Our market day recount

Walt: Write an interesting and detailed recount


On the market day, so many people were excited and happy. We take each turn and 2 people go to buy
and 2 people stay at the shop. People bought a lot of food from kitchen and before the market
day, we had an auction and if we want to use our pt and pieces at the auction we can use or we can save  
for the market.  


We are having our market day which was an awesome way to use the money we had been saving. Most people were wasting all their pt and pieces, but some people hadn't. Now we know how to use the money. After the bell we go into our trade and enterprise group and people are working
hard.  


Before the market, we were getting ready and making posters. We set up our tables and we hung up our bunting. We stick our posters in front of the tables. We set up our tables next to miss lavakula class. We put
on the tables a sheet and we put our candles on the tables. We were now ready.


Our group are selling skull candles and orange candles and we sold all the candles we had made
and  we got a lot of pt and pieces. When we are selling visitors are come to our shop and bought
our candles. Our business group is homeware.   


I can’t buy a lot of things because I was selling first and then when I go to buy there nothing  else to buy
it’s all sold out and I bought loom band bracelet and maths book cover and some food.  


I thought about the market day, It’s was good and everybody was happy and teachers are happy.

Our trade fair

Walt: use language that paints a picture in the minds of our reader.
Trade and enterprise is about our business groups. Our goal is to take as many orders we can to make money for our product.  We have different business groups with different product that we are selling. If people walk by our mission is to make them feel like they need this product. Trade and enterprise is also known as our topic for term three.
Years 5 and 6 are learning about trade and enterprise and how to use money. The teachers are give us money, for example Mr g\Goodwin give me 1 pt and 50 pieces 1 pt like $1.00 and 50 pieces like 50 cents and we have our own internet bank then after school or at lunch time we can bank our pt and pieces and we got
bank teller. The teacher don’t always give us cash, they put it in our bank.


There are many business group there are home ware, toys, music, custom stationery, kitchen and jewellery. I'm in home ware,  in our group there are 5 people in our group and we are making skull candles and orange candles.
The big skull candles is 1 pt and the small skull candles is 50 pieces and the orange candle is 50 pieces and
if you buy the big skull candles you get buy 1 get 1 free.


when we are at the trade fair we split up 3 people stay and wait for people to order 1 of us go to order and buy
some food,loom headphone or other thing. The people go and order, they have 15 minutes to buy or order. When
it’s 15 minutes and we switch again. When we got our product the teacher take out from our internet bank.


I wonder what it’s gonna like on market day and miss Lavakula said in our business group if we make the
most order Miss Lavakula will give us price. I can’t wait to market day.
The week we are learning about our trade fair and pt and pieces. Pt and pieces are money, pt is dollar and pieces are the cents. At week 8 we are selling our product before week 8 the people 
order our product and then miss lavakula take out the pt and pieces in the people order our 
product but until we give the our product to them.
