We updated our goals from Term 1 in this Term (term 4) I have achieved my Religious,Learning disposition goals and my academic goal. But I need to work on my Social goal which is helping other kids with their problems by being a peer mediator. Here are my updated goals.
We wrote to the Gisborne Herald for a competition for children to writes 2 or more sentences about what Christmas means to them. We wrote how its about that Christmas is not just about receiving but giving to the one's we love it's also about celebrating when Jesus' was born.
What Christmas means to me...
It's that time of year when presents are given and received, when Jesus was born our savior our king, It's a time to spend with our whanui, to celebrate to give to ones we love.
To share some kai, to share some love, It's a joyous season of the year which we celebrate with everyone and share the christmas fun! Merry Christmas everyone!
Today we have been doing our November Reflection to reflect on our learning from this month. I found it easy and enjoyed doing the November selfie and explain what we did at camp. I found it challenging to find a math problem. My digital learning object shows that I can reflect on my learning. Here is my reflection.
Here is the second one I have done. I enjoyed this one more because it is more intrecide. I found it challenging to fill in all the tiny spaces because there was so many of them and it was very tiring and a lot of clicking! Next time I would try and copy the original art piece. The original piece is by Vincent Van Gogh. Here is how mine turned out and what the original one looks like.

For cybersmart today we have been learning about the summer learning journey. We had to watch videos on how to use Art Colouring Book and how to download our image and blog. we had to follow the steps without the teachers help. I enjoyed and found it easy to colour my image and follow the steps. I found nothing that challenging. Next time I would choose a different image.
This is the original one by Mohammed Melehi
This week for reading our group has been reading a book called "Camping in the bush" Its about a family going camping and they forget a lot of important thing so they have to make them out of stuff around them.
Our task was to I explain how to make something in steps. Anieke and I explained how to make a fire. It had the instructions in the book which was easy and clear to follow on how to make a solar barbecue which helped us with the layout. I enjoyed and found it easy to explain what you need. I found it challenging to think of what I was going to explain. Here is the GIF Anieke and I made.
Last week we went on a camp to Tui Ridge which is in Rotorua. we are writing thank you letters to the people who helped make this camp possible. I chose Tracy, our groups adult and Sione's mum.
My favourite activity was the Flying fox. The flying fox was not only fun but it was amazing and it felt relaxing to be above the trees and I can see why its called the flying fox because it really feels like your flying! I found it easy to choose who I was going to write to and to copy and paste it onto my blog. I found it challenging to finish on time. Here is my letter and photo collage.

Dear Tracey,
I am writing this letter to you to say a big thank you for volunteering to come to our school camp at Tui Ridge with us. You have been truly amazing. We wouldn't have been able to do all these activities without your help. We all had an amazing time but you made it even better!
One of my favourite moments at camp was zooming down the flying fox leaning back and letting go of the rope. Miss Hickling ran after me to grab my legs and I got a big wedgie from the harness.
So thank you so much Tracey for being so great to us and helping the teachers look after 70 kids.Your amazing!

Today we have been doing our October Reflection to reflect on our learning this month. I enjoyed and found it easy to take the selfie and write about Camp. I found nothing that challenging. My digital learning object shows that I can reflect on my learning. Here is my reflection.
This week for reading we have been reading "The apple tree dilemma". It's about these siblings who own an apple tree and love it so much until new kids move into that house and claim that its their tree now. They then make up a plan to get them back.We had to create a venn diagram comparing the dad and another character. The dad soon finds out what their plan is and gets very angry!
For my other book character I choose a MEAN and BRUTAL teacher called Mr Large off "The Recruit" ( The book we are reading as a class at the moment). I enjoyed and found it easy to make the venn diagram and choose the colours. I found it challenging to describe Mr Large. My digital learning object show that I can use google drawings and make a venn diagram. Here is my Venn diagram.
Next week the year sixes and fives are going on camp and we made Goals for ourselves. We are going to a place called Tui ridge which is near rotorua, some of the activities we are doing are High ropes, slingshot paintball, Laser tag, rope maze, rock climbing, the luge and gondola. After camp we will update our goals and put something that were proud of. Here are my goals.
For this Pop art we have used a different site called Artnet. There are 3 different Andy warhol filters to choose from Andy Warhol Original, Andy Warhol Variation 1, Andy Warhol Variation 2, which is the one I used. This site is easier to used because Instead of doing separate filters it does that for you.
Today for cybersmart we made Pop art on a site called LunaPic. Its a site were you upload a image and you have lots of different filters to choose from to filter it. The artist who inspired us is Andy Warhol.
I enjoyed and found it easy to upload my image,download it and take my photo. I found it challenging to choose which filter I wanted. My digital learning object shows that i know how to filter a image. Next time I would choose a different filter. The filters I used are called floating,Tattoo,Fantasy and Landscape.
Here is my Pop art.
Today we have been doing our September Reflection to reflect on our learning this month. I enjoyed and found it easy to take the selfie and change fonts and colours. I found it challenging to write about Maara Kai (master chef). My digital learning object shows that I can reflex on my learning. Here is my reflection.
Every month in our class we reflect on our learning from the month just gone. I enjoyed and found it easy to do the reading section, take the photo and do the background. I found it challenging to write the Trivia. Next time I would make the photos for enviroschools bigger. My digital learning object shows that I can reflect on my learning and insert photos on google drawings.
In Room 1 for Matauranga Whakapono (R.E.) we are learning the sacraments of initiation. I found it challenging to find a symbol for the Eucharist. I found it easy to explain the ritual of the Eucharist. Next time I would Write more for the ritual.My digital learning object shows that I Know how to use google slides.
