A day in isolation

Kia Ora,
Last week we had to choose a task to blog and I  have chose to do a day in isolation.
Something I have learnt is how to embed a document.The easy part was writing the steps down.
And the hard part would of been to do the times for each step. What I find fun about this task  was
that I got to learn and write about a day in isolation.
Bye.

Maths: 1 Geometry Safari

This term for maths we have been learning about 2D and 3D geometry.  Fred, Barney and I were in a team. We went on a Geometry Safari around the school grounds to see how many 2D  and 3D shapes we could find. Then we had to write what we had found into a table. You can see ours below.

Science: Me and my DNA.

This term for science we are learning all about how the human body works and how special we all are. We are also trying to learn how to think and act more like a scientist. So, Miss Fletcher asked us to look at our faces in the mirror and write down notes about what we look like. The information had to be precise and clear so that when someone read it, it would help them find the person it described quickly. It was a bit like being a detective. You had to look and notice things carefully.

Miss Fletcher said that what we look like depends on our mother and father. Making a new human is a bit like making a cake.  You get some ingredients from your mum and some from your dad. The ingredients are called DNA. Everybody’s cake is different to everyone else’s. 

Miss Fletcher said the person with the most efficient description was Andrew J as he wrote: My hair is 1cm long all over. He is the only student in Team Moana with a haircut like that so he was able to be identified very easily. You can read my description below. The sentences highlighted in blue are the ones that Miss Fletcher said were not precise and clear enough.  Ten people said they could recognise me from my description. 

Christmas decoration

Hello everyone,

Today me and my  whole class has made Christmas decorations to funraise for our school ski trip next year. So we made Christmas decorations to sell at our school whanua night.

What I didn’t like was cleaning up the mess that I made. I liked making Bob that's my elf's name. 

I made an elf and all I had to do was:

1. Get a toilet paper roll.

2 get a ribbon

3 get a small kete.

4 get googly eyes

5 get materials

And then you have.

My Christmas decoration plan

Kia Ora,

So today we had to do a plan to make a Christmas decoration to
help fundraise  for our school ski trip next year. And the hard thing I
think was is finding a price for your decoration. And the fun and easy part of this task was probably talking about how fun it will be to make.

spelling practice tearm 4

Kia Ora,

So today at Ohaeawai Primary School we had to practice essential list 6,7,8. I only got
list 7 done. The tricky part of this task was finding the root word. The easy thing was probably
just getting through slide after slide after I figured out what root words are.  I found this task fun
good to help your learning and very very easy to go through.

My ambition for 2020

This year I am a year 5 at Ohaeawai Primary School. I have enjoyed trying to help little kids when they are sad or hurt.
My favourite thing that happened this year was probably pet day because there were a lot of cool
animals there.
And my least favourite thing that's happened was  I think cross country because it
was very very hard and long.

Next Year I am a year 6. My goal for 2020 is trying to be reliable. To help my schools rubbish problem I think we should make a stop to littering and get people to help clean up.
I want to have a responsible group of year 6's to go and do a little clean up around the school every day and hopefully that will help stopping litter.

My learning
Well, my learning so far has been pretty good but I think I might need to focused a bit more instead of talking. Hopefully I will be reliable, trustworthy and caring enough to be a young leader.
