  • He maurea kai whiria!

    Ignore small matters and direct effort toward important projects


    Kia ora. I was really impressed with the one-pagers I saw last week.  There are some great examples of how you can combine text and visuals to create notes about your texts.  By now, you should have completed your one-pager so that you can use the information it contains this week as you draft and write your paragraphs.  Please don't be like the guy above.  (so stressed he can't even take the time to check his spelling of seconds!) Plan your time wisely - we have three sessions and three paragraphs.  A minimum of one paragraph drafted each session will put you on track to have your assessment task completed on time.  Drafted, proofread, edited and published (i.e. final copy typed into your document) will mean you get to be stress free next weekend.

    Success Criteria:

        • Use writing framework to structure writing
        • give clear examples 
        • link paragraph to the question prompt
        • proofread for clarity and accuracy
        • manage time wisely

    Activities:

    1. Draft paragraph(s)
    2. Proofread and edit paragraph(s)
    3. Publish paragraph(s)
    4. Complete/re-check one-pager
