Reading task

WALT:Reflect about what we have been doing in reading.

Today we got given a task by Ms aireen,

We had to complete these questions about the story we read yesterday which was called design for good.
I found some of these question challenging because I dident know what the questions mean.The thing I enjoyed was learning about pest in new zealand.

   

Astria-countdown to impact

WALT:Reflect on the game Astria countdown to impact.

Yesterday We started a game called Astria countdown to impact.Ms komor and Ms aireen put us in groups.In my group was Leilani and the game was about A meteor heading to a place called astria and we had to find out what was the best way to stop it.This game was very challenging because we actually had to think about the game and I am not use to games that have a lot of questions.Something I enjoyed was that It was a game that you have to use your reading skills in and you have to remember a lot of stuff.

My critical analysis of a still picture.

WALT:Critically analyse still pictures.

Today after morning tea our class split into two groups on of the groups went to room 9 and the group I was in.My group was looking at 3 pictures and analysing them.Ms aireen wanted us to answer these questions.

These is the picture I chose and her are the questions.

7 Questions

Who took the photo?

How is the subject represented in the photo?

What kinds of messages are being conveyed?

How do different parts of the image contribute to these messages?

What if the photo was taken from a different angle or cropped differently?

Who might the intended audience be?

How might different groups of people respond to the image?

Something I found challenging was trying to think of what was happening the the photos that Ms Aireen showed us.

Something I enjoyed was hearing people's answers to the questions.

Inquiry

 WALT: Reflect about Technological world.

Today for Inquiry we did Technological world. The people I worked with was Tevita,Alo and Fe'ao. The type of technology we did was Cars.We all had to choose one question that Ms Komor wrote.

I chose How cars have changed over time.Here is what I wrote

Cars have changed a lot. The first car was made in 1886 and it only had 0.75 horsepower. Cars these days now have up to 808 horsepower. The first cars that were made had no windshield, doors, turn signals and circle steering wheels. The first cars were powered by a steam engine.

Here is the slide my group made.                                               

  

Maths reflection

WALT:Subtract and multiply decimals.

Today for maths we had a worksheet about maths it was about subtracting and multiplying decimals.I was working with Aumau and Toma we were getting the answers quick.

We  finished one page of the worksheet and now we are on the second page.

Something I enjoyed was working with my buddies because they were very helpful.

Something I found challenging was when I first started this because I dident understand it so I asked my buddies and they helped me.

Inquiry

WALT:Reflect on the morning block

Today we had a visiter and her name was Ms.Treena.

She came and talked to us about people wanting to get rid of the pest in New Zealand because they are endangering our native animals.She showed us a person named nature watcher and he said that the pest in new Zealand should be respected.

Then we had to write a opinion to see if disagreed or agreed.

The thing I found challenging was trying to make my comment positive. 

This is my comment I wrote.

Today we went to The Sylvia Park Hoyts. First we had to go to room 5 to buddy up with the room 5 students.My buddy was kingston.The schools that presented today was St Pius, Tamaki Primary School, Pt England, and others. The movie that I liked the most was  Room 6 from tamaki primary it was about telling people to be kind.This movie was funny thats why I liked it
