week 6 reflection

 The highlight of my week was doing my Pepeha because I learned lots more about my family. We had to say what our Manga, Moana, Awa, Waka, Kura, Ahau and Whanua . In translation is Mountain, Ocean, River, Canoe, School, Where your from and family name. I my other highlight is swimming zones tomorrow i will be versing other school in town. 

The thing that was challenging was  Maths because we had to do division. I don´t really like maths that much but i tried a division it was big maths problems. We had to solve 9 divided by 99  we used a strategy to get the answer. 

What i have done to show the mercy values was at swimming practice i was yelling ¨Keep on going you got this¨. I helped a little kid to find her hat and we played with each other in the playground .

The thing i am looking froward to is spelling because i love going the spelling task everyday. I learn how to write lot of word and do three task with it its so cool and fun to do.

 

Week 5 reflation

This week i learnt in our word of the week the word was  sensational. I learnt what sensational means, It means to be lovely, excellent and great. I did my spelling task, we did swimming training, I did my Pepeha and we had Mahi Tahi.

What I i really like was R.E  because I learnt what happens on the second day of lent and I also learnt a prayer to say. We had to talk about how a person in you friendship change their personalty.

The thing i found challenging was my word of the week like how to pronounce the word sensational it took me time to say the word but i got it .it took me a while to find what the definition is in a dictionary , what it look like , and what it sound like.

I have worked towards some of my goals by adding paragraphs in my writing and blogs. Next week i want to work on my pronunciation in my work that i do.

The mercy values mean to stick up for yourself and others when they are hurt. I have shown the mercy values by helping my friends in need of help and i have been respecting others personal space.

I am really look forward to spelling test because it is a very fun task to do when you are in class. You learn lots of new word and learn how to write them. 

Week 4 reflection

 My highlight for this week is swimming sports because the whole school gets to go to the pools for swimming. We had to go in our house groups there was Yellow, Red, Blue, Green. I am in Yellow house group. We did freestyle, Backstroke and breaststroke I came second in freestyle and last in breaststroke but at least i tried my best  and i did not want to do backstroke. 

The thing that was challenging was a boat the floats. We had to make a boat that floats with only paper, tape and scissors. I was stuck on planning what my boat was going to look like and how its going to float. It was very challenging to do this task but i did it.

What have I done to walk in the footstep of Jesus is giving up on thing like sitting doing nothing but go and walk around and trying to give up fat food.

I have shown the mercy value by cheering people at swimming sport like people that was in my team and people was not in my team.  

Week 3 reflection

 The highlight of my week was tech because it was the year 7 first year going to tech. At tech the year 7 and 8 got split up in to different class. The year 7 got Matua smith  and the year 8 got  Mr Subritzky. Matua smith dose wood work the first thing we learnt was to freehand sketch a box. After that we had to put on some safety glasses on because Matua smith was cutting wood for us. We got the wood and we had to make a butt gap it is when you make a gap for another piece of wood to fit in.

The thing I found challenging this week was swimming because swimming is not one of my favourite things to do but I always try my best at it.

Something I want to work on next week is my maths because I don´t really like maths but I really want to get better at it. I want to work on solve problems faster and quicker.

I showed the mercy values this week by helping a little kids in the playground. on of the kids wanted to know where her friend was and there was another kid wanted help on the flying fox.

week 2 reflection

 My high light for week 2 was doing the mercy value video. It was fun say all of the value like compassion,respect.Another fun thing about the video was doing it with my friends we did lots of bloopers when we were doing the film.

The thing that i found challenging was swimming training its because swimming is not one of my favourite sports but i still give it a go.

What was a  success i have had was my word of the week.The word we had to do was cacophony that word means a loud harsh discordant of sound.Why i accomplish this task it because it was hard trying to say cacophony and trying to find what it means.

What i learnt was the mercy values and to what they mean. Compassion,compassion is when you stick up for yourselves and other.Respect,is when you respectful of everyone differences. Hospitality,It mean to welcome others  and to be friends to people and I am not going to do the rest.

I am looking forward to more RE and maths.

2019

My first blog was in 2019 it was about baking during mahi tahi. The difference is that i used the words over and over again. I did not add pictures and explain the topic that well.

2020

My present blog are very different to my other past blogs i had quality information and had added paragraph to describe my topic. I add pictures to show what I did and I wanted the reader to read what I am learning about.

 

Angles

 Today Kakapo class was learning about angles. We learnt    about different name for different angles. An acute is less than 90° and a obtuse is greater than 90°  but less than 180°. The angles are measured by a protractor a protractor is shaped as a half circle.

To measure an angle is you put the centre on the protractor on the corner of the angle. where they meet and where ever the line it up you measure it up with the line that is on an angle. here is what a protractor look like. and here is an right angle.

                          

Where in the world

 This weeks Where in the world we did The Daintree Rainforest. The Daintree Rainforest is located in the northeast coast of Queensland,Australia. The Kuku Yalanji people live in the Daintree Rainforest. Their songs and legends continue to this day. Daintree Rainforest is the oldest Rainforest on Earth. the area is 1,200 km2. This is what i did.

 

learning blog

 This week my class did where in the world the place we did was Cobh its a town in Ireland. Cobh population is 10,501 its known as the Titanic last port of call in 1912. The day the Titanic left Cobh was on April 11, 1912 the towns local time is Tuesday 10:20 pm.

The next thing I did was what would happen if trees expelled 10% of oxygen. For my bad thing was trees produce 100% of oxygen. So take away 90% from 100% that would be 10% of oxygen. we would have trouble breathing with 10% of oxygen.
