Koro’s Gift
When Moko arrived at Koro’s house, she ran out of the car and went up to Koro’s glass door and peeped through. Then Moko rang the doorbell. Koro woke up with a fright and grabbed hold of the bone carving.
“Have you come to stay with Koro” “ Yes I have I’m staying for two weeks”. After dad left to go back home, Moko went to sleep. She had a dream that the bone carving was stolen.
She screamed “Arrrrrrrrrgh” and Koro came rushing in the room.
Moko said, “The bone carving is gone!” Koro said, “No, no I don’t wear it at night. Have a good rest.”
In the morning Koro and Moko had breakfast. After breakfast, they went to the basement. Moko looked at all the Maori carvings. There were ones made out of greenstone. Koro gave her a smaller bone carving. She thought, “That’s the one he’ll give to my family.” but she didn’t say it.

Bono, I think you have put all the main points of the story in this retell. You have used some of the new vocabulary from the story and sequenced the events correctly. You have used speech in your retell. You have achieved your goals.
