• Selects and reads texts for enjoyment and personal fulfilment.
• Constructs texts that show an awareness of purpose and audience through deliberate choice of content, language, and text form.

                                                                               PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI 

• I will give the students 2 minutes to talk to each other about what they know about Tamaki Makaurau.

• They will then share back as a class so that I can write on the whiteboard a brainstorm of what they already know about Tamaki Makaurau.

• Then they will create a title page for "Discover Tamaki Makaurau."

• The students will sit down on the mat when they first come into the library.
• Then they will listen as Sibylle will tell them about the expectations and rules they need to follow in the library.
• Afterwards, the students will choose books to read and sit down quietly to read the books which they will issue afterwards.

                                                                                                          Friday

• I will show the students a model of a letter of introduction and the structure of a letter of introduction.
• The students will then write a draft of the letter of introduction in their English books.
• If they have finished writing the draft of their letter they can publish their letter of introduction.
