For the last few days we have been learning about the 28 Maori battalion soldiers we all read the boxes with the story's in them then we had to write and answer questions about them. We wrote them in our books the other day but we had to write them on a doc with better answers. I finished this doc with questions about the stretcher bearers, how people saved others lives that I've answered and more information about them. Here are some images of my answers and information.
Today for Hurumanu 1 we had a work sheet that we had to do about Woman's Suffrage. We had 6 questions about it that we had to answer.
Here are some pictures of the questions
