Reading: Word clines -Afu and Jasmine

Today I created a google slides with Afu about words clines. Word clines is a ladder of words that are for year 1 then it keeps on going into powerful words like for years 8 and 9. I enjoyed doing this because it was challenging to change a simple word into a powerful word.  

Maths

Today we have been doing maths equations. Our maths question were based on fraction's. I was working on collaboratively with my friend named Juanita.Fractions wasn't my best subject so Juanita so she help me with my fractions.It was really fun that Juanita help me work out the equations.

Read Theory

Today I read this book on on read theory which our class do for 20 minutes.  The story try to make you understand the text and give you question to answer. We have to think about what the question asking us to do, something you have to look back at the story to find the information in the text.

Cross Country

For the last couple of week we have been practicing cross country because we have been building up speed so we can run for a much longer time.

Rugby Cluster Day

Yesterday some people in our school we went out to play rapper rugby and the boys played tackle rugby. The first game we played against was Bailey Road School it was tough game but we won. After that we had about a 30 minute break about 10 minute before our next we did a warm up and in the time we did the warm up we practise passing backwards. The second game we were against point England we tried are best but sadly we lost. We had a awesome day thank to the people that came  out of there time to help us from Otahuhu collage.

Ancient and Modern Olympics

This week my inquiry group did ancient and modern Olympics. We had to record our information in our own word because we would be stealing our people works. After we use our notes and made a Venn diagram to show the different between ancient and modern.

The Magic Box

I will put into the box….

The adventures I had in my past and will have in my future

As well as my tears I’ve shed, and also the joy and happiness I had felt

Also  my first steps on this earth  

I’ll  also put into the box…

The waterfall that I’ve jump off into crystal clear water

As the water make me feel more at home than anywhere else in the world

With the most beautiful sunset with the rose gold that you ever see

 

The last thing I’ll  put into the box  

Is the moon rising over the crystal clear water  

As the strobing glow of fireflies slowly come out of hiding  

Surrounding me as I look up to the unknown galaxy around me

My box is fashioned from crystal and crushed moonstone, with the rushing water from Mt Everest on the lid and the love from my family and friend on it corners.

Its hinges are the toe joints of the flaming  phoenix and  join with feathers from the flightless bird

I shall climb with my box to the highest point of Mt Fuji and I shall run up the stairs of great wall of China, I’ll travel with my box  seeing every single inch of the world.   

This week we have been learning to paint a picture with our words when we write. We used Kit Wright's Magic Box poem to help us do this. My favourite line in this poem is the adventures I had in my past and will have in my future. I like this line because it makes me think about what I have done and the things I might do in the future.
