Dear peer, thank you for letting us use your fantastic maze it was hard thats what I know about your maze but beside that I enjoyed it and wouldn`t mind doing it again in the future for some reason like school holiday or anther school trip and i`d like to see you try it out for any reason, it would be funny watching you getting lost in the maze. That would be easy for you I suspect because its your job and you have to go in if any one gets lost in that maze and you will be going in out so that will be getting on your nerve so thats why you have to know the way in out of the maze.

yours sincerely Sam Fitzpatrick. **Room 30** **Tauranga Intermediate**

**Catherine Fitzpatrick** **19 Keenan RD** **Pyes Pa** Monday, 28 March 2011 Dear Catherine I thank you for all the things you have done for us in the Amazing race on day 3 of our race like letting us tell you what to do and taking us to the places we needed to go on our race, if you didn`t enroll in this job we would have not competed in this event and that would be disappointing for our team and all of our excitement will be made for nothing because we didn`t have enough parents to help with transport on the day. I liked it when you didn`t fuss when we decided to stay for our fish and chips instead of going over to the other fish and chips shop and they will cook it for us and when you helped us eat them up so we didn`t come last in the big race at the finial stretch when we had to race to school and I thank for taking me home after school when we were tired and you were too so you let us do our thing.

Your sincerely Sam Fitzpatrick

 __**AMAZING RACE REFLECTION**__

__**WALT:reflect on our experience of the Amazing Race.**__

__**DAY one-Te puna-Katikati-Wahi-Karangahake Gorge**__

On day one I think we had good team because we worked as a team but the down part is that we came last out of the quarry and the teacher thought every one had finished so she started packing up. I think that it was nice that she told us were one of them were. but that was my favorite thing on that day so my team came back from last to 19th.

__**DAY two-Papamoa--Te Puke-Rotorua**__ on day two I did not like it when one of our team players did not tern up on that day so that made it harder for team to decide who to do some of the activities for or team. On that day I liked it when we worked as a team on the team advents because we did our best when we came across a problem. I think over all we done great because we came around about 20th and that was ok for me.but the disappointment was that we got lost at the end of the race we should have got seventh place in th e end but we got lost at the end because we got lost in the maze.

__**DAY three-Mount Maunganui-Tauranga**__

Today was a great day because we got every one in team there so that was better because we had more people to do the activates so that made easier. The good part of the day was that we knew were we had to go, it was all so easy because it was all in local places. The over all score we got that day 27 and that was a ok score for our team. But the down part was that we lost time when we were looking for the clue on the Tauranga marina boat dock and look for these boat pictures on the pole because there weren’t any more left.

**Excellent reflection Sam. Great honesty. I am glad you had a such an awesome time on the A****mazing Race. Nice voice recording too! Please remember to check your work for mistakes before you upload onto your wiki, there are a lot of spelling and punctuation mistakes here.** **Miss Crone :)**

L.I. We are learning to use detailed language and a writing style that is appropriate and directed to audience to produce a brochure advertising a place we visited on the Amazing RaceS.C. We canuse formal language (no slang)use persuasive language/emotive language e.g. you would love ...use objective and/or powerful language e.g. certainly, must, absolutely



Great work sam! But you need more information and to fill the empty spaces. The images are great and make it look like a lot of of fun. The colours really stand out. Make sure you use the right word(their not there).Reuben :)

Kiwis are the best because we have lots of nice people we have lots of fish like cat fish, kahwai, snapper,
