiday and they don’t need a strike. They have prepared school work for students and that might not get finished on time if they get a strike.
Yours Sincerely,
Antonette

Why is Matariki so important?
WALT: to write an explanation writing about why Matariki is so important.
In Room 8 we have been learning about the constellation of Matariki and the myths behind it. After we learned about how we celebrated Matariki and what the myths are we needed to write an explanation writing about why Matariki is so important.
Reflection- Something I found hard was trying to figure out what to write for my Introduction and conclusion. Something I found easy was putting new ideas to my paragraphs.
Why Matariki is important
Matariki is important to the Māori people because in this time of year it is the Māori new year. It is their chance to be with their family and celebrate.
Family
During this time Māori people celebrate the Māori new year and be with their families they share their gifts eg: Time, Friendship, Love. They also have a meal together as a family. This is also a time for them to remember their loved ones who have passed away and they also tell stories to each other during this time.
The New Year
Secondly this is also a time for them to set new goals for the New year and try to achieve it. They also need to plant food so they have something to eat during winter time. We are also reminded of the happy times from the past year.
Past Year
Lastly this is also the time to reflect about the past year. We get reminded about our loved ones who have passed away. We can write new goals to try and achieve for the new year. This helps us look forward for the new year. We can celebrate the Māori new year with friends and families and write new goals for the upcoming year.
