Hi for the last 5 weeks in reading me and my group have been reading the boy in the striped pyjamas for literacy after we read the book we had to make a jack door about the information I enjoyed making this as I have already watched the movie last year so I know what happens What I found challenging was making the writing perfect (the picture is quite blurry but it was taken off a Chromebook so that's the best quality I could get it)

Dixon house
Dixon House
On Tuesday Taiao went to Dixon house to read to the residents for international read a book day and it was run by tai poutini polytechnic we first hopped on the bus at 12:55 to the rest home them we walked up the road and walked inside we each brought a book to read to them. When we walked inside they were all waiting in the lounge we started to wander around to read/ talk to each of them I spotted my great nana and great-grandpa first I went over and started to talk to them after a while I made my way around and talked to everyone I knew a couple people there already.
everyone was really respectful and really kind I read 2 books the elephant man and escaping the holocaust. I read 4 chapters of my book to one woman I felt really bad because I had never read escaping the holocaust and didn't know how grusium it was she seemed to be enjoying it! Though I know when some of my friends were reading they made some of the residents cry of happiness. I've been inside Dixon house quite a lot and used to go in there with one of my mum's friends that work there. It was really cool to get to know some of the residents and how kind they were one lady came up to me and my friends and was talking about how beautiful we were and that she hopes we get far in life which was so sweet and kind and much appreciated.
Soon after we got some kai, we had some really yummy food and each got chocolate and 2 other snacks. It was so good!!
I learnt a lot from it I learnt that the people there are so nice I learnt about some of their lives and what they liked to do as kids and what their favourite book is and I also learnt that kindness goes a long way like how one of the residents came up to me and my friend and said we looked beautiful and that she hoped we would go far in life. I also learnt small things like what they got for breakfast, lunch and dinner there.
I enjoyed a lot of things there but one main thing was getting to know them and seeing the joy on their faces when we read to them. They were all so sweet I also enjoyed the food there.
It made me feel really good because it was so cool getting to read to them and they all loved it and were really happy when we were talking to them which was super cool.
