My Year

My year has been good. My favourite part of this year was making solar ovens. Thank you Mrs Buchanan. I liked that my friends and classmates help me around the way. My year was great and I can’t wait till next year.

More News for me

Today we were working on our term 3 goals. It was  hard to think of some new goals.

It took me 30 minutes to think of some ideas and put them on the drawing.

Matariki Returns

Today at reading, we read an article called Matariki Returns. We had to do a google drawing or google doc to explain what we do already know and then after we had read the article what new information we had learnt. I learnt some more about Matariki - that the group of stars is made of more than seven stars.

Get the target!

On Thursday we played Snag-Golf with Jae. What do you think Snag-Golf is? Snag golf is similar to real golf. There were 3 rules. Listen when he talks, don’t talk when Mrs Buchanan and Jae were talking and stop when he blows the whistle. We had to get in groups of 3. My two buddies were Shakia and Katrina. We had to use our hands first then we used the putter. We had to make the tennis ball stick to the sticky mat (Velcro). We had 7 snags first of all. Then we had to stand on our side and try to putt the ball. It was fun doing snag-golf. Thank you Jae.

Buddy Reading

My class, Room 10, does buddy reading with Room 4. Room 4 are good readers because my buddy knew most of the words she had to say and she did a good job. A couple of weeks later Room 4 came to Room 10. I showed my buddy my blog, our class blog and our class site.

Good Job Room 4!

Home and school

Whanau Hui

Last week we had a Chromebook celebration. A lot of parents came. There were 3 ladies involved. Yayleen Hubbard, Mrs Grant and Mrs Buchanan. My dad came to the Chromebook celebration. We went through the whanau slip and  then my dad talked to Yayleen and Mrs Grant. Then Mrs Buchanan gave him the contract to sign. I was waiting so I took some food. Then my dad was done so I found my Chromebook case and put my Chromebook in there and then we went to the library so I finished some of my work and then we went home but I could not finish my work because I had no Internet.

Getting to a standard!

Here are my Term 2 goals that I made today. This is what I will work on this term with a positive and can-do attitude.

Making Our Movie

On a sunny day we made our film festival movie. Our movie is called Kotahitanga. My parts were helping take out the whiteboard, drinking the milk and holding the letter P. My teacher asked people to film. Our class film is cool! We watched our film on the X-treme screen at Sylvia Park and went there on a bus. I had fun doing all of this.
