Winter Sport

WHAT: I have been involved in weekly winter sport in 2016

SO WHAT: I play netball in the 5/6 A team. So far we have had only one win but all our loses have been really close and have mostly been with in 5 points difference. In our previous game we lost 11 - 15 against Paproa st which is a lot better than I thought we would get considering one of our tallest players hurt herself right before we left. I think I have improved on sticking to the player I am marking

NOW WHAT:  I think I need to improve in not contacting when I play.

Habitat Art/writing

WALT: Describe different habitats in New Zealand and species that live in them.

SO WHAT: for our habitat art we had to use a mix of collage, water paints, pens and pencils. I chose to do freshwater for my habitat. I used paint to create my sky and water,  for my backg Lund I used pen and pencil and for my foliage, sun, rocks and animals I used collage.

NOW WHAT: next time if I tried again I would like to make it more simple and maybe use a different habitat.

Here is a photo of my art

WHAT: I have been involved in the C.A.R.E values

Habitats

WHAT: We have been reading about Habitats

SO WHAT: My group has been reading about the desert habitat and I have learnt that some deserts are freezing cold and and most people live in huts made of animal skin called yurts and a place called Death Valley can reach up to 57 degrees Celsius.

NOW WHAT: I wonder how animals could live there

Habitats and Species

WHAT: We have been learning about habitats and species

SO WHAT: What changes do I need to make to protect habitats and species? I have learnt that orcas have belly buttons. 

NOW WHAT: 

How long does it take for animals to migrate to a water source?

Why are some animals born deaf/blind?

How often do sandstorms happen?

Hey do spiders have more than two eyes?

ANZAC Day

WHAT: We have been learning about ANZAC day and WAR.

So what: In room ten we have been learning about ANZAC day. We have been learning about what they had to eat, what they used as weapons, what woman did for war and we have also done some activities around the War subject.

Now what: I would like to know if anyone that survived war is still alive

Writing

WHAT: I have been involved in a range of writing experiences.

SO WHAT: This year for writing we have been given lots of opertunities to write about so many things. We have written camp letters to the parent helpers, multiple sets of instructions, using cards to write about things like your favourite animal to writing about what you want to be. We also have a awesome writing system that allows us to write whatever we want.

NOW WHAT: My next step is to get better at writing for certain audiences
