Cry of the Taniwha Prejudice Example




My Reflection.

During the term we have been reading a book Cry of the Taniwha.
In this evidence we were learning to write about what the character is like on the outside and  what the character is like on the inside (things people don't know about them).I found this work easy because I knew what my thoughts were at the beginning of the novel and my thoughts at the end. My next step is to try add more interesting words to explain a characters personality.

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.
