Maths

On Thursday room 12 did maths. The porohita's are learning to use our 5 time tables to solve our 6 7 and eights and using our 10s to solve our 9s. Before I didn't understand but now I understand way better an example would be 7x7 you would split the7 to into 5 and 2 and the other 7 you would split into 4 and 3. So then you would go 5x7 then 2 x 7 plus them together and the answer is 49

Maori language week

Last week team 12 celebrated Maori Language Week.  We have buddies in room 4.  We made a body quiz for them.  We also learnt a Maori body song, it's really cool.  Then we had to teach them the song.  After that  we had to tell them what the name in English was.  Last but not lest we asked them where it was on their body.  I really enjoyed doing Maori but it was quit easy because I am part Maori and I know a bit about Maori Language

Term 3

This Term I am looking forward  to Wacky Olympics, Cross Country and Soccer.  I would like to improve on my Writing there four getting my pen licence.  I would also like to improve on my Reading.  One thing I want to do is get our 20 marbles so that we can do something cool.  

Speeches

About two weeks ago room 12 did speech's  I  did my speech on Alexander Fleming he discovered penicillin.  I think I did well on my eye contact.  Next time I need to do more walking around and more expression.  I got into the semi finals with 2 others, Melissa and  Emily.  Sadly I did not make it to the finals.  That's OK because I tried my best.  I really enjoyed speeches it was really fun:)

Maths

For the last 2 weeks the porohita's have been learning how to add and take away on a number line. The strategy is  a bit hard. We did a test on this strategy I did not get much right, but that's OK because I tried my best and that's the main thing isn't it.  This strategy was very fun but I hope I get more answers right next time.  An example would be 35 + 17 =52  so I would jump to 45 then 55 then I would take away 3 because  you are at 55 and you have to be at 52.  35+ 17 =52.

Team 12's Assembly

Last week my class team 12 had our Assembly.  It was very fun. My roles were a host and a Gallipoli landing troop. You have no clue how scared I was.  I was shaking like an erupting volcano but I'm stilll alive anyway getting back to our assembly.  My favourite part was when the soliders were training, the soliders
  had to listen to the sargents yell at them.   After our Assembly we got a yummy cupcake. I enjoyed our assembly it was so much fun.

Remembrance

 For about 2 weeks now room12 have been learning about Remembrance.  For example one thing that has to do with remembrance is ANZAC.  We have been learning lots about ANZAC it is very interesting for me.  We have also been learning some Gallipoli slang and  I think an example is in war they call a smoke a smoko and lots more.  We also made some wreaths  the poppy's represent ANZAC and the soldiers who died at war  we made them with a group.  We needed to draw some Poppy's then we cut them out and glued the Poppy's on the wreaths.  I loved doing remembrance I hope  I get to do it again.
