Unorganized writing

Another way to be a good daughter is to talk nicely to your parents. By telling them how much you appreciate them, and answering back in a positive manner you are showing your parents how much they mean to you.  When your parents ask you to do something it is important that you listen and respond in a timely and respectful manner. For example, when mum asks you to put away the laundry, you should immediately respond by saying, “yes mum” as you stand up and put the laundry away without a scowl on your face.



Another way to show that you are a good daughter is by your actions.  By being helpful around the house you are showing your parents that you respect them. For example, when you keep your bed made and your room clean you are showing that you respect your living space. This also comes into play when you complete your chores without being asked. So, when you wake up in the morning or get home from school, immediately vacuum the house, put away the dishes and take out the rubbish. 



It is very important to always show kindness towards your parents. Although this can be difficult at times, it is important to show kindness to your parents because it shows that you respect them. For example, when you really want to go somewhere with your friends and your parents tell you that you have to stay home and look after your little siblings, it is important to remember that your parents have your best interests in mind.


Anyone has the ability to be a good daughter. By showing kindness, listening to your parents, and being helpful you are showing your parents that you love and respect them. What else can you do in your life to be a good daughter?

Homework: Family Hero

 



My Grandfather is a hero to me, because he tried his best to bring my Grandma, My Mother, and my Mother's Siblings to New Zealand. 

My Grandfather worked on a boat as a fisherman.  (there are different types of fisherman.  The one that works on land, and the one that works on a boat.)
He would travel miles away from home.  He lived in Samoa.  He would travel to kukuiula, Savaii, and around America!!  My Grandfather worked very hard to bring my Grandmother, and my mothers siblings to New Zealand.  My Mother is the eldest of them all.  So she came first to New Zealand. 

I look at my Grandfather as a hero.  He's taught me many things.
