+*My term 3 reflection+*

This term is been amazing!

This term i have enjoyed writing newspaper articles,information reports and just writing in general.I have been doing well to achieve my goals i have been trying pretty hard to achieve them.This term we have been learning a lot about what our devices can do! We have made amazing animations which is VERY fun to do.We learnt how to make our blogs the way we like it.We could do back rounds,colours,changing our fonts!! And we got more options to our fonts.This term we have been doing more maths,like multiplicative thinking,more basic facts learning.


This term we also have been doing a lot of different writing like newspaper reports,information reports i really enjoyed doing articles about our school and our class.So that parents know what our school and class have been doing. I have really been enjoying doing different types of writing. We wrote an information report about wetas. It was really interesting learning about wetas and how long it has live for which is a VERY long time. I have learnt that an newspaper reporter doesn't use wow words they use sweet and simple words.


We have been doing a lot of R.E/religious education this term. We have been doing a massive candle with team work. Lot's of fun things and we have learnt a lot about god,Jesus,and the holy spirit. I have always loved doing R.E and i loved it this term.This term we also did cross country run! This term has been a lot of fun,excitement and so much things i have learnt.I can not wait till term 4.

It took us a while to finish,some kids didn't get to finish of sadly.I was hoping to get an artist cause i really want to become one.When i checked i got an artist!!!! and all different types of artist.This is a great way to see our interest and see what the outcomes are!

How to be successful in a news report!

In our class we have been learning how to write like a news reporter.So we wrote about the show we got on 6th September on Thursday.It was called Little red robin hood.

W.A.L all about newspaper!

why we are learning more about newspaper?
we are learning about the newspapers because newspapers from the olden days have a lot of information from the past.Also the newspapers today! News papers tell us about...Deaths,current events,sports,weather,places that we want to go,New Zealand native birds,plants,areas.Newspapers tells us a lot of things.Without newspapers we would not know what would be around us.

What a news report needs:
-headline
-lead paragraph
-body paragraph
-by line
-all the W'S who,when,where,why and if you want witch.


 if you have all of these then your news report will be successful.

Ice skating fun!

Swoosh Swoosh! others were skating and have the time of their life.On the other hand i was terrified if i fell over,and how hurtful it could of been.I tried letting go of the barrier,but my nerves were pulling me back.But my friends were there to help me and help me.They helped me a lot,but after a while woosh! i could do it! all i did was i glided and i just bended my knees and then i knew that wouldn't  fall over,and that's  exactly what happened :) My best friend was a natural at skating! she was amazing.She did fall over a few times but it was ok.Mostly everyone in my class fell over except a few.The only reason why i didn't fall over is because i was VERY careful of myself.But it was really enjoyable.Sadly it was only once.I wish it was every week... 

It was a life time opportunity! 
how was your ice skating experience?      

Kakapo contracts!

In kakapo class we do contracts! contracts are tasks but we get to choose what we should do.We have can dos and must dos,but must dos come first because they are important tasks.We get 8 task sometimes more or less.We have to try the best of our ability to finish our contracts with level 3 or level 4 standard.We have been doing contracts for quiet some time.We get a range of tasks,but they all relate to learning even if its art we normally find facts about an artist who is famous for art.Contracts are a privilege and i love it! i can not wait till future contracts!
