My culture presentation!

 This week we were making a culture presentation to explain what we do at our culture. My culture is chinese. We filled up the little boxes of what you do at your culture like cultural foods, cultural clothing and sports. I found it a bit tricky to find some facts of my culture and finishing it in time. I enjoyed adding facts about my culture into the little boxes. Here is my work

Te Kuri a Paoa

A  few weeks ago we were learning about Kiwa and Paoa for art. We used a big black piece of paper, then we had to grab an white pastels to draw the outline of Kuri. After we done that we used an orange pastel to colour the saddle then we put the yellow on top. After we coloured in the saddle we got an brown pastel to colour the fur. After we put the brown down we used a orange pastel on top of the brown so it can blend into a different type of brown. Then lastly we had use a white pastel for the hair stroke on Kuri. I found it tricky to learn and blend the pastels together. I enjoyed drawing and blending colours of Kuri. Here is my work

The story of easter!

 Last week for reading we were learning to summarise and trying to retell the story of easter. We first had to go on a class site and we had to read a story about holy week then we also had to watch a video about the story of easter (Jesus sacrifice). Then on the second step we had to grab little pup it's and colour them in and cut them out so we can screencastify it . After we coloured and cut the pup it's out, me and my classmate walked outside, we grabbed our chair and pup it's and she was holding the pup it's and i was reading out the story. What I found it tricky was that to publish in time because it took a few days to complete. I enjoyed reading out the story of easter. Here is me and my classmate retelling the story of easter!

Room 1's goal setting

 Today our class was learning to set our goals. Our teacher first gave us two slide to work on in our google drive. Then we had to go on our learning disposition goal. We had to choose a school subject that you think you need to practice and work on, and after we done that we had to choose a learning hero from the learning disposition that have the stuff you need to do in your learning subject. The learning heros came from the Horouta waka. I enjoyed writing in my goals. I found tricky on picking one of the learning heroes because they are all so amazing! My digital learning object shows that I can embed my slides onto my blog.

What are your goals for this year? Who would be your learning hero? please tell me in the comment section I would love to read them!

February Reflection!

 Today we were reflecting on what we did in february. First we had to say what we enjoy from reading, I enjoyed making the chinese new year poster from reading. Then we talk about what our special projects we did in February and one of them is setting up the rat traps and the possum traps. We also talked about our maths goals, what you think you did well in maths and what you think you need to improve in maths. And the last thing we need to do is talk about what we enjoyed in writing from february, I enjoyed writing about my favourite toy we played with when we were little.
