Cinquain Poem

LI: To write a cinquain poem to describe a sports star

We have been learning to write cinquain poems to help us strengthen our connections to description. A cinquain poem has 5 lines. Each line has a different purpose. Line 1 is a noun which is a name. Line 2 has 2 adjectives taht describe the noun. Line 3 has 3 verbs that end in ‘ing’ and describe the actions. Line 4 is a noun phrase which is a group of words (not a sentence) that go together to describe the noun. Line 5 is a synonym which is a word with a similar meaning to the noun.

My Reading Pathway

LI: To show my personal journey through books

This week is book week at Panmure Bridge School, which means every class participates in a number of reading activities. One of our activities was to create a reading pathway that shows how my favourite books have changed over time. At the moment I like reading because I could learn new words.

How to stand up to bullies | Confidence Award

L.I: Make a DLO that tells you how to Stand Up to Bullies.

Heavenly, Hosea and I have completed an activity for the confidence badge i'm working towards. The activity we chose was based off how we should stand up to bullies. Many people bully for attention and a sense of superioty towards others. In class we are told to use our W I T S whenever someone's bullying me or others. One of our examples to learn how to stand up to bullies is walk away or tell the teacher. This task was fun because it give people younger and older ideas for what to do when they are being bullied.

ASB Getwise

In the morning we learned about money and how we should save money , and spend it wisely. 

Marlon gave us $1800 we had to spend it for a trip to Fiji. We had to buy a passport for $200. 

Then we had to buy a ticket there were two options $500 or $800 the difference is that the 

$500 flight you get no food and not that much space my group pick $500 because were still getting there. 

Next we had to buy a hotel to stay there we had to choose $600 with food and a open view to the water. 

The other option was a $200 with a view to a brick wall and a bed with pee stains we picked $200. 

After that we had to decide if we wanted insurance or not and it was $300 my group said no. 

Next we had to buy activities there were 3 options $100 was surfing, $200 scuba diving, 

$300 skydiving my team brought all of them. Then we brought food it was $100. 

after we finished my group had $100 left. It was really fun because we had to make the best decision.

Toys

 LI: To strengthen connections to technology.

We have been learning about technological practice.  This week we have been learning about the 6 processes of Technological Design and how each one is important in the process of designing a product.

We are using the processes of technological practices to  design and build a rubber band- powered rover that can 

scramble across the floor. I found this interesting and fun because we were able to find the materials needed to 

make the rovers, and we were able to do it with our friends. 

A moment in time poem

 LI: To use the language features and structure of published poem to help use write our own poem.

We looked at the language features and structure of a poem called ‘A Moment in Time’ and used our experiences from camp to follow the structure and collaboratively create our own moment in time poem. To describe what we heard, what we saw, how we felt and what we wondered we used our senses, adjectives and adverbs. Ajectives are words that describes nouns. Adverbs are a word that describes an action. I found this task interesting and fun because I used a really cool website called word hippow to make my groups work better.

Isaac Newton

LI: To learn about Isaac Newton

Publish to the web your slides. This week in Reading, LS2 has been working towards Simple Machines. Apart of this, we were required to learn about Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton is a physicist, mathematician, theologian and a Astronomer. We were also required to create a DLO with the following questions: Why is his work important? What did he find out? How does his work connect to simple machines? 

I found this activity fun because I learned new things like who discovered gravity.
