The Cardboard Cathedral

WALT: Find comparisons and differences between items and provide proof.


This is my groups reading follow up. This presentation is about comparing Christchurch with Auckland and finding out about their differences. We were also challenged to look for similarities and items that have nothing in common between these two cities.

During this activity I have found out that when Christchurch built the replacement building they did this with cheaper materials because if there is an earthquake and your house has been damaged you can just live in the cheap house and you don't need to pay that much. They also built the cathedral using cheaper materials because it will only be used for a short time until they can afford to build the permanent cathedral.

His Own War - Character Description

WALT: find evidence and clues from the text to create a description


This week we had to create 2 Padlets. The first padlet explained what perseverance meant, and how Archibald Baxter showed this while he was in World War 1. The second Padlet explained how Archibald Baxter was resourceful and how this helped him to survive World War 1.

This week we have learnt to make two padlets. On the padlet I have learnt to change backgrounds and write lots of information describing a character’s personality. On the padlet we had to write how resourceful was Archibald Baxter. We have learnt to add exact details and evidence into the padlet from the story that we were reading. We have learnt how to find some evidence and clues about our story.
