Authors Reponse


I am learning to identify and describe what the author wanted me to feel, think about or see.

Success Criteria.
I will know I have been successful when:

  • I can identify what I think the author’s purpose might be
  • I can identify the big idea or message/s in the story through character actions or events
  • I can describe the thoughts, feelings and actions in the story and link it to author purpose
  • I can find evidence in the text to support my thinking, feelings and observations
  • I can identify how the illustrations help to get the author’s message across

I found this tricky because you had to tell the authors purpose
My next step for me is to put the book next to me when I write about it and to look at the success criteria.

Te Tuhi Showcase



I got a lot better at drawing the shape of the head and body 
and to paint in the line and not out.
