Another career

Today Andrew came to talk about her career, her career was about midwifes. She told us that on her first delivery of birth (like help provide someones baby) that she was only 19-years-old and that she lived in Canada when it happend so in Canada they only have supporters so they can only support them. I really enjoyed that because it was awesome.
😀

My career

Today Bronwyn came to us to talk about her career. Her career was about creating buildings on her computer like planning them, she showed us a 2D house and a 3D house. She showed us some of these files that have her building plans, She said that she studied at North Tec in Whangarei, She also told us about how these people tell her what kind of house they want and she designs it creatively. I enjoyed this because of the way she explained it sounded interesting it got me thinking about if I should do her kind of career.

Northland Reginal council

Today the year 7 & 8's had visitors they came to talk to us about pests on marine boats they showed us some pictures of pests that were on marine boats, there were three visitors I forgot their names. They told us that they are going around the north land of New Zealand finding all sorts of pests. One of the ladies told us that when she was small she wanted to do something in common of boating like looking at marine boats. I really liked the stuff that they said like they had to deal with the marine boats some were damaged some were leaking. This is a photo to prove that they came.

Analogue

Today I learnt to do time.
These are the three things that I learnt.

  1. Knowing what Quarter past and Quarter to is.
  2. Knowing what hand is minutes and what hand is hours.
  3. Knowing what 5 10 15 was for example (1 min is 5 sec, and so on) 
The easy part was doing the time. The hard part was thinking about what the time is. I think I need help on nothing I can't think of anything that I need help with after my lesson with Whaea Verbina I have felt that I don't need help with time. My evidence is this picture.
 This one is Quarter past 3 (3:10)

 This one is Quarter to 3 (3:50)

Hyper Docs

Yesterday I was learning about hyper docs. The easy part was nothing I feel there wasn't a easy part. The hard part was thinking about what we learnt in the past. I could improve by being more involved in what my group is saying. I don't think I have any evidence. This is all I can say but next time I'll do much better.

Today

Today my class (Nga rau puawai) got split into room 5 and 6 because my teacher traveled with the yr 5 and 6's on their camp. I am placed in room 5 but some of my friends are in room 6 so I'm kind of disappointing because we are staying in these classes for a week. The fun part was doing a commercial about Its moments like these you need Minties. The boring part was doing the thing with the tire because the tire was so hard to lift so I walked while everyone else was running.

O.R.E.O

This week my class and I have been writing a O.R.E.O piece of writing for example:

Sports is better than Kapa haka. I disagree because I believe that people could learn new kapa haka waiatas & hakas it'll be fantastic to find new waiata and share that with the world. Secondly if we didn't do Kapa haka how would we get to teach people from other countries so I strongly suggest that sport isn't better than kapa haka. Thirdly I believe that other schools can learn so much from new waitas that they haven't heard before and it'll be so nice for schools all over the world to cary on those waiatas so my suggestion is that sport isn't better than Kapa haka.

The easy part was writing this piece of work. The hard part was thinking  of what to write next. But I got through that and know my writing is complete.

problem solving

This week my class and I were problem solving. The easy part was reading and following the checklist which I will show you now.
My problem was hard but I managed to finished and it was true there are 44,640 min in 31 days.
The hard part was figuring what the answer was.

Homophones

Today I learnt about homophones I learnt that homophones are two words that sound the same but different spelling. The easy part was writing the different words that sound the same. The hard part was nothing really just being involved again but I was a little involved. I could improve by nothing. My evidence is that I could show you two different words that say the same thing for example: There, Their, They're.

Plenary

Last week My group and I were doing our Plenary I only did my reading part it was quit easy so yeah. A plenary is something that shows you what was easy what was hard and what you could improve on when you last edited it. The easy part was writing What was easy....

Doing the chores

Here is a writing about the holidays. We have been writing about when we felt excited, happy, surprised and sad in week 1. Then we had to choose from three stories because I think we never did one of them. So I chose the felling that I felt sad and here it is.
Topic:Doing chores.


  1. Washing dishes.
  2. Vacuuming the kitchen.
  3. Scraping the old food.

When I woke up I had to do the dishes after Sam, my niece & nephew and I finished our breakfast it was like a little to do it wasn't what I expected but I finished then I got to play on my phone for a little while the dishes were so exhausting they actually made me tired afterwards.

But then I had to vacuum up the kitchen it was so exhausting as well because my back started to hurt and I was tired too but after all that long time of vacuuming I managed to finish then play on Sam's iPad it was really fun to play on anyway.

Then I had to scrap all the old food from the BBQ dish with my hands it was disgusting to do it had all that GU and yuck on it I can’t really explained the yuckyness but it was disgusting. Ew I had to do it with my hands it was disgusting to do especially with my hands and after all that scraping I got to play on my phone again.

This is my whole story in the holidays. The easy part was adding new words because I was publishing this from my book to my Chromebook. The hard part was really nothing actually because I just had to copy my work that was on my book onto my Chromebook and add some other words on my writing. I could improve by putting more interesting words in.

Cains arcade

For two weeks we have been doing Cains arcades it's really been difficult for my friend and I. We haven't  really finished yet but I'm sure that next time we do some we will finish on time. The easy part about this is getting all the materials like: Cardboard, Hot glue gun, scissors, ruler, a red, blue, green and white paint, sticks, cutter, tickets and a watch to time you. The hard part was thinking on how to create this. I really could improve by thinking harder and making the arcade game on time because we are away from being done. I have no pictures of what we've done so far but I think I might get some evidence one day.

The end of Term 2

 This term my class and I are making a blog post about our work that we are proud of, needing improvement and what I enjoyed. The post I'm proud of is my story book I had taken the right time to write my story book and I really am greatful that I have finished that I only had one mistake but I think it will be great that when a lot of people look at the hard work that I had put effort in they be able to create their very own story.

The work that I want to improve in is my Sir Peter Blake because I believe that it needs more working in there but I think I did those words are alright but I could do better in that. Everything that I put in their  should turn out OK dough.

The piece of work that I enjoyed is my food for thought because it can show the world what little kiwi's are learning in town I don't have anything else to say now but people should dream big.

Sir Peter Blake

This week I have been researching about sir Peter Blake I have been successful  by doing hard work. The easy part was creating my Popplet. The hard part was putting all the sentences into my own words. Everything that I have been working on was really fun it really got me going. Then Today the year 7's and I did a character web about sir Peter Blake it was really a challenge mostly I was thinking of a personality that Sir Peter Blake might show as a leader. For all those who don't know what character is a character is your personality a personality is how you feel or how you react. This is my Research so check it out if you want to.

my story book

Today I had a task to do and my task was to write a Maori story book. The hard part was to find the right pictures and the easy part was doing the sentences. I had to write two stories but it was quit easy when I started I felt like this was going to take forever but it didn't it took like 1 or 2 minutes but it doesn't take long. Here is an example of a story. You might have YOU NEED PERMISSION but it doesn't matter  here are some instructions on how to make a story.

Firstly the taniwha will tell you to choose out of four (He taniwha i te kapata, He haereere, Te wa hararei and I taku ruma moe) A monster in the closet, A journey, The holidays and In my bedroom
Choose one.

Secondly then the taniwha will tell you to select a dialect for your please choose maori but if you want choose Kai tapu.

Thirdly the taniwha will say (Ko wai to ingoa) What is your name then write your name in a little box down below. Then push the green button.

Fourthly then it would show you four people on your choice choose what ever flow's past your mind.

Fifthly then it would show you hairbrushes it means to choose your hair color choose any one you like. Then it would say what is your favorite color. Then it would come up with boats, subways and other stuff under your choice choose any one you like. Then it would come to a end.

VIEW STORY BOOKS.

Monday 15 May 2017

language features

last week we have been learning about eels we had to do it in silent writing and it was great it got me thinking about all the information that popped up in my mind about eels. So I gathered all the information I had in my mind and this is what I got. So I think this might be enough information for you guys maybe for ideas that pops up in your mind that's good.

 Habitat
Short finned eels are often found in rivers, lakes and swamps. Short finned eels like to live far away from long finned eels so they can live in peace. Adult eels live a short life from 13-23 or 24. Long finned eels are maybe hard to find if you don’t know where to look.
       
                                                 Appearance
The eels live in rivers, creeks and oceans they live a short life then we do. When they try to live their life people go hunting for some eels but eels blend in with the bottom of the ocean so it's hard for people to catch them with their hands. Some eels are scared of people some eels try to scare them away to protect their little ones. Some eels are scared terrified even but when they grow up they start learning that some things are not quite scary after all. When they breathe in and suck up water or dirty water it helps them swim faster and better it also helps them to catch other things in the water or the ocean.
                                                    
                       Diet
Whatever the eels eat depends on the size of any creature that crawls around the ocean. They eat slimy & slithery sea creatures they also eat snails all of those slimy & crawly creatures help them to get bigger and stronger. Long finned eels like to eat other eels and they eat anything that they can find out in the oceans, swamps and creeks. Short finned eels like to eat little thing like snails for instance long finned eels like to eat big things like seagulls and other eels I think they eat seagulls.

Friday 12 May 2017

Language feature
