time to reflect on our year

It Is time to reflect on our year

It has been a great 3 terms with our fantastic teacher Miss Waho and our amazing Rimu class. We have had an awesome year with literacy,numeracy and many other things. We had a great Pasifika performance. It was one of the biggest moments of the year. In Term One we had two student teachers their names were Miss Barr and Stacey. Miss Barr did some crayon rubbing art. It was a really fun thing because we got to design what we wanted to draw. Here is a photo of it. 

In Term Two we had another student teacher called Miss Tapuke. She taught us some Samoan songs. Here is the link to them.
O Le Pepe       Le aute  
In Term Three we were learning about the Olympics. We did a matrix. It had alot of different activities on that we could do independently.We also went Skiing as a whole senior hub. It was one of the best trips ever!
I am looking forward to finishing our art and doing our big Kapahaka performance.
My goals for the term are to improve keyboard skills so I can improve my writing. I would also really like to improve my Maori language.

Food For Thought

Today we had another session of food for thought. We were learning how much sugar, fat and sodium are in fizzy drinks.  We also lookd on the back of cereal boxes and saw how much fat, sugar,sodium,dietary fibre and energy.The cereals that you should eat every day are weet bix and rolled oats.  You should start drinking coffee when you are 25 because before you are 25 you are still producing calcium to make your bones stronger. Children should  be having only 5 teaspoons of sugar a day!
here is a drawing of what you should eat that is healthy and what is not.

here are some of the  drinks that you should not drink and some that you should like water .

Last week we went to Mount Hutt for a ski trip. We had to write a recount about it and then screencastify it. Here is my story that is screencastfied.   

This is my screencastify of the Ski trip. I like my writing because I have used a rang of punctuation and lots of language features like adverbs. The adverb that I used was skiing because that is a doing word because that is what I was doing. Next time I am going to use some more commas so my paragraphs can be a bit longer.

Caring for others

caring for others

caring for others is helping them if they get hurt and if they are upset. you don't have to be friends you can just do it.  don't do it for gifts do it for love and kindness.  appreciate what you get and what you do.you create kindness by caring and appreciate how you are treated. 

 I have learnt to be a great person that cares. you have to show how much you care to care.

Being friendly

FRIENDLY

Being friendly is about being nice and treating people the way you want to be treated as well as using your manners and speaking nicely.Be friendly to anyone around you. You could be treated nicely back. 





I have now learnt how to be friendly. You can be friendly to everyone but that doesn't mean you have to be friends with them.
