Sharing our mahi live on Facebook

 

This week we have been working hard on our presentations for our Whanau Matariki Art Trail (happening in week 10). We have been making inforgraphics to show what we have learned. Some of our students were chosen to share their awesome mahi with Miss Simeon. When they went to show her, she decided to share some more by broadcasting on Facebook Live. 

I Am Water

We are learning to locate language features and to understand the purpose of different texts. We read a poem called I Am Water. We talked together as a class about the poem and we created a glossary to help us with the words we didn't know. Next, we glued the poem into our literacy book and we looked for different language features. Most of the language features we found were verbs and nouns. Then we highlighted what we found to show we knew what language features there were.
We found it easy to locate nouns in the poem.
We found it hard to understand some of the words in the poem so using the glossary was helpful.
We really enjoyed reading the interesting verbs used because they inspired us to write better.
Next time we need to practice using some of the new vocabulary we have learned in our conversations and our own writing.

                     

 

Lego Spike Prime

On Fridays, for Technology, we do Lego Spike Prime. 

This week we made some creations and presented them at assembly. We had to think about what we would make, collaborate within our group, and reflect on our learning.

We are building our collaboration skills and realising who we work well with. We are also developing our resilience and problem-solving skills.
