Our Kiwi Can Lesson

 W.A.L.T upload a post showing what we learnt in Kiwi Can today

Today we had Kiwi Can. Our focus for today was respect.  The games that we played today to learn how to respect were called Snap, Crackle, Pop second was So, ma, ca, lo and the last was GKQ. 

How did I show respect today? I showed respect by not calling my team mates slow or losers.

What did I enjoy? I enjoyed encouraging my team mates and them encouraging me.

What could I improve on? I could improve on training to get faster so I could win a lot more than usual.

Have you ever played one of these games before?

Pools Session Trip

On Tuesday we went to Te punawai-Ora pools to have a snorkelling session. Soon as we arrived all of us put on our wet suits, masks and flippers. Soon as we got changed we got into groups of two also we grabbed one of the body boards too. We got in the pool next we had to swim head down and eyes looking forward but I got told to not put my head all the way down looking at the floor. When our session was complete we went back to school we started to get going. It was new for me because I haven't gone snorkelling before in a long time. What did I learn? I learnt a lot of things about snorkelling that I can't even name. What did you enjoy? I enjoyed learning how to dive and learning how to hold my breath while wearing a snorkel. Have you ever gone snorkelling at the Te punawai-Ora pools?  

 

KiwiCan

W.A.L.T write about an activity that we do in the morning called kiwi can.

Kiwi can is an activity that we do in the morning. Its where we play fun games down in the hall. Also we have a word that means something and we have to try show those meanings. So the word that were working on is accountability. And we also have a catch praise. The catch praise goes like this. We are honest, we are true, we take ownership for what we do. Any way These are the games we played. The first was high tide low tide next one was impossible connection last was GKQ. If your wondering what GKQ means it means General Knowledge Questions. These games were fun, hard to understand but I got use to the instructions.

What did I find challenging?   Hearing the kiwi can members ask questions and speaking. What could I improve on? I could improve on not being shy to dance around my surroundings. 

Do you have kiwi can at your school? Do you like kiwi can? 

My Math Task

 My Maths Task. I.A.L.T upload one of our tasks from last week or this week.

Today for our math task we worked on division and fractions. It was confusing a little but when I got into them they were very easy. 

What did you enjoy?  Do you know what division means? 

My Geometric Art.

 W.A.L.T upload our geometric art and write about it. 

This task was fun, however, it was frustrating when my hand wasn't balanced when I was trying to draw those straight lines. Here are the instructions how to make one down below.

1. Draw an animal that you like.

2. Rub out the curved lines and use a ruler to straighten them.

3. Find a black felt and outline the lines.

4. Colour the animal in with any coloured felts you want as you can see I went with light blue, black and grey.

Now your done. You can show your mum and dad or even your friends.

What did I enjoy? I enjoyed colouring it in.

What did I do well? I think I did well in drawing the straight lines.

What could I improve on? I could improve on colouring it in more.

My Comma PowerPoint.

 W.A.L.T upload a learning task from last week or today on our blogger.

 We started this task last week. The task was to make a power point, quiz or an animation about commas. Me and my partner named Dash made a power point. Here it is down below.    

What did I enjoy?  I enjoyed decorating the slide when it was complete.

What did you do well? I did well in writing the examples for our writing.

What could I improve on? I could improve on helping my team mate when he couldn't spell some complicated words.

My Basic Facts.

I.A.L.T upload my basic facts and write about them.

These are my basic facts that I have practised while I have been at my house with my mum and dad.
A few weeks ago, we started our first basic facts cards. I was on 2 times by the time but today I moved up to 6 time tables. I'm going to practice and practice until I get better. It was easier than usual but it was easy for everyone so there was nothing to be excited about. I enjoyed ticking my answers. I could have improved on practising my tables more too.
