Retired from severe injuries.

Born March 14 1989

Inspired by her brother and mum. She was pushed by the power of her brother being better than her at sports.

This morning St.Patrick’s school received  a special guest. Her name was Katie Glynn. She represented New Zealand in the Black Stick hockey team.  Now she is 28 years of age and is retired, due to the severe injuries that she retained in the 2012 olympics.  

She is a very committed and determined person. Katie Glynn has earned 2 medals, 1 silver and 1 bronze from the commonwealth games. She was inspired by the help of her mother and brother.Throughout her career she has achieved to play in 134 games and has scored 77 goals. Her goal in life is to dream big and inspire others to do the same.

WALHT: Write an explanation.

Shoes!

Shoes

Plan:

• Shoes are used for  your feet.
• There are all kinds of shoes such as sports shoes, school, tap dancing shoes, ba
• Shoes and all kind of brands even sandals/jandals.
• Shoes are protective.
• There are all kinds of shoe sizes, colours and brands.

Shoes are used to protect feet. There are numerous numbers of shoes such as trainers, heels, sandals, boots and  etc.

Shoes come in many different colours, sizes and brands for instance, studies show Nike trainers are the most likely brand. There are many different shoes for different reasons like  football boots are used for playing rugby and pointe shoes are used for performing ballet.

Shoes are made out of all kinds of materials some are leather and rubber, while others may contain canvas, synthetic, plastic, textiles outer soles, with cushioning foam bases.

Why do we wear shoes? We wear shoes because they  protect our feet from harm.

We need shoes for our everyday purposes.

Shoes are very important.

I am learning to use the correct structure and tense when writing an explanation.
