My New Zealand Olympic Competitor is Tom Walsh

In writing I was learning how to paragraph. I had to stick to one topic in each paragraph. We were leasning about New Zealanders who went to to the Tokyo Olympics. I chose Tom Walsh.

Here is my report.                                                                         

Tom Walsh

Born 1st of March. Place of birth is Timaru. Tom Walsh went to Timaru Boys High School. He played rugby and cricket. His weight is 120kg. His height is 1.85 metres. His parents are Peter Walsh and Karen Walsh. His siblings is Bill Walsh. His Age is 29 years. He got a gold medal in 2019. He is the 6th best shot putter in history.

Harakeke also known as flax

For reading we are learning how to summarise. When you summarise you say the main point in your own words but shorter.

We were reading about Maori healing plants. I learnt that harakeke can be used for sore backs. We summarised what we read and now we are making signs to put in our native garden to show people what the trees are and what they heal.

This is my writing but I did not get it done because I was to busy talking but I should of done it but next time I will.
