Term 2 Week 10

On Thursday last week we had a assembly to celebrate Matariki. First they told us the story of Matariki, then they had a bunch of questions, which of course had prizes. When there is a prize to a question, it makes people excited, resulting in more people answering the question. Psychology!
After Morning tea, we all got sorted into groups and went to the MATARIKI ROTATIONS! (dun dun duun!) The first one my group went to was the Making Stars bit, in which we made stars (surprise!). The second one we went to was one where we coloured in some paper hands. No idea what that has to do with Matariki. Finally, we came back to our class and had a moari lesson.  

Percentages

My Reflection.
I was learning to convert fractions into decimals and percentages. I found this tricky because it was hard to find the fraction, decimal and percentage. My next step is to do this with bigger fractions.

Speech reflection

My Reflection

I was learning to write a persuasive or informative speech. I chose informative. I found this easy because I know  a lot about penguins. My next step is to create an persuasive speech. 

Kaitiaki Art

My Reflection

I was learning to create a artwork about the Maori gods, or Kaitiaki. This one was supposed to be Tawhirimatea, but I accidentally made it look like he was crazy. My next step is to do this again, and try to not make him look crazy.

Reorganizing information

My Reflection

I was learning to read a piece of text and reorganize it in my own words. I found this tricky because it is hard to find the information that the thing is asking for. My next step is to reorganize information in a larger piece of text.  

Paragraphing

My Reflection

I was learning to add paragraphs to my writing. I found this easy. My next step is to use more paragraphs in my writing.

Term 2 Week 7?

This week the ICAS thing happened. The science one. Last week I was sick for the entire week except Monday, so nothing much there.  Erm... My next step is to do the reading ICAS...?
