LI: To understand the structure and language features in an explanation
How did Goldie Locks upset the Bears family?
To upset someone is to make someone unhappy, disappointed, or in a state of worry. In the story of the Goldilocks and the Three Bears she made disappointing decisions. Above all, have you ever made someone in a state of stress?
In the fairytale of the Goldilocks and the Three Bear. Goldie Locks makes some disappointing bold moves with this in mind. Goldilocks’ curiosity took over and she went into the house of the three Bears. Goldilocks sat on a chair which was just right then suddenly it collapsed, the smell of the porridge made her hungry so she ate all of the porridge. After that porridge she felt tired so she found the three Bears beds but she slept on the bed that was just right. However when she was having a cosy nap the three Bears walked into their house, looking devastated at the shocking mess in the house.
If someone came into my house I would be shocked and terrified, if someone broke my favourite chair I would be angry, if someone ate my food, I would be furious and if someone was sleeping in my bed I would be aggravated.
To help us understand how to write an explanation we looked at the purpose, the structure (what it looks like) and the language features. An explanation tells us how or why something is the way it is. To help us understand this we learnt about cause and effect. Cause and effect is an action and a reaction. We used the story of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears to help us understand this. Here is our explanation that describes how Goldilocks upset the Bear family.
Treaty of Waitangi
LI: To explore the world in 1840 and the art of the Treaty
This week we learned what they would have been like in 1840. Did you know that the Treaty of Waitangi would have been cancelled because of William Hobson being sick. After this we identified some of the key people and their role in the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi. I found it interesting that there was still slavery in America in 1840, it still carried on for another 25 years. We then gathered all our information to help us read the event of the Treaty of Waitangi. Then we looked at the picture seeing what could be happening at that time of the event.
However the image above was an impression of Marcus King , the painter of the picture. It was nearly a hundred years of his impression but it was only 98 years of the impression.
