My Letter, To My Mother!

My Letter, To My Mother!

At School For PBL our driving question is How can NZ's past influence our future. So we have been going around and doing rotations about the olden days. Today I'm Going to be sharing with you my favourite station, which was early settlers. In this rotation we had to write a letter to a loved one acting as if we have gone on a ship somewhere without them.
Here is my example of a letter.

To my dearest mother,

It has been a long and bumpy 5 weeks across the sea, im hungry and tired,
and the rain is bucketing onto the ship like crazy. The captain says 6 ships
have already sunk and I am worried our ship isn't going to make it. And now
every 5 minutes I find myself sticking my head out the window and vomiting.
Now I have to clean up my vomit and everyone else vomit! There aren't
many people my age here so I am feeling a bit alone. But luckily I have met
a kind hearted maid named senna who is helping me get over my home
sickness. I hope you are doing well, I miss you so terribly much and I can't wait to see you.

From your Seasick daughter Megan.

Do you enjoy writing?

PBL Showcase!

PBL Showcase!

Hello and welcome back to Megan's blog, and today im going to be talking to you about my PBL this term. For PBL our driving question this term was how can innovation improve our lives. We had to get into groups in my group was Myself, Eilish, Beth, Jimi and Sophie. We had a few things we wanted to make like car tracker or a device holder. In the end we chose to make a device holder because it would  be that much easier to make and we found it more interesting. I missed 1 week of work as I went to Australia, but I still got to contribute in this PBL. Last night on the 25th of September we had our PBL showcase, where parents could come and see what we had been learning for our PBL throughout the term. about 10 parents came and a few kids and 3 teachers came and looked at our PBL. This terns PBL was so much fun to contribute in.
