Today we have to create a letter to our family and answer some questions. We have to add detail and what we thought it would be like there. We have to pretend that we are a boy in the war heading to fight with the British Empire. Here is my letter of what I would write to my family if I was in the war and the answers.
Letter:
Dear Family,
Sorry I haven't been sending you letters or replaying to you. I know its been more then 3 months since I sent you a letter. Its been a long 3 months since then but there's been lots of stuff going on right now Im sorry. I don't have much time left so i'm just going to tell you only a bit of stuff that's happened this 3 months. The trenches smell really bad you wont even last a day in and there fill with rats and flies. There has been lots of stuff that went wrong but there was a bit one. We landed at a cliff by the beach side not knowing where we were and then all the suddenly there were screams going from the cliff. Me and my friends have been on the feld all month with out food only water. Could you please send us some food for a month. There's been lots of attacks and lucky I haven't go hurt.
Love _____
Answer:
1. Because they had to and some of them wanted to. Most off the people volunteered to go.
2. In Gallipoli they fighted there for eight months. In Passchendaele they fighted there for three months.
3. 16,000 New Zealanders died and 41,000 were wounded.
4. The out come was that when we were fighting Gallipoli was that we snuck out at night and also set up traps to think that we were still there.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 7 and in 2021 I will be a year 8. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Women In The War
Today we started doing stuff about the war. We had to make a DLO about women in the war. We have to learn about the women in the war so we can tell our kids if we have them about the war. The DLO had questions and answers. Here is the DLO.

World War 1
For the past week we had to create a DLO about the WW1. The DLO had the questions in it and the answers in it. It was cool to learn about the war because my great great Granddad was in world war ll. Here is the DLO.
