Matariki☆

Matariki!

Kia ora fishies🐟

Today I'm going to talk about the Matariki activities I did. Matariki is the Māori new year, where they harvest crops, fly kites and share food with each other. The syndicate did 3 rotations first was making fried bread with Mrs Jones only using self raising flour and water! 

We also did stop motion with Miss Daly, we had to create a scene or a Māori legend using play dough and colored paper then we filmed it. The last activity was making kites with Miss Law, we had to get stripes of white, black and red to draw Māori patterns using crayons or pastels. There were also helpers who made small kites to hand around the rooms. I loved celebrating Matariki it was really fun!

Cross Country!

Cross Country 2020!

Talofa fishies🐟!

 Thursday  the 2nd of July in week 12 the whole school had to participate in cross country, parents could come to! At 11:15 everybody had to get in their year groups on the court, then Ms Sands announced all the activities and what we were going to do. The first thing my group did was relaxing, we went under the tree and played on the playground. We also played fun games like jenga and ring toss! After we had done all the activities we played duck duck goose and did warm ups for the race. While we were warming up we had to cheer for the year 4 that were running. It was the year 5's turn the boys started first and the girls went 2nd. The top 5 girls and boys go to cross country zones but only the years 4-6. I came 5th place out of the girls! 

 

Proudest Blue Response!

Proudest Blue Response!

Hey Fishies🐟

Today I'm going to talk about the Proudest Blue response I did in week 10! In my reading group we read a book called "The Proudest Blue!" Then we had to smurf a google doc called Group response-proudest blue, once we smurfed it we had to fill in the boxes like what we liked about the book and what we didn't like. I loved doing the group response because I got to write down what I liked about it and something I would change! I liked that the little sister tried to defend her big sister! But I didn't like how the little sister would count her steps.

Here's the link to my work😜: Link

Reading Activity

Reading Activity

Hello Fishies🐟

I'm going to talk about my reading activity I did! For my reading activity, I read an article about worldwide protests. Then I made a poster saying something like "Color doesn't matter" as a worldwide message. I also had to draw around the words and color it in. I made my words 3D and drew earth and some balloons in mine! I loved doing this activity because I got to create my own poster! The words I wrote were "Color doesn't matter, we are all the same" and I'm sure somebody has already wrote that phrase. My reading goal is evaluating and I got to practice that while reading the article.

Hoped you liked reading my blog, bye fishies🐟 

Creative Writing!

Creative Writing

Kia ora fishes🐟! Today I am going to be talking about my creative writing I started in week 7! To do this we had to choose an image from a slideshow then we made a new doc and wrote about it. We had to make sure there were no spelling mistakes and we looked at simple, compound and complex sentences! I didn't use a compound sentence in my writing, all the simple and complex sentences were highlighted in orange! My story is about a child who gets captured by a witch!  

Here is the link why don't you read it?😝:

Lockdown Creations

Hey fishies🐟! Today I will be talking about our lockdown creations! You will be asking what is a lockdown creation? A lockdown creation is a google slide with all the days if the week in it and were made by our teachers! In the lockdown creation we had to choose 3 things that we did on that day and write them down. We had to put a picture and a brief description, at the end of the day we will have to do a daily reflection on how our day was. I was tired because We had 4 lockdown creations we had to do!

Hoped you enjoyed reading, bye!
