Auckland Museum

When we arrived at the Auckland Museum we settled down in the kai room. In the kai room we ate our morning tea. At school we were put into teams, I was with Jonson, Brandon, Hiwarau, Taniela, Leka, Paula and our teacher was Mrs Lagitupu.

The first thing we look at was the maori gallery. We saw harakeke and carvings. After the maori gallery we to the pacific gallery. There were traditional costumes and tapo in Tonga.  Niuean has similar things to maori.

After looking at the Auckland Museum we went outside to the domain. Once we got outside we had to take several photos. Some of the thing we took photos of were scalpchers, flowers and the waterfall.

In conclusion the Auckland Museum is home to valuable objects. It is where you learn about art and the history of our country.

How does a musical instrument create sound?

1. Intro:

I am writing about how a guitar  instrument create sound.

2. Part of a guitar: A guitar is a instrument that has strings, notes, tone

and a sound hole and tuning keys.

3. How is sound created from a guitar? When you strum a guitar the sound goes into the hole and it bounces of the wood and come out of  hole and come out louder.

4. How to play a guitar: When you strum the guitar the strings vibrate.

5. Conclusion: I learn about guitar. I learn how to hold the guitar and how it vibrate and makes sound.

Thank you letter

Dear Parent

Thank you for coming down to  the school picnic with class 2. If you hadn’t come, Class 2 would not have gone to the picnic. It is important to have parents at the picnic to keep an eye on the kids because we can get into mischief. My favorite part of the day was playing with my friends.

Kind Regards
