Trade and Enterprise Dictogloss

Trade and Enterprise

Trade is when you swap something for something else. You could swap a house for money and you buy it.

Enterprise is when you are in a business. I am in the music group and making a guitar and drum to sell.

We Sell Feijoas

We read a story called We Sell Feijoas. We have been learning about compound words. Here are some compound words from my story.

If I had million dollars

If I had million dollars I would feel excited. I would go to McDonalds, EB Games and Lilliputt with my family.

At McDonalds I will get ice-cream. I will get a Kit Kat McFlurry, M&Ms Minis McFlurry, Banana Choc Mcflurry and soft serve with a flake. Me and my brothers we will eat it all.

When I go to EB Games I will have some fun buying a PS4, 2 controllers, headphones, microphone and Rugby League Live 3.  I would buy it because I like rugby. I would be able to play and talk to my friends with the headphones.

Then I will go to Lilliputt with my family. I haven’t played mini golf before so I don’t know who would win. I think my uncle probably would because he likes golf.

I would feel really good because I would have fun and eat yummy ice cream.

I think it is a good way to spend the money because I would only spend some of it and save the rest for things my family need.

Make a Hungry Hen

We read about how to create a hungry hen. My partner Ngarima and I followed instructions to make our hungry hen. This is a video of our hen eating wheat.

Tinkering, Tools and Toys

Today Pt England had an assembly.  They told us about tinkering, tools and toys. We are going to make a game.

My favourite part was eating the jam piklet. Yum !

It was a great way to start school.

Whitebait

I have been reading a story about whitebait. I learnt that whitebait are young fish that you make into fritters. My uncle has eaten them but I won't like them. Here is a picture of the whitebait growing up.
