this week in inquiry I have been learing about matariki. The task was to choose to stars that had there own tasks for example if you choose puhutakuwa then the task was that you had to right about your lost ones.

First I choose my 2 that I wood be righting about. They were Tupu a nuku and Hiwa i te rangi.

Next I started righting about Hiwa i te rangi the task was to right a vision baord/goal baord.

After that I wrote about Tupu a nuku and her task was to right what foods are good to grow in summer, autumn, winter and spring.

Finally I edited and added the pictures. (fortnite, becausee it is my favourite game)

I found this task interesting because I got to choose two stars and right about them.

I improved on is my research.

This week I have been learning about making inferences and looking for clues. Inferences are when it doesn’t say it in the text but you know it means it, for example: She likes the colour of the sky on a rainy day so she wears it everyday. You would make the inference that she likes to wear blue.

First I wrote some notes down about the 4 suspects. They all seemed like they did it so it took me a while to find out who did stole it.

Then once I found out who stole the taonga I put it into my investigation DLO.

After that I gave reasons and evidence that suspect 4/ Ariana Kowhia is the one that stole the taonga.

I found this task fun because I got to give my own reasons and make inferences for why I suspected Ariana.

I need to work on my inferencing.

I improved sumarizing my research.
