First Lesson In Graphics

Today at graphics we created a google drawing called all about me. In this google draw I put images of what I like to do and some of my favorite brands. I used my research skills to find transparent images. To make the cartoon image of me I used the avatar maker site. In graphics our goal is to make a 3D printed mobile phone holder.

The Treaty of Waitangi

Today our focus in reading was the treaty of waitangi. My reading group read a book called the pathway. It was about how the treaty of waitangi came to be. Ofa, Sky, Joseph and I found the 20 most important words from the story. Then we found the 6 most important words out of the 20 most important words. Using those words we wrote a short summary of the story.

Morning Routine

1. Shower

Morning Routine

Every morning I repeat my morning routine. During the school week my morning routine
stays the same. I get out of bed take a shower, eat breakfast and leave.
As much as I want to I don’t take long showers because I have to get to school on time.

Every morning I get out of bed and the first thing I do is take a warm shower.
I have a five minute shower so I won’t be late for school. After my shower I get into
my uniform and put on my badges. After that I go to the kitchen for my breakfast.

When I get to the kitchen my breakfast will already be prepared.
For breakfast I usually have two pieces of toast or a bowl of cereal.
With my breakfast I enjoy a nice hot cup of tea. After my breakfast
I brush my teeth, then make my lunch.

For my lunch I try to keep it simple.
I usually just have a bag of chips, a muesli bar, mandarin and Le Snak.
I always try to have a piece of fruit in my lunch. After I have finished
packing my lunch I leave for school.

When it is pouring rain I get a ride from my mom but If it is sunny I just walk to school.
I enjoy walking to school because walking helps your body to be more healthier.
I always walk the same way to and from school with my little sister.
The morning routine is always the same and it is repeated from Monday to Friday.

Today for writing we were working on writing an explanation. I choose to write about my morning routine. After writing my explanation I had a classmate proof read it. I also made sure to DRAFT my work to make sure it had language features and made sense.

Winter Olympics Mascots

Today my group and I were learning about the winter Olympic mascots that have been picked throughout the year. The current mascot for the 2018 winter Olympics is Soohorang, which a white tiger from South Korea. My group and I found another winter Olympics mascot from 2006. We choose Neve & Gliz. Jericho, Harlem and I decided to compare the two mascots to find the similarities and the differences.

Winter Olympics Comparison

Today for inquiry we were learning about the 1924 winter Olympics and the modern Olympics. Once we finished researching about them we made a Venn diagram. Harlem, Jericho and I wrote down the differences and the similarities between the 1924 and modern winter Olympics.

Blog Post Analysis

Today I made a graph recording the blog post I did throughout the years. I made an analysis and explained the reasons why I had that many post during that year. Throughout the years my blog post have gone up except 2018 because it was our first day back at school. For this activity the focus was to carry out a statistical inquiry.

Can you guess what I did over the holidays?

Over the holidays I have done many things and one of them were going to the beach. I described my trip using only seven sentences. I wrote a recount of what I heard, seen, felt and wondered. I tried to describe my trip without giving to much detail. In my writing I used language features like personification and similes.
