ANZAC DAY

We read Simpson and the donkey and learned about how Kiwi's helped those in World War One by making ANZAC biscuits to send overseas.


We made biscuits and pretended we were sending them to Jack Simpson and we wrote letters to him explaining what we had done, including FEELING words to make our letters interesting.


We then did some ICT magic - putting ourselves into a field of poppies.  Here are some examples - for more, visit the office at Reremoana School.

Dear Jack
When I smelled the ANZAC cookies, I really wanted to eat them.  They smelled like chocolate.  
It’s sad that I can’t see you.  But you are helping our country.  It makes me feel happy because you are helping my people.

When I made the ANZAC cookies I put love in too. 
Hope you enjoy it.

Love Hayley 



Dear Jack
Today we have made ANZAC biscuits.  When Room 5 made them some of the class wanted to lick their hands.  I hope you're okay in the war saving people.

It was pretty fun making them.  I hope they taste good.

Maybe I can send a cookie to you.  Was the cookie good?  
What did it taste like.
