WALT work as a group to make better presiontastions. We read a book called TOKU KUIA. I made this using the Maori dictionary and the book.

NAME OF BOOK: Return to deltora

AUTHOR: Emily Rodda

HOW MANY PAGES I HAVE READ TODAY: 5 pages

A brief synopsis of what I read

The main characters of the book are Barda, Lief and Jasmine. The Belt is what they are looking for  but the hardest part of the journey is yet to come. They need to find the heir of Adin, the true heir to Deltora's throne. Lief's father tells him that they would find the heir with the Belt, as it will show the way to where you need to go, but the Belt wouldn’t show them the way and will give no sign of recognition of the heir. The seven tribe members are Lief of Del for the topaz, Manus of the Ralad people for the ruby, Steven of the Plains people for the opal, Fardeep of the Mere for the lapis lazuli, Gla-Thon of the Dread Gnomes for the emerald, Zeean of Tora for the amethyst, and Glock of the Jalis for the diamond. They also know that they need to recruit a member of each of the seven tribes as well.

In addition to this, they now need to awaken the Belt's hidden powers and find the heir to the throne of Deltora.
