Colours In Maori

We were learning about the colours in Maori, my favourite colour in maori is pango which is black. 

 

I found it easy to look up onto the board to see the colours in Maori because Mrs Barker already writ it there. 

 I found it hard to write the colours in Maori because I didn't really understand the "Ma Whero" and the "Whero" 

 Next time I will spell the colours correctly first time, because I got all of them wrong when I write them down first time.

Making Postcards

We were learning about making postcards to people that we know for example: Mum, Dad, Nan, or probably your future self I enjoyed making this. And we also learnt about to not to trust people giving out money or free Iphones because it's just a scam, also we got to look for the padlock and the proper https URL.

 

I found it easy to delete the background of my image, I also erased a little bit of the side. 

 

I found it hard to think of what I can write in my post card because I was getting a bit distracted by my team mates but still managed to finish it. 

 Next time I will write more on my post card and explain more of what I did in "California" :)

My Reflection On Bikes In Schools Learning

 We were refreshing our brains on what a good recount is, we all agreed to choose bikes in schools recount. Bikes in schools is a program that helps kids learn about bikes and how to use them safely and properly. We had Koka Anelia and Koka Jules teach us the safety about bikes and helmets, and how to not injure yourself if your going biking.

We were learning about bikes in schools with Koka Anelia and Koka Jules, they do a little program with many schools around our country and were lucky that we get to ride the bikes, because I haven't rid our school bikes since last year's school triathlon. We also did learnt about the ABCD Quick Release thing.

I found it easy to ride the big bikes because it was nice and big, and easier to ride on for tall enough kids like me and Ebony for example.

I found it hard to go around the corners fast because they got really narrow, and the track was kind of slippery to ride on and people were going slow on the corners and I wanted to go fast but then I realised they went slow for safety on the corners, but then they went rapid fast on the straight tracks

Next time I will not be scared to go on the pump track because I always said that i'm gonna go on it but then I was being too scared to go on it but as I went on it, the lesson already ended and I was quite sad because I didn't get to show confidence.

10 Things That Are In A Important To Remember In a Recount.

 Hello! Curtis and I are listing 10 things that are important to remember in a recount.

I found it easy to list the top 5 things because I had them all in my mind but some of them Curtis did as well, I will also narrow down my listed things.

 I found it hard to think about the facts very quick.

1. Correct tense, Past, Present or future.

2. Detailed and descriptive sentences, use very rich words.

3. Correct punctuation like Commas, exclamation marks! Question marks? Also put them in the right place.

4. Language features like Onomatopoeia, alliteration.

5. Paragraphs with the correct writing words, and narrowing it down.

6. Include senses like, hear, see, touch, smell, taste.

7. Editing (Make sure the editing that you have done makes sense)

8. Full sentences so the sentence makes sense.

9. Use who, what, where, when, why should be added to your recount

10. Use emotions, explain how it made you feel.

Native Bird Drawing

We were learning about native birds and their habitats and their predators, we also drawed some google drawings about native birds and some traps. 

 I found it hard to polyline the birds because I added so much detail to it so then I had to colour it all in because a bird wouldnt look like a bird without any colour. 

 

I found it easy to draw the fountain because you just had to simply do the polyline of it and just colour it in and put some splash images on it. 

 Next time I will Add more detail to my bird on its colour.

Bird Learning With Group

We were learning about what a bird is and explain the different types of birds, and either if they are a native, endemic or introduced bird, most birds I found were in the introduced type. 

 

I found it challenging to make my polyline of a wandering albatross, I found it hard to do that because I had to add a lot of detail on their wings and it was shocking when I just learnt it had a 3 - 3.5 meter wingspan depended on what type of albatross it is. 

 I found it easy to insert the pictures of the birds that were introduced, native, or endemic birds. It was easier because we were allowed to label the name of that bird, and Isobel helped me label it. 

 Next time I will add more detail into my sentences because they were only 4 or 3 sentences long, some of       the sentences I didnt quite understand because some of my team members put in some weird words but it     was okay.
