Novel Study

For the past 3 weeks Te Ngahere have been doing novel studies. We had to choose a book. The book I chose was Arohanui. We also got to pick a task to do. I did a map. With a map you had to draw a picture showing what the story looks like.  

Energize

In Te Ngahere we learnt about takeaways and how takeaways affect your health. We learnt about healthy hearts and unhealthy hearts. We learnt by eating to much takeaways your heart will have too much fat on it and you could catch a heart disease or even die. Now I know not to eat so much takeaways. Whaea Gina started to show us takeaways that were good for us and bad for us. The ones that Whaea Gina recommended for us are Subway, Sushi, and Lamb kebab. Some of the bad ones are Mcdonald's, KFC, Carl's jr, and Fish and Chips.

Projects

For the past few weeks Te Ngahere have been doing our pallet projects. We had to be in groups of 3s. My friends were in my group Tk, and Lesane. We decided to make a tray. We dismantled the pallet, then we denailed the planks that we got off the pallet, We then sanded it. After we sanded the planks of wood we wanted we then had to measure it. After you measure it you can start to build whatever your project is.   

Goals

This week in Te Ngahere we had a choice on what to write about so we could check it and find out what out next goals are. First we had to mark our writing to identify what rubric we were. Then we had to mark it red on the hand in sheet so the teachers could mark it. I wrote a recount about a crash that I had when I was little. I think i did well with vocab and next time I could use more punctuation.  Link

Last week in Te Ngahere we wrote a descriptive piece of writing describes the bush. Our learning intention was to use the correct structure to describe a Moment in time. I really enjoyed describing the forest. Next time i could use a bit more descriptive words and verbs. Link

Last term in Te Ngahere we had to write a explanation about a healthy ecosystem. We had to include Consumers, Decomposers, producers, organic and inorganic matter. I think i did well with the order of it. Next time I could work on getting it finished in time.  

Explanation Writing

Last term in Te Ngahere we made animations. My animation had grass, cow, and human. I liked working with my buddy to complete our animation. What I also liked that it was digital, simple and easy. I think i did well is presenting and screen castifying it. There was a bit of humour but not that much. What I could had of improved on was adding a bit more humor.
