Activity 1:It's All in the family
Imagine that you were a child in the 1800s and you had nine siblings.
On your blog, please tell us how you would feel. Would you enjoy being a member of such a large family? Why or why not?
I would enjoy being in a big family because if I am getting bullied at school they will protect me.

Hey again Laki, thanks for completing all three activities from day three week one. Great effort!
ReplyDeleteI like the reason you have given for why you would like having a big family. Could you please give a few more reasons? What might not be so good about belonging to a big family?
I enjoyed reading your Pepeha too, great job.
What is your favourite line in your Pepeha and what does it translate to?
The bonus activity was really interesting to learn about your family and their different hobbies. Your brother sounds like my brother! Sounds like everyone in your family likes to play games!
Thanks, blog soon.

Hey Laki, Good work on blogging this and I guess Peli is exactly like Wella. Anyways, Happy new Year and Merry Christmas. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Laki,
ReplyDeleteyou have done great on your blog posting. I think playing games and spending time with family is fair enough for your cousin to say that because truly family is supposed to come first. Any ways your work is outstanding and as Annie says Maea and wella and also peli are the same. any ways.can't wait to see more of your outstanding work.
Merry Christmas happy new year and all the best Lily:)
