October Reflection

Today we are reflecting on our month of learning. Have you done a monthly reflection? We do monthly reflections so we can see how far we have come at the end of the month.

I enjoyed learning this month because we learnt so much this year and I loved learning this month.

I found it tricky to do a background because one of the boxes were already white so I could not make a cool gradient colour. So I left it white.

Next time I would change the colour to make it pop instead of it just being white and not that interesting.

Here is my October Reflection:

Paralympic Games

Today we were learning about the Paralympic games. The Paralympic games are on at the moment and NZ is doing great! I enjoyed learning about the Paralympic games because they are really nice to the people with no legs or arms or any thing different to other people and they are just as good as the people doing the Olympic games. I found it tricky to find information because the Olympics are more popular. It is a good thing my teacher found some videos. Here is my 5 facts:

June Reflection

Today for Writing / Inquiry we were doing our June Reflection. We need to do it every month because we can sit there and remember what we did. Have you done a monthly reflection? I enjoyed learning this month because I learnt a whole lot of stuff! I found it tricky to think of who to do the complement because I could not think of who.

Here it is!

Bee Bots

This week for inquiry we have been learning how code. We had little robots that looked like bees that we had to get to our number. My number was 14. My code was 8x West Left turn 90* 2x South. Bee bots are tiny bees that you code to move in the direction that you want it to go. Did you know when Bee Bots ar charging their eyes glow red? But when they are fully charged they glow green? I enjoyed coding the Bee Bots because it was challenging. I found it tricky to know how far on step was for the Bee Bots because it was less than one of my feet. So I went on my tippy toes and walked like that and it worked.

Here is a picture of a Bee Bot:

March Reflection

Today we were reflecting on our work from march. We do this to remember what we do in our class in one month. I enjoyed reflecting on my work because it made me think of all my memories from this month. I found it tricky to change the background because google drawings don't have the option so I had to double click to find it. Next time I would change the sentence because I had lots of good ones.

Term 1 Goals 2021

Today we were filling out our goals for Term 1 2021. I enjoyed writing in my goals because I could write what I wanted to do and If I do it, I can put a tick next to it! I found it tricky to find out which character I was because most of them sounded like me. So I chose Hinehakirirangi because she challenges herself and persiveres. Next time I would change my learning goal to reading so I could improve on comprehension. I will ask my Whanau to fill it out as well then I will update my blog. Here it is: 

Treaty of Waitangi

Today we were sorting parts of the story of the treaty of waitangi. We got to work in groups and I got put with Oliva S, Seddon and Luke. The times were 1814 to September 1840.  We had to sort the facts into which year or month they were in. I enjoyed cutting the pieces out because it was nice and easy and I got lots of help from the people in my group. I found it tricky to find out one of them because it kept showing the wrong thing. So I put it in the time that had none. Next time I would try to make it look more clear because you can't really read it.

Here it is!

Art/ Taking photos

Today yesterday we took photos of our beautiful native plants. We wanted to see if we could get very nice ones of them with light shining through or close ups on the flowers. I took 9 photos in total but I had to use 3 of my best ones to put them into a competition! The names of the best plant photos were a Flax tree, a Lancewood tree and a Lemonwood tree. Did you know lancewood looks like a leafless christmas tree? I learnt that the lemonwood trees leaves have 5 parts. I enjoyed taking photos because I didn't notice that there were so many! I found it tricky to know which ones were native because I found out that aloe vera was not actually native. So I made sure I asked before I took a photo. Next time I would change it so I did it with different ones.

Here are my three photos:

Kawa Of Care 2021

On Friday, we learnt about how some things can't be shared on the internet and how that you should keep your last name secret.  We got to use any google tool, so, I used google Jamboard because I have not used it that much. I enjoyed adding the sticky notes because I had so many ideas that I could put in them. I found it tricky to make the background different because I could not find where it said background. So I looked more and clicked some things and I found it! Next time I would change it so the background was a darker colour so the sticky notes stood out more.

Here is my Kawa of Care:

Term 1 Goal Setting Reflection

Today we were seeing if we achieved our Term 1 goal setting. I improved on my maths alot and learnt heaps of my 7 and 8 times. I showed people how to do their blogs and helped with their work. I even just now showed them about a polyline!

I liked drawing the ticks with polyline because everyone thought it was a good idea.

It was hard to make the ticks because at first I didn't what to do.

I enjoyed putting everything back where I found them.
I found it tricky to find something starting with Z.
