Myrtle the turtle

WALT: retell the story

One morning there was a little girl named Emma she was in a class that had a turtle in it. The turtles name is Myrtle.

The class took him for daily walks. Emma’s class loved to talk to Myrtle they loved him very much. One day after they took him for his daily walk he was cold so when they put him in his aquarium he crawled slowly towards the heater in his aquarium.

When Myrtle the turtle was on the heater Emma decided to go see her. When Emma got there she saw Myrtle very very still and not moving. She called for the teacher and said “ Miss Terry come quick” . Miss terry came and saw that Myrtle wasn’t moving. After a while they found he was dead. Emma and the class was very sad. They buried her Then the next day Emma saw her head pop out. They called the vet. The vet said he can live with three legs. Everyone was happy to have her back.

                                        WALT: write a response to the talk by Evan

                                                               Money Wise

On Wednesday Evan came to our school he was talking about spending, earning and saving money.Evan is from the ASB bank. He was helpful because he helped us in how to earn our money how to have a budget well spending it and also how to save our money. I think that he should come back because he was funny well teaching us about how to use our money carefully. He was very helpful because normally I spend whatever I get but now i have thought about saving half and spending the other half. I think that he made most of room 11 & 12 listen because he was also funny and so it made us listen more to what he was saying. He gave us a lot of advice , he told us how he use to spend his money as a teenager and helped me understand how to use my money.Lastly I appreciate him coming because he helped us a lot , he gave us advice and told us how to use our money he also told us the legal ages of getting a debit card and bank cards.
