REFLECT / WHAIWHAKAARO learning intentions:

• We are REFLECTING on the issues that were barriers to producing our book reviews and challenging ourselves to improve our writing as we begin to write speeches.
• We are REFLECTING on the way our book reviews have been assessed and judging the impact of our book reviews on others by the amount of students who take up our recommendations.
