CARE Award - Gold Respect Award - Stan Walker

Today I was focusing on my Gold Care Award. I did one of my Respect task. The task was to research Stan Walker's song Climb. In the DLO above I have told you some information about the song climb and facts about Stan Walker. I have listed Stan Walker's albums. My best album is Inventing myself. I think you should listen to the song. 

Career - Aeroplane Pilot

This week we are focusing on Careers. We are searching about what we wanna be in the future. Last week we had to write the difference between Careers and Jobs. Careers is something you wanna be for the rest of your life and a job is when you do something to earn money to pay your bills. For example my Career is to be a pilot. I want to work in a pizza shop to earn money to pay my uniform for being a pilot. Working in a pizza shop is a job because it's not something I would want to work for during my whole life. This week we are choosing our career and writing about the job. The DLO above shows you some information about being a Aeroplane Pilot. 

Flextangle

This week is maths week. In LS2 we have been making Flextangle and Hexaflexagon. My favourite part of making our Flextangle was colouring it. After colouring it we had to fold it and scoring the lines that was shown. After that we had to make into a Flextngle. The picture above shows you the Flextangle I have made. I think next time I could fold and score my lines more carefully.

Tech - Digital Tech

Today at tech was spectacular. We had to finish off our animated story about Healthy Living in the Tamaki Community. I made a animated story about a girl who exercise by playing soccer. I think making animated stories is awesome.

Galloping Greyhounds

This week for maths we were given a maths problem. We needed to find common denimiators to work these fraction problems. Tiava and I work together to solve the problem. After solving the problem we had to pick one of the questions we were solving in the maths problem and blog it. The DLO above shows you how much money would a trainer make if the greyhound came first, second or third.

Rewindable Learning

Today for dance we were rewinding our dance that we did yesterday with Zoe ( dance teacher). We were each split into three groups and each had a song which was Stay'n Alive, I See Red, and Footloose. We each performed our dance we did yesterday to our classmates. We rewinded our dance evaluation and practised it again and again. I was in the Stay'n Alive group. We did well because we worked as team. We performed move by move. We got some good feedback from our teachers. I liked I See Red because they use most of their feet to dance. I think dance today was outstanding.

'A' or 'An'

Today we were learning when to use a and when to use an before a word. If a word begins with a vowel (a-e-i-o-u) or a silent h for example I want an apple for morning tea or I want an ukulele to play with. When we use a we use it for words beginning with all the other words except for the vowels. The DLO above shows you what we use 'an' or 'a' for. I have also included pictures.
