End of week !!

 

  • What did I enjoy this week? I really enjoyed being taught by our new teacher miss lawless I love it when she reads to us . Because it is really fun to learn new words and how to pronounce different words. It was really cool to learn more story's about our culture. and to see what he feels being the last Maori warrior and what he had to go through to survive.

  • What was one success I have had and why? I think I succeeded in my punctuation with the great help of our cool teacher Miss lawless. she helped me by sitting me down somewhere quit and she read it out loud and I then realised that there were a lot of mistakes. but she then showed me what goes where. she really was a big help and I really appreciate it.

  • What is something that I found challenging and why? I found it challenging to do writing because so may ideas pop up in my head and I just write it all down. And when I read it I read it in my head and I don't feel the need to fix anything because it sounds fine. But when it gets read out loud I then see where the mistakes are.

  • What is one thing I have learned? I learned that my left leg is stronger then my right. In high jump because when we had a guest come in and taught us how to get better at things. I didn't really feel the need to practise on my left and thought it was pretty stupid at first. But when I finally did it I could felt more stronger on it.

  • What is something I am looking forward to next week I am looking forward for it to get closer to the year 8 ball. and camp and I can't wait because it is going to be so much fun. and I can not wait to get fun memories from these activities with my class.

  • I showed aroha in my song that was about my siblings i how much they annoy me but that I will always love them even when they make me really angry.

The Arts

 For a lesson we have been given a task were we have to watch all the videos and then write what it means to you. I for one found it really fun because they all were fun activity/hobbies to do. And how they have a big impact on our lives. The thing they all had in common is that they all tell a specific story that they want you to know.  or feel  well presenting it. her is my completed task.

Weekly reflection

 I really enjoyed doing athletics with my class and trying my hardest at improving my last score. I love to watch how the rest of the class improves at different thing and watch them become better at the activity they find the hardest. 

I had succeeded in my writing skills with my describing words and making a power paragraphs.  which makes it interesting to read and it might make the reader want to read more about it. But if it doesn't describe it wont be able to paint a pitcher in the audiences  head. Which will make it boring because they should be able to use there imagination.

I found it challenging at high jump because I  was not getting the skills that I needed to be able to be confident with jumping at amazing height.   But that then leaded me to make myself a goal that by some point I will be able to jump higher then 1.5 metres. And I can not wait to improve. 

I have learned about the virgin Mary with who she is what role she had in our life's or what impact she had on others life. She was the mother of Jesus she was kind loving and caring she was a  mother not just to Jesus but to those who needed it.

I am really looking forward to our new teacher Miss Lawless teaching us and to carry on with her amazing story. She read me some of it and it was really interesting and I can not wait to read the rest.  And this story is about the history of the two culture last Maori warrior I learned a lot from the begging of that story things that I had never heard from.

I have been showing Pono because I own up to things if I had done it. also being truthful to myself with if I am doing the right thing or if I am making the right choice. 

Big Sisters Are The Best!!

It was a beautiful warm night. The moon was glistening bright in the dark blue sky. I remember standing on the balcony and watching the little white glimmering trails of stars  stuck upon the navy blue blanket. The stars looked like little fireflies. I heard the rustling of the trees as the wind blew in there direction. Then I saw flickering from the long streetlights.  I leaned on the bars and took a deep breath letting go of all the stress piled in my thoughts clearing my mind from the things that bothered me. I then started thinking about what to do. I  opened  the ranch-slider and stumbled into my room.

I flopped myself onto my bed and let out a sigh. My sisters eyes were locked onto their phone when I heard one of them screech out, ''IT'S YELLOW!'' I suddenly bursted out from laughter when I saw how much  determination and frustration expressed on her face. My other sister then bursted with laughter well I grabbed  out my phone and started videoing, keeping it for the funny memories. She then turned to look at me and smiled through embarrassment. She then let out a small giggle. I then turned on the black screen TV and switched it onto Netflix.  I was scrolling through TV shows and movies when I saw something eye catching. I put it on and started to watch it. It was a bit boring at first but then it started to get interesting which hooked me in. My eyes were latched onto the TV when I heard shouting coming from the kitchen, ''DINNER TIME!'' My Nan shrieked I then open the door and rushed to the kitchen.

I could smell the delicious food coming from the plate. That was in front on me it was homemade burgers. I then picked up the burger a took a giant bite it was amazing. I started munching it back. Then went into my room and started watching the TV show. When I saw my sister bust my door and jump on the bed, I glared at her when she started to make eye contact. Then we just started laughing out loud almost crying with joy.  We then stopped when my other sister came in trying to not laugh.  She then slowly laid  down still playing among us. She was so hilarious to watch when she played that game. I then pressed play on my TV show. It was really awesome story. My other sister then quietly  said, ''what are you watching?". I turned to look and told her, "something" which made her get annoyed. But then when I was at a boring part I skipped when suddenly she  shrieked,'' DON'T SKIP IT!''. I watched her in confusion. While she was on her phone I then kept skipping just to annoy her. When she pounced at me and ripped the remote out of my hand. I quickly snatched the remote back and that's when she told me to stop skipping. I glanced at her and just said," fine whatever ". I switched the TV back on and started watching  (2 hours passed).

I switched off the TV and snuggled into my bed. My two sisters were still watching their phone. I  closed my eyes it was pitch black  I started to slowly drift into a deep sleep(3 hours passed). I opened my eyes and got up to get a drink of water. I tried to open the door quietly it loudly creaked. Luckily I didn't wake anyone up. I tiptoed to the kitchen, opened the ca board and grabbed a glass cup. And walked over to the tap and turned it on. the water dropped into my cup. I turned it off  and  then started to take small sips of nice cold water.  I went to pour the rest out . I went back to my room hopped into bed and listen to the calm night. I could hear birds squawking .  I then just stared at my roof till I could fall asleep again. Minutes went pass when my black cat leaped onto my bed.   I saw her bright green eyes looking straight at me. She started to creep closer and closer she was then on my stomach. And got comfortable and then closed her eyes and went for a nap. I then started patting her soft head and moved my hands down trying to calm her. And went back to sleep...
