Writing Sentences in a Variety of Ways.

My Reflection.

I was learning how to write interesting sentences using add ons, lead ins, in-betweens and mains.

I found this work easy because I knew how to write about it and put add ons, lead ins, in-betweens and mains in my writing.  Next time I do this work I will try add more detail in

my writing.

Decimal place value

My special place.

Reflection

I was learning to describe my special place and how it is in my point of view.

I found this work easy because I know my special place and how to describe it.

I enjoyed this because it was really fun and interesting and I haven't done this kind of work before.

Next time I want to describe my special place in more interesting words.

My Reflection

This learning shows my special place writing.

Natural Disaster Brainstorm

Reflection

I have been learning to summarise and record my research in my own words.

I found summarising the information into my own words challenging 

because there are a few words that was really tricky to replace.

I found this work interesting because you learn how to be prepared for a natural disaster.

I learnt that the ash from a volcano gets into your lungs it turns into a cement-like paste 

and makes it impossible to breath. I found this helpful for my narrative because if there was a natural

disaster we would be prepared and know what to expect.

My next step is to look into more research to learn more about a natural disaster and the damage

it can do.I had fun doing this work and it wouldn't be a problem to do this kind of work again.       

Fractions of a Set

Reflection 

I was learning to explain what a unit fraction and a multiple fractions are.

I found this work easy because I know what a multiple and unit fractions are.

Next time I can try be more clearer about how I explain what they are.   

My Pepeha Art

REFLECTION.

This is my draft of my Pepeha. I was learning how to say where I come from in Maori.  

I found this work easy because I am part maori.

Next time I am going to try and put more detail. 

Leslie Burke

Reflection.

I was learning to write an obituary for the character Leslie Burke.

I found this challenging because I have never written in that kind of style before.

I enjoyed doing it because it was really interesting and I kind of enjoy a challenge.

Next time I will try fit in more about her family not just her.  

Name art

My Reflection.

This evidence shows my name art.

We did this because we fought it would be a really good way to show our name.

I found this work tricky because we needed to 

learn how to draw concentric  circles.

I also found it challenging to colour it in

because my arm got really tired.

Next time I do this kind of work I am going

to try make my work darker so it stands out more.  

Comparing characters

My Reflection.

In this evidence we had to do a ven diagram

about comparing characters.

While we were  doing this work 

I thound this work easy because I have

seen the moive and now we are reading the book.

Next time we do this sort of thing I want to challenge myself

to put more words in the middle 

making & breaking 20

My reflection.

I was learning that numbers can be made and broken up in lots of different ways. 

 I found this work interesting because I know lots of different equations. 

 My next step is to challenge myself by using brackets and different strategise. 

My Kennings poem

My reflection.

This is my kennings poem.

I was learning how to write a kennings poem.

First we had to write down things we liked.

Then we had to put them in a sentence with 3 words in it.

The first word had to star with a.

I thought this poem was fun to write but it was difficult at times.

I found it a bit difficult because it was hard to different endings.

I think I could of made it more challenging by doing more interesting words.

My Did You Ever Poem.

My reflection

This is my did you ever poem.

I was learning how to write a did you ever poem. 

I found this work easy because I followed the

 instructions and

under stood them.

While I was writing my did you ever poem it felt

straight ford but I could of used some more

 interesting verbs.

Next time I want to challenge myself by using 

more interesting

words.
