Best Sleepover Activity

sos activity -->

At room 28/29's sleepover my favourite activity was the team exercise. You had to create a skit, song or dance about the theme civil defence 'Get Ready Get Thru'. This was my favourite activity because it involved lots of creativity, imagination and thinking all at the same time, also this was run by my mum!!! At first my team was struggling with ideas, we all thought we had no creative juices. We started to share some ideas, but we still found it hard. My mum told us there was some pretty good teams and it is pretty hard to beat. So our leader (Brylee) decided we would do all three things a song, dance and a skit! I thought this would be impossible with the amount of time we had left. We got a few ideas then gave up again! We decided to do just a skit. We did a funny skit about an earthquake evacuation. It was short but sweet! The most surprising thing was we made a skit that could of really happened in an earthquake. The funniest thing was creating ideas. In the end we only got a 3.5, but I wasn't surprised neither was my group, but we had so much fun!

Phoebe's Multiplication Strategies


Reflection:

I found the place value strategy easy because I know how to split numbers easily. I found this helpful because I learnt some new strategies.

Next time I will practise using some of these strategies to work out harder problems e.g. compensation.

Phoebe's 'City Of Ember' Tagul


Reflection:
This term our class has been reading a novel called The City Of Ember. I have created a light bulb with key words inside and I created it on a website called Tagul https://tagul.com/cloud/1. In the book they live in a poor city and have never been into the outside world and may not even know there is an outside world. I found this easy because I can identify key words in the book easily. I found this hard trying to remember some of the more complex words from the story. Next time I could add a few more wow words.

My Holiday Poems



Reflection:

These are my holiday poems. I write these about my trip to Rotorua New Zealand. I found this easy because I could remember my trip really well. I found this hard because it was a bit tricky remembering to add in my 5 senses . Next time I could use more of my 5 senses.

Daffodil Diamante Poem



  
Reflection:
I am learning to write a diamante poem. In this I described a daffodil and a bulb.  The thing I found easy was, thinking of the adjectives, nouns and verbs to put in. I learnt a lot about daffodils and the bulb which the daffodil grows out of.  I think I don't have much to work on next time.

My Volcano Art


Reflection:
This is my volcano art. The thing I found easy was cutting out the volcano. The hard bit was painting the sky and blending the colours. I think I don't have much to work on.
