Learning Observed
Johnny began to learn about Storybird when the Hickey hapu wrote the story ‘Quack the Cat’ together. Johnny was happy that Ms Wilkes made him his own account.  Some LH6 learners came to work with us and Johnny’s buddy was Natasha.  Natasha helped Johnny login to his Storybird account and helped him use the program so his funny, creative ideas could become a story. It was challenging for him to remember to try to use -at words in his story.  Johnny loved looking through all the pictures so it was good that Natasha helped him stay focused and he created two stories with her.  Natasha did most of the typing but all of the ideas came from Johnny and Nathan.  He has very good ideas and demonstrates a solid understanding that he is writing for an audience and that the purpose is to entertain.  He uses some appropriate and purposeful language features as well- such as metaphor, alliteration and rhyme. Read his amazing stories where they are embedded below, by clicking on the links or by logging into Storybird.
