Playground Writing

WALT upload a post about one thing we did today.

Yesterday we did a playground writing where we had to explain about how the Juniors  got a brand new playground With different parts about it. Like how it was constructed and how happy the  Juniors  were when they got a new playground, and it was a cooperative  google docs with everyone doing it. The one I had done was the how happy the Juniors  was when they saw there brand new playground.

Reflection.

What did I learn? What I learnt was how the playground was built.

Maitai bay brochure

 WALT upload my learning to my blog post.

Last week we had to make a brochure about when we went to Maitai bay and went looking for fish. We had to buddy up and my buddy was Rusty to make the brochure. What we had to have was, What sea life was there, what the rahui has achieved and what is Maitai bay. You could also say what activities you could do there. 

 

Reflection

What did I learn?: I learnt all types of things I didn't know like  that there was a rahui there and was helping out Maitai bay make sea life come back.

WALT upload a post showing what we learned in kiwi can today.

Today we went to kiwi can and I am going to tell you what we learned.When we got their, the kiwican teacher said today we are learning about respect and show us a catchphrase, we respect our school because were cool, after that we had a game called snap crackle pop its where you put something small in the middle like a jandel and we are in a circle and go in groups of three then you can be snap, crackle or pop

I was snap then the teacher would say ether snap, crackle or pop then the person who has the name would run around everyone and back to your team while the other people try and make a gap by standing on one leg and connecting them.Then the runner runs through you and try and get the jandal we had a few games and my team won! Then the teacher wanted to get us in groups of three and say how we were showing respect.  We said how if you got out you wouldn't complain then we played a game of gkq which I have explained before. While we did that they pick out the points we got 3 then we went back to class.

Reflection  

How did I show respect today?: I wouldn't complain when I got out.

What did I enjoy?: I enjoyed when I grabbed the jandal because before I kept going to slow.

What could I improve on?: I think I could improve is my speed because i was slow when going around.

Marine training

On Tuesday we did some marine training. Once we got there we met Oliver the guide who will teach us what to do when we go to the real beach. First he gave us goggles, snorkel and a wet suit to our size, we then went to put it on and it was quite hard putting on the wet suit. Once we did that, Oliver gave us some instructions to follow, the first one was to go with a buddy. We then sat on the edge of the pool and hoped in he then gave us some boogie boards, the first thing he had us do was put our head down and breath though our snorkel and paddle to the end and come back with the boogie boards, the next one we did was he put a hoola hoop under water where we had to go though it, so when it was my turn I went and we had to blow all the water out of our snorkeler then we got changed then went back to school.

Reflection 

What did you learn?: I learn't how to put on a wet suit.

What did you enjoy?: I enjoyed floating in the water since I haven't been in water in a long time.

What is one goal you have to do with your ability in the water; blowing out the snorkel  because water is some times still in there which I swallow.

Have you worn a wet suit before?

We had a tour of the area and then got  showed a big boat called a waka that had carvings  and a really big tree trunk. We then went back and got in to two buddies and played on a site called scratch it is a coding site were we had to get a guy from the left side and using code get them to the right. We did that then had lunch. We then played outside in  this big meadow and  after we did some more coding like how to make the person move using arrow keys We then went home.

ALiM Rotations Drawing

I.A.L.T create a blog post about one thing we did this week


On the 6/8/2020 I did a ALIM  rotations. It is a rotation of handwriting, free writing and drawing. We do it every week while a small group of students do extra math work with the teacher. Today I was on drawing. My drawing is of a minion that was summoned from a dark mage and latches on the ground and rises it up. It tries to hurt people, so the other people try to stop him. There are other mages with other abilities like air, fire, water and  earth.  If you inspect more you can see their are more things in the drawings but I wont go over them cause it would be to long. 

Reflection
What did I enjoy? I enjoyed drawing the images because I get to be creative and draw what I'm interested in.
What did I find challenging? Probably the water mage drawing him on the right.
What do I think I can improve on? I could just getting better at drawing in general since I draw stick men. Tell me some doodle story that you have done!

First thing I did was get a turtle and you could see the shell pieces on it all together.  What I had to do there was a  pattern on each one with pencil. Next with a black marker draw over the pencil and while your doing that our teacher was calling out some of our names. When that happens you get some paint and color your background I think I could have done better because some of the colour look bland and not very bight. But i did like making the pattern and I like the pattern the most then you cut out the turtle and glue it on your background then your done also have you seen a baby turtle before? 

Story about my name is Rez

My name is rez

On the 21/5/20 I read a book called my name is Rez and what we had to do is read the book and take 6 interesting  words and see what there meaning is and use it in a sentence  but first ill tell you about the book.  Its these people in a foreign  country and there moving everywhere and they cant do anything of their culture but they become refugees  and moves to New Zealand but they dont know how to speak English so the girl of the story only knows one English

word. my name is Rez but she learns and now lives in Auckland the end. so then i have a question for you how many langues  do you know?

Am Sum letter

On the 20/5/20 I did a letter about a book called Bok Choy where this one guy called Am Sum came from China to New Zealand we had to pretend that we are him and writing a letter to his family. this is what I did any way have you wrote a letter to some one before?

Review on Bok Choy

On the 20/5/20, I read a book called Bok Choy its when a boy named Jacob and his mum are buying a cabbage called Bok Choy from a man named Am Sum. He is from China and their neighbors call the Bok Choy muck and are mean to them. Jacob knew he would get bullied at school so he went  fishing instead. Then he fell in the fast moving stream but then Am Sum saved him and he woke up in his tent.  His mum came and asked if he was alright and was going to pay Am Sum, but he said no money no problem. Then the neighbors came and said Am Sum would sell his mum for money but Jacob's mum stood up for him. The end. I think the book is okay I would like humor though my favorite part in it is  the part were Jacob gets saved. By the way have you ever fell in a river before?

Eel poster blog

On the 21/4/20 i did a poster about eels and how they migrate and were they migrate. The poster  is down below. The reason i choose the eel because i saw the life span and what i did not know before was that eels go to the sea and that eels are a fish before I did not know what eels are now I know that there fish. This took a lot of researching and work and now i know a lot more. I would really like to know more about this but i like the eels cycle and that some eels can some times live for 80 years crazy right and by the way what is your favorite animals or your favorite migration?

Comprehension Questions to rising seas

on the 20/4/20 i did a Comprehension Questions about this book called rising seas. I read and we could re read the word if we want because it wasn't a memory test. I personally think that's better then just memorializing it because you learn the material better. Down below is the Comprehension Questions  it took me a little bit to do them so why don't you try and do them? Also have you ever re read a book before?

1. What percentage of water on Earth is made up of oceans?

2. Why are sea levels rising? Because the ice caps are melting due to global warming
3. Are rising sea levels getting better or worse? How do you know that? Worse because there still going up in height
4. What are the effects of rising sea levels?  Erosion when wave crash and take part of land away to the ocean and washing up more and more land.
5. In what year did the Port of Auckland see it’s highest sea level? What was the sea level at? 23rd January 2011 5.223
6. How did rainfall effect Australia? It made it more land because of Australia being a giant sponge. 
7. Without researching, how do you think we could help prevent sea levels from rising? Build rock walls were there is Erosion

rising seas summary

On the 17/4/20 I did a summary about a article I read about rising seas what i liked writing was the 20f wave and the giant sponge Australia but I think I could improve my grammar though but still I found it very interesting down below is what I wrote by the way what is your favorite book

Rising seas is a story about how sea levels are rising and global warming. Plus erosion is when waves crash and take some of the land with it. One time a tourist got trapped on a cliff because of the erosion, she was later picked up by a helicopter.  In Buller Gorge a road every one or two years gets flooded washing the entire road and in California there are 20 foot waves. plus we have to make sea level things that tell how high the water is and if the tide are rising more than there supposed to. There called tide gauges and they also use satellites to check. We need to not use as much of carbon dioxide because that melt the icebergs. which make the sea rise like in Australia. There was a huge flood but since Australia was very hot and most of the land was dry it acted like a giant sponge. To help this problem we all have to team up by not using as much carbon dioxide to stop rising sea levels.

reading task

On 16/4/20 I did a reading task what the reading task was that we had to read this book and pick out 6 unique words and tell what they mean in your own words. What I did is below after we gave what the words meant we made a sentence with the words below. Doing this really helped understand what these words meant in detail I think that I could do better on the sentence with Evaporation but i tried my best.

adapting - changing to certain situation. 

I am adapting to online learning.

Erosion - when wave crash and take part of land away to the ocean.

I heard that there was an Erosion that happened today in Auckland.

Evaporation - when the sun heats up water and makes it boil and turn to steam

I like when water Evaporation in to steam.

Global warming - when there is a lot of carbon dioxide in the air making the world hotter

Global warming is a thing we need to fix immediately. 

Sea level - where the average of where the top of the water is.

I here that the sea level is getting close to the house.

Tide gauges - to see if the water level is going up

I hear that the Tide gauges stopped working.

Australia

On the 16/4/20 i did a poster about Australia and i wanna talk about it.
what I didn't know was that  Australia had opposite seasons to England and also there its extremely hot. Which is something I don't like  I know the heat  because i was born there. Also there flag is very similar to us except they have one more star then us and theirs is white and ours is red. By the way where were you born?

My hobby

W.A.L.T  Write about a hobby.

One of my favourite hobbies is reading. The book I like reading the most are books 'Tom Gates@. Because his books are funny and cool I like to read at school and if I get a new book at home i'm gonna read it. And I will tell you about one of his book is called super good skills. So it start off he's at school and it's almost the end of the year and his teacher looks really tried. Then the bell goes off and it's the end of school and when he leave's he says something but everyone scraping their chairs makes it so he cant hear what he said. Then their going on a road trip. Then when they get there it's worse than in the picture. That's the part I am up to in the book.

Blog post analysis

W.A,L.T to write about our blog post over a year.

Last week we had to analysis our yearly blog posts. First we made a bar graph in google sheets then we moved it to a google drawing. In the google drawing we had to add a title and then we had to analyse our graph by writing some statements about our graph and then a goal for ourselves for the year.

swimming

W.A.L.T we are learning to write a reflection about learning to do strokes  

These past weeks we have been learning to do strokes. On Monday we got changed, we hopped in the water and we all got given a number. I got number 1.  Then we did some gliding; this is where you push off the wall and don't move your legs or arms.  After that we did some floating and we had to float for 60 seconds.  I think I improved at freestyle stroke doing this but I think I need to improve on backstroke. After this we got free time and we played around, then we hopped out and got changed. It's really fun doing swimming and learning. I had a good time.
