Bunny/Rabbit masks and research

We are learning about the Zoo animals so I am researching about bunnies and rabbits and what are the differences between wild, feral and domesticated rabbits.

I found it hard to search up some of the activities because I didn't know what to type in the text box.

Next time I would like to learn about a different animal, what is the difference between two types of the same animal. 

Writing Dialogue

We are learning how to use dialogue so we can use it in our stories, we are learning how to use speech marks and other punctuation.

I found it easy to complete this, I use speech marks all the time in my stories so it was very easy.

Next time I would like to learn how to use more dialogue in my speech and in stories.

Camp Adair Trip - LAMN Programme

Eight of my class including me went to camp Adair on a trip for a school programme and it was so fun.

We were learning how to co - operate while working together.

I found it fun to play in the mud and challenge my friends to race in the mud.#

Next time I would like to have more races and go on the mud slide a lot more.

Maori Language Week - Ta Moko

1 . Looked at pictures of ngā To Moko.
2 . Looked at the meaning in the Ta Moko patterns.
3 . Traditionally Ta Moko was made with a chisel.
4 . Ta Moko starts out small and grows.
5 . The females usually only have their chin done. 

6 . Painting a mask with skin colour, or close to it.
7 . Designed out Ta Moko Drew on our Ta Moko onto our mask with vivid.

We are learning how to draw ngā To Moko, by painting masks and using vivids for the design.

I found it a little bit annoying when I was drawing my To Moko because I liked three but I ended up picking this one.

Next time I would like to do different designs and different cultures so and I would really like to do my culture.

The Epic Race.

CLAP! The bangers went off I ran as fast as Usain Bolt. Reremoana was in front of me, suddenly Zaleen passed me I thought to myself, “Oh no Zaleen passed me I need to run faster!!” After a while I passed her. I tried to catch up to Reremoana but she was too fast.

 I got to the hill. “Ugh this hill is so steep I don’t want to run anymore!” I said while moaning. I sprinted to the gates. “GROWL” I thought to myself “What was that noise?!!”

I looked behind me and saw a humongous beast! It had sharp claws, spots everywhere, it had super long whiskers and fluffy fur. I ran as fast as I could but it was no use the beast was too fast. I got to the field and ran all the way to the 2nd paddock then I jumped the obstacles. I saw Reremoana in front of me running to the finishing shoot, the beast was still behind me and it was getting closer and closer. “Clip clop” a Gazelle popped out from behind a tree. The beast chased after the gazelle and suddenly the animal control grabbed the beast.

I tried to catch up to her and at the last minute she tripped, “Ouch it hurts so much!” I thought, “thank god I can finally beat her once and for all!!” I sprinted to the end and got into the final shoot and I won!

 We waited for Miss Castle to call out the year 6 winners and it was finally our turn. “In third place is Zaleen, in second place is Reremoana and in first place is Amelia!” We collected our awards and went back to the gazebos.

Miss Kereopa loudly read out the house points. “Okay so in fourth place was Rimu, in third place was Totara, in second place was Kauri. So the winning house was Pohutukawa!!!” After that we all went back to class for lunch.

We are learning how to write stories on cross country and sometimes use our imagination.
I found it hard to use my imagination and figure out how the animal got away because I dont really like cross country.
Next time I would like to make a better story and use more punctuation, metifors, similies and speech.

Reading - Building For The Future.

I am learning how to use Screencastify while I am reading off the class website.

I found it trickey because the app was not working so I used another chrome book and I finally got it right.

Next time I hope it would be easier and I would like to read more information about the story and what happened.

The New School Buildings in Progress.

We are learning how to be paiteint because we are being cramped with 50 students in one room and we will have to wait for the end of the year.

I am finding it hard to be paiteint because I really really really want to use the new classrooms and so we will have more space to play out side because our space is getting smaller and smaller.

I hope there wont be a next time because I really dont want to wait for another two years for our school to be built.
