NZ Author Study

Hi all,
The children will be doing a NZ author study for reading while Miss Peters is teaching.
Here is a link for you at home to use with your child to help them choose a NZ author.
This site is fantastic as you find the author you want - click on their name and information about them comes up.

By week 6 (next week) Thursday - they need to have chosen a NZ author.

We have done a little bit of discussion around this in our library session on Monday.
Some children have already chosen theirs. Eg:
Margaret Mahy, Joy Cowley, Ben Brown, Stu Duval, Wanda Cowley to name a few.

Also - I love this Sam T went home last night and googled his fab author Stu Duval - and Sam came into school buzzing with information about Stu. Stu's an amazing artist as well. You might recognise his cartoon drawing books.
