T2 Reading Learning story

I have been finding information about N.Z's Involvement in war and why N.Z has been involved in wars. 

I was researching, by going on the NZ History site. I read each paragraph and then I talked about the information with my group. We had to find the key information that answered our wondering questions. First we made notes and then we explained the information to the class. We had to write about the information in our own words. 

We summarise the key information and we took notes about the Vietnam war  we talked about who was involved in the war and when did it happen and where did it take place. 

We got all of our informations from our school journal  and some books from the  library. Last week we were researching we were skimming and scamming in N.Z history. 

what found out about the Vietnam war that it   started at 1954 and 3000 soldiers fought for Vietnam but we were along side with U.S.A. and The war was against south Vietnam and North Vietnam.
American supported south Vietnam because they were against North Vietnam communist government.My N.Z at war information . My next steps are to summarise the key informations.

T2 writing learning stories

In my writing I have been learning to pretend that I was a soldier that was balloted to go to the war. I had to describe what happened and how my character was feeling. It felt like that I was acting in the my conscription story . 
In my conscription writing I have been using similes,metaphor,and descriptive words to paint a picture in my readers head so they can see my story like a movie in their heads. 

For example: "fire in the hole!!! Every soldier  goes down and covers there ears. Boom! 

My purpose of my conscription is to make it interesting and entertaining so I hook the reader in.  
our writing my conscription writing . My conscription writing is a special writing for those who passed the in the war and those who fought for our country . My Next steps a to include an introduction,fact about the 5ws and a conclusion.
