Being a Good Daughter

What is like to be a good daughter? In order to be a good daughter it is important to be very helpful to your elders, being responsible, and having a strong relationship with your parents.

What is like to be a good daughter? To be a good daughter it is important to be very helpful to your elders, being responsible, and having a strong relationship with your parents.

To be a good daughter you need to respect your parents and also you need to help them. Make sure that you do all your chores without your parents having to remind you. Beyond that, take on extra responsibilities, as well. For example, clean not only your room but the common areas like the living room and dining room.

Being a good daughter is understanding your parents about their relationships by giving your parents some time out. You could take care of your siblings when your parents are busy. This will give them more time to relax. When your parents are giving you advice or just sharing information with you, take heed and listen to what they have to say.

Your parents are some of the most important people in your life, and being a good daughter to them is likely a goal of yours. Maybe you already have a strong relationship with your parents but are looking to improve it. For example, perhaps you haven’t been all that good lately and want to show your parents a different side of you. Whatever the case, you can be a good daughter by being responsible, kind, and open with your parents.

So now that you’ve read my story are you being a good daughter. Your parents have given you a lot of experiences that you haven’t had yet, so respect their knowledge. Use their advice in your life so you can avoid mistakes they made and take responsibility as well, what can you change to be a good daughter.

What is means to be a good role model

What is means to be a good role model

To be a good role model you need to be someone who is hard-working, confident. When you want to be a good role model you need to respect other people and encourage them to work harder and tell them that they can do it and never give up but it’s best to be positive all the time, being a role model you have to be confident and face the challenges in life. For example, when you see someone that not confident to do something just go to them and tell them that everyone is different and encourages them to make them feel confident and happy.

A role model is a person you admire and would like to emulate. Usually, you want to be like this person because you like the way the person lives his or her life. A role model does not have to be a famous person or a superhero. It could be a relative or friend who has accomplished things you wish to accomplish. Your role model might be your grandmother, your neighbour, your teacher, or someone else you know.

Having role models in our life is very important, and having good role models is more important, as they influence what we do and how we turn out eventually. 

A good role models are the types of people who encourage, motivate and respect other people. Good role models encourage others to never ever give up, they motivate people to strive and succeed, respect their peers and treat others the way they want to be treated. For example one of my role models is my grandmother. My grandmother has always encouraged and motivated me throughout my life at school. My grandmother has always encouraged me and told me that I should never give up the things I do and achieve.

step sisters and there a Cinderella who always have to clean and the one who takes care

of everything. Cinderella want to go to the bow dance but the 4 step sisters was so mean

to her they say that she can not dance but when Cinderella ghost mother came Cinderella

ghost mother turn the 4 step sisters in to a frogs. It’s about how we all are going to

express our emotions and act a bit moody this term. My favourite part about the immersion

assembly was when Mr.Somerville came driving down the hall on a scooter, It was really

funny. it’s to keep going in my learning, so whenever I lose control of working and get

distracted, I will try to finish it off with the time I have left.

Butter Chicken - Tech Tamaki

Today for tech we are cooking, this will be our second to last cooking session with Mrs. Tuipulotu so I am trying to make the most of these last two sessions. As always I was partnered with Kalita. I will leave her blog address below so you can visit her amazing content. We made together delicious butter chicken. These are the instructions below feel free to customise it to your desire.

Ingredients

- Onion

- Chicken

- Butter Chicken Sauce

- Spices

- Cream

The first thing we did was cut the onion, bring your pan to a boil and start cooking your onions. Mrs. Tuipulotu made our cream sauce so all we did was take our bowls to her. She mixed Chicken Sauce, Spices and Cream to the mixture. Then we took our bowls and brought them our pan. We then stirred it. Miss Tuipulotu already made the rice before so we were lucky After that we put it on the plate and we are finally finished.

School Hours Persuasive

Do you believe our school should be long enough? 

Persuasive writing helps students formulate specific reasons for their opinions, and provides an
opportunity to research facts related to their opinions.I believe school should be longing, for
example some students need more time to learn.Some students like coming to school because
they want more education. Education is very important as this because education gives people
the knowledge and skills they require. for them to learn how to speak and to write.The first
reason why we should go to school is because school help us, for example, if the teacher asks
students what career they would like to pursue when they grow older. And also why we go to
school is because school helps develop networking and social skills. School is very important
because it gives students the building blocks necessary to do many things. Critically analyse
read, perform mathematical functions, write. Without These building blocks students would not
understand some of the things necessary in everyday life.Some students just stay home and not
doing any learning if students don't want to go to school they don’t understand anything and if
they want to be a doctor or a police they can’t because they don’t know what to write and how
to read, so that why students should go to school. School is very important for example if
students come to school they get to see a lot of interesting stuff and learn new skills. Why do
students need homework? Homework helps to reinforce learning and develop good study
Homework allows parents to be involved with their child's learning.
