  1. How to use a  trap 
  2. How long to what for the white bait to came  to growe?
  3. How do plats  grow in water when it only in water ! 
We should keep the water clean so it is healthy  and do not cut the trees down to the ground so the dirt doesn’t roll down into the water so that is why we  shouldn’t cut the trees down to the ground stop cutting the trees down so stop cutting the trees  down. We need the water clean

How to use a trap. The fish swim in the trap and it can’t get out of the trap because it doesn’t know what way to go to get out of the trap so it just gives up 

 If  we find the bad things we kill them all

Lincoln, me, reo, and mia are our team

My Holiday

WALT we are learning to write, edit and recraft our writing.

To write my story I made a plan at the top of my page. Then I wrote my story underneath. The green writing shows the editing I have done and the red parts show what Mr Masters helped me with.




My published copy:
I went fishing with Papa, Donte and Uncle LJ. We woke up at 6.00am then we went on the ocean on Papa’s boat. When i first cast my line in the water, I caught a fish but when I got it on the side of Papa’s boat the fish got off the line I tried to get the tail of the fish but it was too fast and too slippery. Uncle L.J put on my bait because the first fish that i caught ate my bait. Then I cast my line again. When you see light blue colour coming out of the water that means you caught a fish. It is orange and shiny when it is out of the water. It was a snapper! We caught 16 snappers and 5 kahawai. One of them whipped me with its tail. If it is a snapper, it sometimes stops in the fight. I got a little one and it swallowed my hook so we had to keep the little fish. When we were going back to shore I got splashed by water and my brother laughed at me.

Reflection - I liked it when I finally got to take off the red and green.
Have you been fishing before?
