This week my teacher gave me a link to play a game called rags to riches, it is a game where you can answer some questions and find out if maybe you can win 1 million dollars, I got up to 64,000 dollars, the questions were about simple, complex and compound sentences, if your confused a simple sentence is a sentence that has a noun and a verb like for example: the cat sat on the mat.
I enjoyed this activity because I love challenges.
Today me and my group’s task was to talk about what we heard, saw, felt and wondered of us walking up the mountain, which was to compare all of that to our work which is in a DLO. What I liked about this activity was about talking about our maunga/mountain.
I enjoy this activity because I want to improve my learning on trying to compare myself to other people.
Today me and my group’s task was to watch a video of a man hiding from a polar bear, and comparing it with ourselves of what would we hear, see, feel and think, only if that was us in the video hiding from the polar bear. What I liked about this activity was that we would get to share the things of what we would hear, see, feel and think.
I enjoy this activity because of learning how to compare other peoples adventures and journeys to myself.
Today our task was to make a DLO of sound focus, which we are focusing on the sounds of the vowels, there are two differents types of sounds of the vowels, the short vowels and the long vowels, the long vowels sounds say the letters name while the short vowels sounds say the sounds of the letter. I liked this activity because of learning more about the vowels and the sounds of it.
I enjoy this activity because I like finding out about new words, sounds and sounds of vowels.
Today our task was to write down our pepeha. My pepeha tells many things about myself and my family, (a pepeha is something that introduces you in maori), I like writing down pepeha’s because it helps a lot with my blogs and that it helps introducing myself.
I enjoy this activity because it includes about me and my culture.
Today I made a pencil case design with my group.
First I partnered up with a student named nio to make a pencil case.
Next we decorated it, bought it on sale which it only costs 1 token, the whole class was told that we can get only 5 tokens to buy something from the other classrooms, which means the whole school got 5 things by using 5 tokens from each other classrooms, which there was free ice blocks, pet rocks, spinners, friendship bracelets, bookmarks, pencil cases, play dough, and slime.
Lastly before we went to our class we got free ice blocks and we came back to our classroom, and started our blog post.
I enjoyed making a pencil case. I did well using my tokens wisely. I need to improve myself on designing.
Today I learned about adverstisement.
