A child is playing cards with his grandma. They are the best at cards and have been playing their whole life. But they are both huge cheaters and they both argue about it for the whole game. When granny was on her death bed they decided to have a game of cards. They played it like every other game and players called each other cheaters and played it like it wasn't their last.

S.M.A.R.T Goals

 Text Title: How to create S.M.A.R.T 

Text Type: Tutorial

Text Creator: Mrs Tafau

Text Purpose: What is and how to create a smart goal 

In this text, I will be explaining what and how to create a smart goal, A S.M.A.R.T goal is Specific, Measurable,  Achievable, Realistic, and is there a timeline? These are really helpful when trying to achieve a goal, such as creating good relationships with your family and friend or even trying to achieve a daily routine. 

In health, I have created a smart goal which is very helpful for my daily routine. I will be waking up at 6.00pm and working out from then onto 7.

I feel the S.M.A.R.T goal is very good for people that want to change their routine for anything such as trying harder in sports, School, or even your attendance school.

What Really Happened In The Treaty Of Waitangi

 Film Title: What Really Happened In The Treaty Of Waitangi

Text Type: Film

Text Creator: Peter Burger

Text Purpose: To inform us about what actually happened in the treaty of Waitangi

Date: 12 Feb 2021


The film we recently watched in class was about what really happened during the treaty of Waitangi the film started off with the English trying it find new land and bumped into new Zeland and that when they found the Maoris, The English really wanted the land so they decided to try to make an agreement on it After awhile the Maoris came over to England where the English hoped the make a deal, But the Maoris went budging it. There was a lot of arguing over the treaty of Waitangi, I don't blame the Maoris for being very skeptical about it have they thought they were risking their rights and land about being taken away from them. After ages the chiefs finally agreed to sign the treaty, They also got blankets and tobacco with the trade which some of the English were not keen on.
