Last week in Whanau Time, Mrs O Sullivan (the principal) talked to the whole school about self respect. Self respect is important, it means that you can take care of your learning tools and your uniform, being confident, taking pride and being proud of any achievements or awards you get. After Whanau time, Mrs O told us to go back to class and make some sort of presentation that shows self respect. This meant we had to talk more about it as a class.
In Totara 3 we made a video about self respect. We were put into small groups and we weren't allowed to make any sounds! We did topics like labeling our uniform, writing neatly and taking care of our chrome books and school books, standing tall when receiving a reward, having neat and tidy hair and uniform and standing up to bullies.

Writing An Exposition/Argument
This week in Totara 3 we have started learning about how to write a good exposition/argument. There are three main parts of a argument/exposition-the introduction, reasons/arguments and the conclusion. This is called the scaffold. The scaffold is basically like the bare bones of the writing. In the second part of the writing (reasons/arguments) it is good to include cause and effect. Cause and effect is a connection between an action and what it leads to. We have made a google drawing that has words on cause and effect. Here is my google drawing:
