Calender/dot art

 Hey Readers!

During this term we have been foucusing on calender. We first got to pick two choices of our art, the options were falling down a tunnel, dot art, and lastly kandinsky. I picked dot art and falling down a tunnel. The group I got into was dot art with Miss McLeod. For the first week of dot art we used cotton buds to color in a dot art coloring page. We had to pick four colors I used teal peach and two other colors which I forgot what they were. The next week we made our draft some of us got to use compass ( not the north south east west one by the way).  I struggeled using it so I used a cup after a while of messing up. After we finished doing our draft some people got to test out doing the dots on our drafts. Once we finished that we started our real verson we needed to be really carefull because if we rubbed it out it would leave marks. Anyways I think this blurb is a bit big now so here is the end product.

Measuring in Maths

 Hey Readers!

During this week in homerooms for maths we have been doing measuring and capasity. For the first day we got to use glasses and add water and after that we checked how much water there was by using measuring cups.  We did that type of measuring for a week then last week we had to make a slide and name it Measuring. It had to include the steps we used and a graph we made etc. The hardest part about the measuring trying to measuring how much was really in the cups that we used and something else which is in the slide.  Making the slide was easy because I only needed to write what we did etc. Have you done slides before?

Year 6 P.E

Hey Readers!

 Today for the year 6 p.e with Mrs Jones, Miss Mcclelland and Miss Williamson. First we lined up to go into the hall as we got into the hall we got put into two teams. The first game we played was paper siccors where you run up to a person from the other team and do rock paper sicors and if you win that bit you go to the next person once you reach the last person to vrs and you win you get your team a point. Then we played sharks and islands so theres two sharks and there is multiple islands.  When you go into a island you get protected from the sharks and when someone else goes into the island that your in you go to another island if you get tagged by a shark your then a shark.  After that we played a really fun game called Animal crossing where you walk to a hoop and walk like any animal. My favourite game was Animal crossing because it was fun watching others do the different animal walking. Three videos of doing the animal crossing will be down bellow. 

Have you done any of these games we did Today? Do you do P.e at your school?

Gaming Addiction slide

 Hey Readers!
During these two weeks in Miss McLeod's reading group we have been foucsing on debate groups. To be able to debate we picked a group, I personaly picked gaming addiction. First we read two stories about gaming addiction then we made a google slide about what we have been learning about. Also some research to back it up.  We had to get into buddies my buddy was Cameron. What was hard was researching because sometimes you don't really know if whats put online is true. Writing my own opinion was quite easy because I already had a idea in my head. 

Te reo Moari video/ greetings

We got into buddies, my buddie was my best friend Bella. Next Bella and I wrote down what we wanted to say in the video. Then I got my chromebook and Bella and I started filming it took us two or three tries but we got there in the end. After we finished we told Mrs Jones and she said we needed to blog. Sorry if i've posted this a bit late but here is the end result. You can't really see our faces but you can here our voices.

Describe a moment in time

Hey Readers!

For the past few weeks in Miss McLeod's we have been doing describe a moment in time to get ready for our e-asttle test at the end of this term.  First Miss McLeod modelded the the introduction then I made a copy of a document that we used for our writing. After that I started my introduction which included the setting, sencers etc. The following week we started our first and secound paragraph, and for each paragraph it needed to be based of one sencer for each one.  Now today we started our concluson to end our story then I self checked, buddie check, then finally showed it to Mrs Harris.  What I found hard was doing my concluson because I wasn't really sure what to put in it. What I found easy was doing my introduction because I got to describe the setting etc. Mrs Harris said I could blog it so here is the result!

Have you ever done describe a moment in time writing before? Comment bellow

Metaphors with Miss Hodgson

 Kia Ora readers!

Today with Miss Hodgson/ Miss H for Miss McLeod's writing we have been doing a Metaphor mini lesson. First we looked at the mini lesson slide, that explained what metaphors are. In the mini lesson it also had some pictures that we used to make some sentences.  After that I made a copy of the document  Miss McLeod gave us to do. Not using as or like was very tricky because I use those words quite alot in my writing. Thinking of sentences was easy but it took me a while to get it right.

Do you know what Metaphors are? If you do comment down bellow an example.

Here is the ending result.

Similes Mini lessons

Hey Readers!

Today with Miss H for the mini lesson we learn't about Similes. Similes is when you compare something to something else.  First we read some examples where we had to fix up an sentence. Then we  made our own sentences by looking at a image. Once we finished the mini lesson we had to do a google doc with some images that we needed to use as and like in two senteces. What I found hard was doing the last bottom part were I didn't have an image and I had to figure it out. Everything else was easy. Have you ever done something simalar to this?

Wonder Character

Kia Ora Readers!
During this term in Miss McLeods reading group we have been reading a story called Wonder. Miss McLeod found an website were you can make a character that is sort of like the bookcover except you can design your own. After I finished doing my reading activity I went onto the website and started creating mine. If you want to make your own character here is the link to the website: Wonder. The first step I did was pick my face shape then I choose my eye and ears. After that I picked my hair I choose some long braids, also some accersories. Then I picked a precept a precept is sort of like a queot. Doing precept was tricky because it took me a long time to choose the right one. Doing my face was really fun because I got to design it my self. My preset means when your talent doesn't work just try your best put your effort into it.
