SLJ- Teaser Week| Activity 1- The Social Network

For this activity, I had to think about what I've learned about Cybersmart and write 5 rules when posting a photo or a video on social media. Something I found hard was choosing the 5 rules when posting a photo or a video. Something I found easy was doing the layout. Something I need to work on would be putting more pictures in the poster to make it more eye catching.

SLJ- Teaser Week|Week 1- Day 1

For the activity, we had to find out information about Lorde who is a New Zealand singer. Her first song was called 'Royals' We had to make her a profile page as our infographic poster for the activity.

What I enjoyed: Was being able to be creative for the layout of the poster.
What I need to work on: Get more facts down on the poster.
What I found hard: Getting the poster done in 10 minutes.

SLJ Practice Activity: Special Meals

My favourite meal is something called "Sinigang" it is a Filipino dish. Sinigang is one of the most popular dishes from the Philippines! Sinigang is known for its sour and savoury taste. Sinigang can be made with Pork, Beef or Fish. Sinigang is better if paired with rice. I like it because of its sour and savoury flavour.

Waterspouts

This week my group has been reading a text called 'How a Waterspout forms' and we had to unpack a sentence from the text together. Some of the things I've learned from the text is; There are five stages to a waterspout, what a waterspout is, a waterspout is, waterspouts are common in the tropics etc.
For our infographic, we had to put what we know about waterspouts to teach others if they don't know what a waterspout is.

What I found hard: Tracing the waterspout.
What I found interesting: How waterspouts work and what they are.
What I need to work on: Finishing my work on time.

Dunking Biscuits

In Room 6 we have been learning about fair testing. We learnt new phrases such as; Hypothesis,  Variables etc. A hypothesis is a prediction for your experiment and a variable is something you could change in your experiment. We had to come up with our own experiment with groups of two or three. My buddy was Lachlan and we chose to do "Dunking Biscuits" We had to plan our experiment in a doc where we included what we would change, what we would keep the same so our experiment would be 'fair' and what we would measure.

For this experiment, we had to dunk different types of biscuits in coffee and see which biscuit is the strongest. The different types of biscuits we had were; Arrowroots, Sugar Biscuits, Choc-chip cookies, Scotch fingers, Anzac biscuits and Raisin Biscuits. Our time set was 1 minute and 30 seconds and if it goes over that, we have to stop it. For the results, we had Arrowroots, Scotch Fingers, Sugar Biscuits and Raisin Biscuits as our best.

Our next step was to make our science boards showing our results, measurements, pictures, graphs, etc. We were free to do what type of lettering we wanted and to be creative with our boards.

What I enjoyed: Doing the lettering for our boards as well as deciding what the layout would look like.
What I found frustrating: How I can't change what I put up if I don't like where its placed because we used a glue stick to put it up.
What I can work on: Going in depth with the writing in our boards.

My Mihi

WALT:

-Find and summarise information by identifying key words and main ideas.
-make connections between different texts.
-use evidence(words, phrases and illustrations) from the text to justify my thinking.
-make a judgement after evaluating information from range of texts.
-Use keywords to work out what the hidden meaning is.

For Maori Language week, we made a game to represent our mihis. We had to put our parents' names, our names, our mountain etc. We had to find out codes to make our game work and find out what our mountains are, our rivers etc.

What I found hard: Was figuring out the codes
What I need to work on: Finding out what my mountain is etc.
What I enjoyed:  Coding my game.

Volcanoes- Infographic

In my reading group(Mars) we read about volcanoes. We learnt what type of volcanoes there are and how they work. One type of volcano is a Submarine volcano which is a volcano that is located underwater. The text came with activities that we had to do. For our digital activity, we all had to do number eight which was an infographic. An infographic is to explain all the learning we have learnt and put them into pictures, diagrams, labels, description to show that we understood the text.

What I need to work on: Being efficient with all my work so I can finish my other work on time.
What I can do better: Putting more information on my picture.
What I enjoyed: Was learning about volcanoes and how they work.

We should have a summer sports tournament

In Room 6 we have been learning about how to write a piece of persuasive writing. We were giving 4 subjects to write about and it all has something to do with school. I chose to write about having summer sports tournament. We had to plan it first so we can write it smoothly then we began writing our persuasive writing.

What I need to work on: Using strong vocabulary in my writing to hook the reader in.

What I enjoyed: Getting to plan my writing.

What I found hard: Thinking about my arguments.

✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧

We should have a summer sport tournament 

 I believe that our school should have a summer sports tournament. This can help with students fidgeting while sitting on the mat or if they suddenly get talkative.

Extra Energy 
People who have extra energy can get fidgety. This can affect how they do their work and how they act during class. Students get fidgety when on the mat which can cause them to not listen to the teacher and what they are supposed to do afterward. This can also distract others who are trying to listen to the teacher. The classroom teacher can also be affected because they’d have to tell the student to stop fidgeting so they can understand what to do next.

New Things 
Having a summer sports tournament can encourage students to try a new sport. The coaches of these new sports can show leadership by telling his/her team how to play the sport and to help them develop their skills. Students can also meet new people while versing different teams or during break times. Getting out of the classroom With the summer sports, students can get fresh air along with the teachers. The classroom can get pretty hot because it is summer. The school can also save electricity because while the students are gone the classrooms wouldn’t have their AC on. The teachers can also get out of teaching and it would give them less stress.

These are my reasons why I think we should have a summer sports tournament. Playing sports can help improve our stamina. It can also help with us being social!

Why it's important to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

In Room 6 we have been learning how to write a persuasive piece of writing. For our first try Mrs Sutherland gave us a link to a writing gallery where we can pick the topic we were going to write about. For our second try we had to come up with our own topic and I chose 'Why it's important to reduce, reuse and recycle' We  had to come up with a four step plan where we wrote in our arguments for the topic. Next we had to draft our writing and get all our ideas down. After, we started to proofread our writing to correct any mistakes we

What I enjoyed: was getting to write about the topic I want.
What I need to work on: Using links between my writing
What I found hard: Choosing the topic I want to write about.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


Why it’s important to reduce, reuse and recycle. 

 Did you know that most waste that you throw away and see on the road sometimes end up at the sea and landfills? The waste that we throw away kills marine life like turtles, whales, dolphins, etc. Our waste can affect our climate that could lead to climate change.

Plastic
 Generally, our plastic can take up to 1000 years to break down in landfills. Not only the marine life could suffer because of this but also the birds who hunt fish. This is because they can get tangled with fragments of plastic, which causes them to drown and cause of asphyxia (pronounced as as-fik-sia). This waste kills more than a million seabirds a year. The amount of plastic waste is currently estimated is 100 Million tons of plastic. In the north-central part of the Pacific ocean, there was found a plastic island also known as The Pacific trash vortex. The patch contains at least 79,000 tons of discarded plastic.

 Landfills
 Even though we put plastic and other garbage in the bin, it still doesn’t help the fact that it gets put in landfills. For those who don’t know, Landfills are holes on the ground where our waste goes and gets buried. This waste needs 1000 years to break down. The plastic in these landfills can contain some type of chemical that can spread through groundwater, which can be the water we drink later on. 

Marine Animals 
Thousands of turtles, whales, seals, birds and other sea animals are killed every year because of Plastic. These animals mistake plastic as food and eat them. Once the plastic is ingested it cannot be digested so it stays in the gut. Likewise, plastic contains chemicals that can damage their stomachs. This can also cause starvation, plastic cannot be digested meaning it takes up room in their stomach which later on causes starvation. Some of the marine animals are highly intelligent, for example, a dolphin, they would most likely not eat plastic but they may eat prey that has eaten plastic which means that the plastic gets transferred through them. According to the University of Queensland, more than half of the world’s turtles have ingested plastic.

Our Environment 
 Plastic is used around the world today and is one of the most convenient things we have, although it is not that convenient for our environment. When plastic gets in contact with soil, it makes it less fertile. Plastic slowly releases toxic chemicals that can cause pollution. Plastics take 1000 years to break down so the damage to our environment is long-lasting. Plastic can cause land pollution, water pollution, and air pollution.

 Reusing, Reducing and Recycling is easy. You can help our environment by recycling what you can, picking up litter from the road and recycle it, bringing your reusable bags when shopping, etc. Doing the 3 Rs are better than risking marine animal’s lives, the environment, and even our health. This is why I think Reuse, Reduce and recycling is important to do.

The man in the cabin

WALT: 

• Use paragraphs to link similar ideas together
• write in structured, well developed paragraphs that flow well from one to the next within the text
• use linking words and phrases to link paragraphs for effect

This week in Room 6 we had to write descriptive paragraphs based on a picture. The first thing we did was do some learning about writing paragraphs eg: how we can link our paragraphs, what goes in a paragraph etc. We were shown a picture and we had to write about that picture, but before that we brainstormed about it. In our  brainstorm we had the five senses which are: Feel, Hear, See, Taste and Smell. After that we created our paragraphs.

What I found hard: was trying to link my paragraphs
What I need to work on: Make my writing more descriptive and use strong vocabulary.
What I enjoyed: Was writing my paragraphs.

~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~

As he sat alone in the corner of the abandoned cabin, memories flood back in his mind. From the day he got kicked out of his house to the day he was having the time of his life with his friends and his family. He missed those days when he was free with his friends along with his family. But now? He was here in an old neglected cabin. He’s been in there for days, Starving, miserable and most of all missing the comfort his friends and his family gave him. He’s been out a few times just to find food and water to drink and eat. He hasn’t had a proper meal since the day he got kicked out. While he was sitting having a walk through his memories, his stomach grumbled indicating that he was hungry. He groaned annoyed. “Why do you have to be hungry now?” He mumbled looking out the window where raindrops slid down.

 The man got up and limped over to the old table where he puts leftover meals. When he sees just an apple there he groaned. He looked out the window again having a fight with himself in his mind if he should go out to get food or if he should stay in the cabin where it is dry. “If I go out I might get sick” he mumbled. He furrowed his eyebrows “But if I stay here I will starve” he mumbled again. He sighed not knowing what the right decision is. The man settled with staying in the damp, but dry cabin so that he wouldn’t get sick later on. He also ate the apple that sat on his table to keep his stomach happy, he took the apple and limped back over to the corner of the cabin. The man bit his apple and made a nauseated face. "Aish why does this have to be a bad apple?" He complained to himself. Just then a roar of thunder came from the outside which made him bolt upright. He sighed "Seems like I made the right decision of staying inside." He mumbled.

 After eating his not-so-good apple, the man entered dreamland. He managed to sleep in an uncomfortable position. Nevertheless, it's good that the man was able to sleep, despite the position he is on right now but he hasn't slept for more than 24 hours now. He was in a sitting position, his back was against the wall with his feet out. His head fell to the side, which would probably give him a neck ache later on when he wakes up.

 Laughter was heard in the scene. The man stood in the middle of a flower field, in decent clothes. "This must be a dream" The man mouthed. A group of boys are sitting at a picnic table at the far end of the flower field. They were all laughing and having fun. The man smiled at the sight of friends smiling and laughing. The man turned his gaze to the other side of the flower field across his friends. There stood his wife and their children, laughing and having fun having each other's company. The man tried to walk towards them but his feet were glued to the ground. He looked at his feet and they were fine.There wasn’t anything pulling it down. The man tried to move towards them again but failed miserably. Now, something was pulling him down to earth. Something like a hand that he couldn't see. The man grumbled completely frustrated with his situation. The man struggled to get out of the stronghold. It just kept on pulling him until mud was seen on his knees. He let out a whimper. He used all his strength to fight the stronghold. Next thing the man knows his vision turned pitch black...

 The man bolted upright after his horrible dream. His breaths were heavy. The man groaned as pain shot through his body, quickly regretting bolting upright. The man placed his hand against his forehead feeling the sweat sliding down. He closed his eyes focusing on his breathing before he does something else. As his breath went back to its normal rhythm, the man sat up straight and let out a sigh. "I wonder when they will realise I'm here" The man muttered. Just then a knock on the door was heard making the man's attention shift to the door...

(^The Picture we had to write about^)

The Boring Street

This week in Room 6 we read a story called 'The Boring Street' it's about a boy called Ryan who moved to a new neighbourhood which he found boring. His street was originally called 'Baring Street' but since he found it boring he started to call it 'Boring Street'. After awhile in his new neighbourhood he made new friends called Ze Minh and Heremia. 

In order to show we understood the text we had to complete follow up activities in our Literacy books and one digitally. The activity I chose to do digitally was Knowledge where I had to draw/trace a picture of Ryan and his new friends and put something about them.

Something I need to work on: Manage my time so that I can do my activities in my highest standard.

Something I enjoyed:  was reading the story and how they made improvements in the neighbourhood.

Something I found challenging: was tracing the pictures because it took so much time.

Script Writing

This week our topic for writing was script writing. Our student teacher, Ms Ellis told us the structure of a script. We had to plan what we were going to be writing about and the characters we were going to include in our writing. For our characters we had to plan what their hair colour is going to be, what their favourite memory is, what their age is, what their name is etc. We had to be creative to produce a character to be put in our script. As for the actual script, the first time we did write a script we had to write about our main character's favourite memory or the worst thing that ever happened to them. These were planned and all we had to do was write a whole script about the scenario!

Something I enjoyed about writing my script was being able to be creative and make my own characters and giving them personality. Something I should work on is using more strong vocabulary in my writing to describe the scenario and hook my reader in. Something I found interesting was how to write a script because the structure of a script writing was different from my normal type of writing.

A letter to Angie!

 It was a usual day for Angie. She was in her room reading a book called ‘Diary of the wimpy kid.’ and humming along with her favourite song ‘Euphoria’ by a Kpop idol called Jungkook.

 Angie stops what she was doing and puts her bookmark in her book and stopped the music coming from her phone because of the knock on the door.

 Angie: “Come in!”

 Her little brother Mark comes in

 Mark: “Hey Angie there’s a man outside our door that wants you apparently.”
 Angie: “Huh? Why, What is it about?” 
Mark: “They said there was a letter addressed to you?”
Angie: “Oh Okay I’ll be down in a minute”

 Mark nods and exits Angie’s Room. Angie stands up from her bed and puts her book back in the space her book shelf has. She grabs her phone and puts in her pocket. She exits her room and went downstairs to meet her brother, Mark. When Angie got down she saw Mark and the mail man arguing. She sighs.

 Mark: “But I can just give it to her!”
 Mail Man: “I’m sorry but I just can’t give it to you!”

Mark heavily sighs…

 Mark: “Please?”

 Angie walks over to them and taps Mark’s shoulder getting his attention. Mark turns around to face Angie.

 Angie: “Go run along Mark, I’ll take over”

 Mark nods and walks away from the door. Angie watched him walk away and faced the mail man again.

 Angie: “I’m sorry about that.”
 Mail Man: “It’s alright. Here is your letter”

 The Mail man smiles reassuringly and gave Angie her letter.

Angie: “Thank you”

 Angie smiles at the mailman and takes her letter. 

Mail Man: “No worries! I should get going now”

 Angie nods, the mail man walks away to go deliver some more mail. Angie goes inside and closes the door and goes back to her room. She sees Mark sitting on her bed playing on his phone.

 Angie: “What are you doing?”

 Angie asked annoyed.

 Mark: “Who’s the letter from?”

Mark asked looking up from his phone screen to talk to Angie.

 Angie: “None of your business Mark. Can you get out now?”

 Mark groans but he knew better not to annoy his sister so he goes out and does his own business. Angie then takes Mark’s seat on her bed and opens the letter…

 Angie: “Dear Angie….”

Angie trails off as she starts to read to herself. As Angie reads on her eyes sparkled and her smile grew wider. Angie finishes reading her letter and lets out a squeal. Mark barges in.

 Mark: “What? What’s wrong?”
Mark asked a worried expression plastered on his face.

 Angie: “Mark! I got in the company!”

Angie says excitedly making Mark sigh in relief.

 Mark: “Wah I thought something bad happened! Congrats!”
 Angie: “Thanks! Let’s celebrate! I’ll treat you pizza!”

 Mark’s eyes sparkles at the sound of pizza. He jumps around.

 Mark: “What are you waiting for? Let’s go!”

 The two siblings exits Angie’s room to get pizza to celebrate her getting in the company she wanted to be in.

Dumbo- Circus of dreams

WALT: to make connections between the main ideas in the story and the world.

On week 3 our student teacher, Ms Ellis read us a book called 'Dumbo Circus of Dreams' Our task was to answer comprehension questions she puts on our class site. While doing this we were allowed to let our imagination go wild by making our own circus. More activities will be put on the site as we read more chapters of 'Dumbo'
Something I found hard: Was thinking what can go on my circus and making it interesting.
Something I found easy: Answering the comprehension questions because the story was interesting.
Something I need to work on: Try and finish my work on time.

The Ascension

In Room 6 we have been learning about 'The Ascension Of Jesus' this is a time in Jesus' life where he goes back to his father in Heaven.  Jesus ascended into heaven in the fortieth day after Resurrection. Our task was to make a drawing to help us remember what 'The Ascension' is.

What I found Hard: Was finding pictures to trace that will not take too much time, and one that will go with the words in my work.
What I need to work on: I need to work on putting more pictures to go with the words in my work.
What I found easy:  Was putting the stages into words.

Pink Shirt Day!

Pink Shirt Day

 What is Pink Shirt day? 
Pink shirt day is a day when everyone wears pink or bringing something pink. We wear pink for anti bullying and to let people know that they aren’t alone! This is a day is a day to let everyone know that they matter and they deserve to be treated with compassion and kindness!

 On Friday, 17th of May 2019 we had our pink shirt day. This day we celebrated anti bullying. Some people has pink stickers saying things like 'Stand together' or 'Stop Bullying'. Everyone was happy and had a lot of fun!

Pink Shirt Day Photos.

Character Description(Mother's day)

WALT: write a character description using 'show not tell' in our writing.

In Room 6 we have been learning about writing Character Description. For this writing we had to write a character description about our mother or another significant female in our lives. I choose my mum because Mother's day is coming up. We had to write four paragraphs describing their Physical Features, their Behaviour, reputation(how this person affects other people) and Environment and Belongings(How this person likes their surroundings)

What I did well: Using a different language in my writing to make it more interesting(I used Tagalog/Filipino)
What I enjoyed: Writing about my mother.
What I need to work on: Finishing faster but with a lot of detail.


My Mother,

 In the year 1978 and child named Liezl entered the world, now she is my mother. Your smile is bright and cheerful. Your eyes are always shining making it look like you have the stars in your eyes. Your black medium length hair is always tied and fluffy.

 You always use your calm voice even though you are annoyed. You spread your positiveness around and put everyone in a good mood. You never let us go through anything alone and will do anything to make us happy. You would work hard for us to give us the things we need in life.

 You always try your best to cheer us up if we were feeling down. You always put others before yourself. You like taking care of others and making them feel like a someone. You have a very passionate heart. You know when we are not feeling the best and you would try your best to comfort us.

 My mum likes to have a clean environment so she would ask us “Gawin niyo na yung mga gawaing bahay!” (Do your chores) and we would always reply with “Wait lang!” (Wait) but we would always end up not doing our chores, but she will still love us the same way.

 My mum is very caring. We love her very dearly. Mahal Kita Mum!(I Love you mum)

 -Antonette

Character Description

WALT: Write a character description using 'show not tell' in our writing.

In Room 6 we read a book called 'Pig the star' We had to write character descriptions about either Pig or Trevor(Pig's Sausage dog friend) I wrote my character Description about Trevor.

Something I found hard: was writing my character description with the 'show not tell'
Something I found easy: Was creating the sentences that were needed to make the paragraph



Trevor -  He has floppy ears that cover the side of his head. Trevor has sausage like body along with small legs. He has a small tail like a stick. He shows this gloomy feeling by his eyes because of being with pig so much. His snout is long with a black nose at the end of it.

 Trevor is a very quiet dog, he isn’t like Pig he doesn’t want to be the centre of attention. He is very compassionate to others including Pig even though Pig hasn’t been treating him the best. He is a shy dog and lets Pig have the attention. He would only have the confidence to shine when he can, but if he does shine he would still be humble and kind towards others and Pig.

 Trevor is a disciplined dog which makes Pig do whatever he wants to him. Trevor is also forgiving which causes Pig to continue being big headed. He tries to ignore Pig’s rude and careless behaviour which makes Pig irritated. Trevor’s quietness makes Pig more confident and steal his limelight. 

Trevor’s a very organised dog, like some type of perfectionist. He doesn’t like to see his things out of place, if he does see one thing out of place he would put it right back where it belongs. He isn’t that type of person who would leave his clothes laying around the floor. He likes to put his belongings where he can find them easily when he needs them.

Save South Sudan

WALT: Recognise the impact of a drought and a famine on families and communities and describe what happened in South Sudan during Famine 2017.

In Room 6 we have been learning about South Sudan and how they are suffering through Drought and Famine. For us to be able to show our learning, we had to make a Newspaper report about the conflicts in South Sudan.

Something I found hard: was merging the cells together and trying not to delete any work.
Something I found easy: Was finding the pictures for our newspaper report.
Next Time: I would be more focused on my work to get it done on time.

The curse of being a Pharaoh

This week my reading group had to read a story called 'The Curse Of Being A Pharaoh" and with that story we had to answer questions to show we understood the story. We had to choose three activities and do them. These are the activities I chose: Application, Comprehension and Evaluation.

Personal Sin

WALT: explain what is meant by personal sin.

In Room 6 we have been learning about Personal Sins, The Original Sins and Mortal Sins. We are currently learning about the Personal Sins. In order to show our understanding we had to make a D.L.O about personal sins.

Something I found hard: was trying to put what a personal sin is in words and in my D.L.O
Something I found easy: was thinking about what I would put in my slideshow.

Innocent or Guilty?

WALT:  Know how to write a news paper report.
In Room 6 we read a book called "Pig the Pug" We had to make a newspaper report about it. We can take any perspectives and write about it. I chose to write about when Pig the Pug falls out of the window.

Something I found hard: was trying to end the story. Another thing I found hard was using interesting vocabularies to hook the reader in.

Something I found easy: was writing the story(except the end) because I could be creative.

Pig the Pug’s Accident

 It was on a Wednesday March 22nd 2019 that Pig the Pug had his accident. Everything was going well during his day until the accident. A bystander(who does not want to be named) said that when the accident happened Trevor, Pig the Pug’s flatmate, was there with him this is where a question pops up, Is Trevor Innocent or is he guilty?


 Trevor the Sausage dog
After a bystander said that Trevor was there with Pig the Pug, he is interviewed. “No, I am innocent and I did nothing but stand there and listen to Pig until he falls.” Trevor says. While we interview Trevor more there are things happening in the hospital where Pig the Pug is.


 Pig the Pug
 “Don’t believe Trevor, he took one of the toys from my stack which made my stack unstable! He cause this!” Pig the pug says. But is Pig telling the truth or is he trying to frame Trevor? Right now we have two questions that are left unsolved, Is Trevor really innocent or is he guilty? Is Pig the Pug telling the Truth or is he trying to frame Trevor? We aren’t sure if Trevor is the one telling the truth or if Pig is telling the truth.

 Bystanders 
After interviewing Trevor and Pig, we decided to look for any bystanders to look at different point of views. “I think it was just an accident, Trevor was just watching as Pig falls, no one expected this.” A bystander across Pig the Pug’s flat said. “I think Trevor let his anger get the best of him and decided to pull one of Pig’s toys from the bottom and watch Pig as he falls off their flat window.” We aren’t sure which side to believe. Because our team is very confused with this situation, Trevor was put into trial along with Pig and the bystanders. As things get more suspicious, we are waiting for the results the trial will bring

 Trial 
Today Trevor,Pig and the Bystanders were taken to court. “I swear Trevor pushed me!” Pig shouted “Excuse me Pig, but you were the one who was not thinking and made that unstable stack of toys!” Trevor snapped. After the trial, Trevor was found guilty and will be punished he said this “I’m tired of you Pig! You always blame me for the things you did wrong! This is why I did this!” Trevor took one of the toys from the bottom of Pig’s stack which made it unstable and make Pig lose his balance.

My Space

In Room 6 we had to make a D.L.O about our favourite space to learn or chill.

Something I found easy was to pick the place because I like quiet places and the Prayer Garden was a place that I found peaceful.

Something I found hard was describing the place.

South Sudan

In Room 6 we have been learning about South Sudan and the conflicts they have in their country. We have also been learning about Caritas and how they help the people in South Sudan. In order for us to show we understand the Impact of the Conflicts we had to make a D.L.O

The Trinity in action

WALT: Recognise that Te Atua acts as one in the world creating, redeeming and sanctifying .

Student Agreement and User Conditions

In Room 6, we were learning about Student Agreements and User conditions. We had to make a D.L.O to show our understanding.

 

Writing To Describe(Unfinished)

WALT: Use a range of figurative language to describe a moment in time.

I was tired,alone and cold. Where was I? I stumbled upon a house. It was old. Well it looked like it was old because the walls were cracked the painting was almost gone and the tree leaves laid on the ground like a dead person, the plants were overgrown. It was abandoned. I wonder what happened. Without thinking I entered the old house. The inside of the house looked like a tornado has went past it. There were pieces of wood on the ground, there was broken pieces of the house everywhere, but I decided to keep walking. I checked one of the rooms and it wasn’t any better. I went to look around more, the more a looked around the more I was feeling someone was in here too. I stopped. I looked around the room and saw a shadow in the hallway. I froze. I didn’t know what to do nor what the thing that had the shadow was. I was just standing there frozen like a statue. But when I heard a dreadful noise my senses came back. What was that? I ran out of the room. I ran like my life depended on it, because right now my life probably depended on it. I ran to the front door but it was locked.

The Treaty Of Waitangi

In Room 6, we were learning about The Treaty Of Waitangi. To show what we learned, we made a D.L.O about the Treaty Of Waitangi.
