This week in writing, we learnt about onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is a word that mimics the sound of the object or action it refers to. When you pronounce a word, it will mimic its sound. For example; "splat" went the drink onto the ground, there goes the alarm again "buzz". Click here for more examples of words.

In class with Ms Tito, we have been learning how to make different sentences saying how, where and when. Our teacher said that we get something if we do one in Maori. Once I heard that, I  thought I can just do three of them Maori. If you have the time, you can guess what the three Maori words are. The pictures are clues so it will probably be easy.
