Refletion

Numeracy

This week for numeracy we have been focusing on teaching fractions. I have not enjoyed teaching fractions, and I am not good at teaching.


Topic 

We are working on finding places and finding some things about them. I like doing this for topic because you get to find places on the map.

Term 2 reflection

Numeracy

This term for Numeracy we focused on working with decimals. We were doing decimals on study ladder and khan academy I found khan academy quite hard.At the end of the term we were planning a trip with a buddy, my buddy and i chose to go to Argentina. I really like doing financial literacy the most.  

Literacy

This term for reading we were focusing on reading punctuation, we focused on how punctuation can change a sentence. This term for writing my group worked on making our paragraphs all about the same subject and we also tried to make our writing sound better by adding some key words.

Prep

This term for prep I handed in a CV to be in the bank I got an email back saying that I was in. My job was to keep track of how much money the people in room 14 have. After that i come and sort out the money. We get payed 8 kawa a day and if you finish early and help out you get payed exsta. When it was time to buy things I had 99 banqer dollars.


Goals

My goals for next term. My numeracy goal is to be in the highest maths group. My reading goal for next term is to be able to read punctuation well. My writing goal is to use paragraphs well.

Main star: participating and contributing


My sisters hockey team was short on players so i volunteered to play for them. I have scored a goal even though I play fullback. Last week I got the player of the day. I do not like fullback but I can't quit because they are short players.

I now play 5 sports.

Sailing boat down the stream

In the week me and my family made some boat to go down the stream. The goal was to make a boat that didn't sink, made out of card board. Mine sank because I pushed it under with a stick. My Dad made a cool one it was a catamaran. Next time we mite make one out of wood.

Look at what they looked like.




Helping my brother play the Cello


Teaching my brother: main star, relating








Mum asked me to help my brother in his music lesson. He is learning the cello.

It was hard work because you have to be patient.

Matariki Main Star

What is matariki

Matariki is the Maori name for cluster of stars, when the 7 stars named the 7 sisters start twinkling is signals the Maori new year. It use to be a time when people remembered those that had died but now people celebrate it in lots of different ways. My family doesn't really celebrate matariki but sometimes on matariki we might have fireworks. 


this is a picture of the 7 sisters
