Description: This is one of my tic, tac, toes that I had to do. This ones about images and what the image means, so I put down what I thought of the image below means. :)

I think it tells you that if you make a mistake then you can still turn it into something good or even great! Check out the video below!!!

Man just gets away from shark!

This incredible Australian surfer (Mick Fanning) survived the heart stopping shark attack, in south Africa in a competition. Someone from the other team tried to save him and in his interview he said, “I was swimming to him and then i saw him getting pulled under the water, then I new I couldn't do any thing anymore” Then in  Mick Fannings interview he said “I felt something grab my leg and pull me so I kicked it and punched it and then for a few seconds I was under the water” Then a rescue team went out and pulled him up, luckily he is ok and nothing hurting.

ET Reo

Description:This year we have been doing something called ET Reo so far we have been learning lunchbox foods like (Āporo/apple) the line on top of the a is a macron, and with the macron you say the letter longer like Aaaporo.

Big Idea:
We had to learn some sentences and they were in maori do you like Āporo/ Apple then we would say in maori no. Or yes.

Criteria:

To make a video of us saying the sentences to each other.

Feedback/Feedforward: I think Katie did good at pronouncing the words but I think you could of done better at keeping her voice needs to be a little more talking like then shouting. By Bridget

Evaluation: I think I did well with my video and that it was clean but I need to practise my words because I had to do a lot of videos. But apart from that I think I did well.

Writing

Description: My goal in writing has been to write conjunctions I am getting better at conjunctions by adding on some good sentence start like, So,ing and nor. I aim to complete this goal by the end of term 3. Here is my plans and writing.



Big idea:

Feedback/Feedforward: Good work Katie I think you did a great job on your story but I think next time you can add more of an interduction and explain more about the characters. But other than that I loved your story. - Hannah P:)

Evaluation: I think I did well with my story but I could improve a bit with my punctuation. But apart from that I think I did well. :)

New NZ flag

Description: Every country in the worlds flag has a connection to its past, history and culture. I had to Post this picture on my blog and then connect it to me the world or another text.

This is my picture:
I picked this one because it reminded me of when I saw the silver fern's one's.
The colours reminded me of my mum because one of her favourite colours is red and blue makes me feel safe.
And the stars show me a beautiful stary night.

Strategy Maths

Description:This term we have been doing strategy maths, like subtraction and plus. We have this thing called a maths strategy passport, it helps us with some strategy's we could use later. Our task was to have a sheet of paper with prises with rebel sport items and we four questions and because I'm a stage five I have to do at least one good answer.

This is my work.

Big Idea:
I split my number up in to 100's 10's and 1's then I plus'ed the all together.
For example.
122+234=
100+200=300
+ 350
20+30=50
+355
2+3=5
_____________

Feedback/Feedforward: You have made a really detailed poster. I love your thinking that you have done and how you have shown your strategies. I think you could go further and do 2 strategies for each one even though you are in stage 5. I think you are a great learner. Great Job Katie. Rosalind:)

Self Evaluation: I think my maths work is good but next time I want and think I should do more than one strategy.
