Sir Peter Blake

WALT: write for self
Sir Peter Blake was the captain of the America and New Zealand World Cup for yachting. He was a yachtsmen. He sadly got killed by pirates one day when he was sailing. To remember Sir Peter Blake, we wear red and white socks on those yachting competitions. Sir Peter Blake use to wear red and white socks all the time.

Now people want children's dreams to come true just like Sir Peter Blake.
So these are my dreams.
What I want to be: I want to be a doctor because I want to help people with whatever's wrong with them.
How might I do it: I think I can become a doctor by trying to have a really good education in high school so I can go to a medical university.
What is my dream for New Zealand: my dream for New Zealand is that it stays beautiful as it is now.
Feedback/Feedforward: 
Great Work I really like the way you have told the reader a little bit about him and the told what your dreams are. I really want New Zealand to stay green and clean as well
