W2 - St Joseph's Cathedral

St joseph Cathedral, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world, well maybe in my opinion, this place looks very beautiful and it looks really big, the location of this place was in 43 Wyndham St, Auckland, 1010

They started the construction of this place on 1894 then they finished on 1902 that's what I read online while I was researching. 

W1# Setting sail

My letter about setting sail

Now If I was these people going from their homeland to another land that most of them don't even know about. I would feel really scared and nervous but still excited at the same time. I would feel really tired when we all get there because we need to paddle and got through the ocean thousands of miles.

What I found challenging about this was when lots of the people we were playing with was kicking the ball really high and I could barely catch it. But what I also enjoyed was playing with different kind of people.

Te Tuhi

Te Tuhi

Hello everyone me and my friends have been working on the te tuhi trip presentation and I think this is a good presentation to prepare us for friday because all of us are going to be doing a lot of work tomorrow. What I found challenging was when I was trying to listen to all of my pairs ideas and try to make my ideas sound different from them. But what I enjoyed was when we helped each other with our work.

Staying from school (sick)

Staying from school

Hi everyone I was feeling very sick this morning and I taking the day off school today and i'm really sad too. But tomorrow hopefully I will be back in school with my friends and ready to do some learning. I will also email my teacher and tell her whats happening
But I think it’s good that I'm staying from school because if I still went I would’ve came back and felt even more sick and I would have to stay from school even more days. So while I am staying I am trying to look after myself and make sure I can go school tomorrow.

Wonder

Wonder

Hi everyone I have been colouring in these papers and finding people to tell me compliments about myself, and my friends and my classmates have been complimenting me about myself.

We were doing this based on a story named wonder and the titles name was what makes us wonderful.

In the bus going to technology

IN THE BUS!!!

Hello Guys I'm in the bus right now going to technology and it’s not that loud like it is with most of the other people here. While they are all gone to touch we are in the bus relaxing with people just talking and laughing.

I can’t wait to get to technology I wonder what we are going to cook this time.

What I always enjoy about being in the bus is when I sit with my friends and I guess what we are going to do or cook at technology.

Going technology

Going Technology now!!!

Hi everyone me and my friends are going technology right now and we are about to line up. The bus is beeping outside and we are in a hurry right now, and miss komor and miss kyla are getting their things organised. I don’t think miss komor is going to technology yes I think I'm right. What I think I found challenging was listening to the bus driver beep the horn several of times

But we all eventually lined up and hurried ourselves down to the stairs.

(I am learning to) IALT: tell the audience how I am feeling about this situation

Player soccer

Playing Soccer!!!

Hi everyone me and my friends Aletheia, Akih, Alone and monita have been playing soccer with these other people. I got 3 goals and my friends Akih and Alone were being goalie. My friend aletheia was mostly watching but she usually came at the right time. While we were playing one person was about to have a goal then Monita came and she kicked it right back to them. We had a lot of fun.

What I found challenging about this was when the other team had many people and our team only had 7 people inside it. But what I enjoyed was all of the people I could play against. But I think next time I could pass the ball to my friends so they have a try and gain more experience to get better and better.

But I really enjoyed it.

(I am learning to) IALT: Explain what I found challenging about this and what In enjoyed about this.

writing

Hello everyone today I have done a writing sample with my class and we had to write about good friends and friendship. What I found challenging about this was trying to write 5 sentences in each paragraph, and I had to write 3 paragraphs or more. What I also enjoyed about this test was writing about friends because I have lots of friends. 

I think what I should do better about this was focusing more on my test and no talking with my friends too much because I always talk too much to them and thats why my teacher miss komor to another table. 

Math task

Hi everyone I have been working on a maths problem and it was a fractions problem. I had a strategy and my strategy was 20 divided by 5 = 4 and 5 x 3 = 15 so 3 fifths of 20 is 15 and 15 is the answer

MATHS PROBLEM 2

Here today I have done a very simple problem with my friends and what I found challenging was trying to count down and subtract the different kind of numbers.But I really enjoyed working with my friends

Maybe next time I could do it faster if I listened better to my friends when they are explaining their answers and questions
I really loved creating new ways to solve the problem with my friends because they all have their own complex and unique ways to solve it. There is a link on the bottom to the problem to help you have a better visual of the problem.

Reading time!!!

Reading Time!!!

Secondly today I will be doing reading and for reading I will be reading a text about games and how they could help to maintain an indigenous culture. Reading also requires focusing just like maths because there might be some specific information you might really need to remember. I will really enjoy this.

maths

Hi everyone me and my friends have been doing maths and we have been working on this problem. It was really fun and hard at the same time but we got through it by working together and helping each other. We also listened to each others ideas and that helped us solve the problem out. 

I found it very challenging because I had to listen to all of these different kind of Ideas and thats what made it very hard. I also enjoyed listening to them all express themselves in all different kinds of ways. 

there is a link to on the bottom to our work you can check it out and comment what we could do better and you could see us get our things.
