Term 4 H1-L1gHtZ

Angles

My Reflection :
In class we have been learning to classify angles.  We learnt the type, size and what they look like.  I will use this work in the future because this will help me with my work in Intermediate.  The best part about this learning would've been finding pictures for each slide.  My next step is to learn the ABC angles or IDA (The finding angles using the letters) Better).

Camp Merc Recount

My Reflection
I found this easy because all I had to do is copy it from my test papers and just add a bit.  My next step is to use a bigger/more increased describing words.

T3W5 - Stop Shark Finning

Puntuation Evidence - T2WK8

My Reflection
(read the W.A.L.T).  I found this enjoyable because parts were you make your own sentences I really liked.  This will help me in the future because I learned how to use punctuation better in my writing.  

Falling From The Sky - Writing

My Reflection
For this we had to include 4 new or different words, and 4 different types of punctuation.  The reason why we did this is because to prove what we know about punctuation, I found this easy and fun.  Next time I will improve my use of different and interesting words.

Using Punctuation Correctly: Commas

My Reflection
In class we have been learning to use commas correctly, we had to make a doc to prove what we've learnt about commas.  I found this easy because we've had a lot of practice before with commas.  This work will help me in the future because I've learnt how to commas more correctly. 

Popplet - R22 Powhiri For Clendon Park School

 My Reflection
The purpose of doing this was to brainstorm for the perfect recount.  I will remember this in the future because Popplet helped me to brainstorm.  I enjoyed typing this up because the memories from the day came back to me.  It felt pleasant to brainstorm about our Powhiri because it was a lively.

Planning and prewriting

My reflection
For this activity we had to make a poster that is based on the planning stage, and the purpose of this poster was to also help others. I did this task with Nathan, overall I think we did great, despite the fact that this was our second poster. I need to work on putting more detail in my writing. 

The Three Little Ninjas

My reflection
For this task we had to write about a fairy tale but we could change it and move things around.  I thought this was fun because we got to change lots of things around.  I did this task with Johnny.  My next step is to use better words than said and much better describing words/ideas.

Ways people speak

My reflection
I did this with Johnny and Ridwan, for this task we had to fill out all of these little tasks that were related to "Ways people speak". I thought this was easy because the mini tasks were easy.

Narrative Writing

My reflection
I did this task with Johnny and Braxton, for this we had to choose a fairy tales, and remake it how we wanted to(Fractured fairy tales). I thought this was easy and fun because we could make our own fairy tale.

Character description writing 3

My reflection
For this task we had to write a character description about our Nana or Grandpa. I found this tricky because I didn't know how to explain it. My next step is to add more detail in my text

Recount : Koanga festival

Have you ever done a kapa haka performance ?

On a cold windy Saturday it was the Koanga festival and mostly all the kapa haka (not all)groups have been waiting for the whole year.

First we had to go up to Room 27 at Elim Collage and wait outside because the girl's were getting changed and ready, well we were waiting the boys got mokos on both cheeks.  some people got special forehead mokos because they were either leading a song or a haka.

Next the girl's finally finished, so the boys had to get changed behind a bookshelf(can you believe this !?)

After that we went though our performance twice but in the middle of our second practise it was time to perform.

We lined up behind a black board and straight up ahead I could see the stage.We walked up on the stage(in our lines)finally we performed , I got really nervous but I managed to get over it soon enough.

After we finished , everyone walked of stage and went behind this black fabric and a path lead us outside. We walked back up to Room 27 to get changed the same way we did before.

Finally when we finished we sat down and did a Karakia and finished up

In conclusion I hoped that this recount was great

Haiku Poem : Winter

My reflection

I was learning to write a Haiku poem.  A Haiku poem is a poem about nature and it has five syllables in the first line and in the second line has seven then finally the last line has five so there's a pattern which is 575 , my first Haiku poem was about winter. My next step is to add more interesting phase's and words.

Explanation writing :Brainstrom

My reflection
For this we had to plan for our explanation writing.  I chose the topic How to make a banana milkshake.  I thought this was really fun because I learnt how to make a banana milkshake or any flavour milkshake.  My next step is to add more to the special features.

Explanation writing: How to make a milkshake

                   
My reflection
I was learning to  write my own explanation writing , it was about how to make a milkshake.  I had to choose a topic from a set of topics and I choose How to make a milkshake.  My next step is to add more detail to my explanation writing.

Explanation text : Quiz

 

My reflection
I was learning to write a explanation  (to describe something or tell the reader how it works). I had to do a quiz (which is above the text) about explanation writing . I thought is was fun because  we had to play a game called Big Babies and when we felt like we knew what explanation text is we had to do this Quiz :Explanation Quiz and upload this to our blogs. My next step is to write my own explanation.

                                                           

Speech plan popplet

My reflection

This is my speech planning on  Popplet , my speech was based on reading more books and it is a persuasive speech I think this is a really good speech topic because there are lots of facts about reading. I thought this was great.

My African Praise poem

My reflection

I have been learning to write an African praise poem.

The best part of this is we got to compare our self to an animal. I found this easy because i thought of lots of ideas.

My next step is to use more interesting words.
