Ifaketext: Tiare and June


Today we used a website called ifaketext.com that I had done with my partner, June. We used this site to fake text each other about our topic "Should we change the NZ flag?" June was asking me some questions and I was answering them, to show my point if view. We both decided that our answer is no.

Tiare and Saruja - ifaketext.com

 
Today we learnt how to use ifaketext.com, because for us that was a new website. To work on this website we need to get a partner, so we can talk to each other about our learning.  I really like how it works like a mobile phone, because it show all the things that we type. I think this is a cool website for kids, so they can learn some thing new.  We really enjoyed by using this website.

Letter to Editor: Saruja, Tim and TIare


Google Doc

Dear Editor of Maori Battalion.         23/08/1915                     
                                                                                                              
Today we would like to ask you some question about WW1.
I hope you know what we are going to say in this letter.
We red your story and it says that brown people are not allowed to fight in WW1. We thought because they are not good  at fighting or they won’t focus, so our  question is
Why wouldn’t you let the brown people fight in WW1?
Is there a reason why white people won’t let brown people take part in the war?
Why don’t you want all kinds of people participating in war?
We think it is not fair for native people like brown people to be digging out trenches while other soldiers fight for their country. We think all people should have the right to fight for their country.
Waikato people and the Taranaki people had the right to disagree of taking part in the war.
We think that because the government took away their land, so we think it is fair to disagree.
We feel like  brown people altogether that should’ve been involved in the war. We hope you agree with our opinions
                                      
                                      Your Sincerely,Saruja, Tim and Tiare
         




Today Tim, Tiare and I, did a letter to the editor. We have stated our opinions and we hopefully didn't do it in a negative way, we just felt like stating our opinions and why brown people had to dig our trenches instead of fighting for their country or our country. Brown people are also known as native people.

Maori Numbers


Here is my Maori Numbers. It tells you about numbers but maori numbers I will give you an example of what maori numbers they showed me to answer: Tekau + Rua = Tekau ma Rua. The part I found challenging was answering the answers that was most trickiest because they were maori numbers that you had to answer.
