Librarian excellance evidence #2

Today after I had finished my lunch I went to the library because I had librarian duty.  When I got there, there were a lot of books to be put back on the shelf.  Hannah said that it was our job this week to put the books away because Grace and Victor had done it for the last 2 weeks.  Once we had put all the books away I asked Mrs Ward what the James Patterson books were like because some people said they were really good and the cover of the books look cool.  So I decided to get the book called "I Funny" out to read.  After that I went for a walk around the Library to see if everyone was ok.  It was a quieter day in the library today as it was Hot Chocolate Tuesday as well.  After I had finished walking around I sat down because there was nothing to do.  While I was sitting down I had a chat to Mrs Ward about books.  I showed leadership today by being in the right place at the right time and remembering to do my duty.   

Technology at Lincoln Excellent evidence #3

Today I had to get to school early because we had Technology at Lincoln.  When we were lining up I looked at the bus's and they were not the bus's we normally have because they were bigger and they were Metro bus's that transport people.  When we got on the bus's there was a 1 seater seat so I sat in it.  Once everyone sat down the bus driver said that the bus that we were on was a Metro bus and we had to respect it because it transports people and they want a good bus to sit in.  Once we got there I went to my class and started my room design.  When everyone got there Mrs Scott had a talk to us and said our goal was to try and get our wallpaper all done and move on to the floor and then the interior.  After Mrs Scott had finished talking, Ryan and I started to wallpaper our last wall.  Once we had done our wallpaper we tried to figure out what colour our floor should be and after a lot of thinking we finally decided on a light green.  Once we had cut it to size we stuck it down with a glue stick and moved onto our cricket pitch and wickets.  After we had cut out our cricket pitch we cut out our wickets.  Our cricket pitch was a brown piece of fabric and our wickets were straws.  After we had hot glued them down, we started planning for our net that is going around our pitch.  We got some popsicle sticks and glued them on like a triangle to hold the net.  After we had done four we had to pack up because we had to go back to school.  I showed leadership by being resilient because the cutting and gluing of the wickets was very fiddly and you could burn your fingers easily.

Writing week 11 term 2

W.A.L.T Explane our chosen carreer.  In writing we have been focusing on careers I have finished my board.  You need to put a lot of detail on your board because people are going to be looking at it and they might have a question and you don't what the answer is.  You will here more about my career once we have shared them.  Here is a photo of my careers board.

Old reading from week 7 term 2

W.A.L.T Explore the authors purpose.

This piece of reading is about our normal weeks reading but I am going to share about our story and follow up about happy feet the penguin that washed up on peka peka beach.  We had to make a opinion if they should have saved happy feet or not.  Here is my opinion.  I think they should of treated happy feet and not left him on the beach because it is very good practice for the new nest in wellington zoo.  Also it is great practice for the staff to treat a sick animal.

Maths week 11 term 2

In maths we have a new system. My goal is to find the perimeter and area of shapes.  First we have to find a goal out of our astle pathway then we have to have a teacher session about our goal to know what to do next we do an activity on our goal then we have a conference with the teacher to see if we can go onto ixl and do an activity.  Then we can go on ixl to do a activity and if we master it at 100% we can move onto another goal.  Here is a photo of the maths system you may not be able to see it very well because it is on glass.

Learner Licence week 11 term 2

Learner Licences are just new in room 26 there are 4 stages they are called mobile learner licence, independent learner licence, regulated learner licence and teacher. Mobile means you can work anywhere in the school but you have to ask the teacher.  Independent mean you can work anywhere in the classroom.  Regulated means the teacher chooses where you work.  Teacher means you have to sit beside to the teacher.  I am on mobile learner licence because I stay on task all the time, I finish work to I high standard. My next step is to just stay on task and not talk to people when I am working. Here is a photo of the learner licence.

Senior Choir excellence evidence #2

Today I had Senior Choir at 8:45.  Today it was in the hall because we are performing at the celebration of learning assembly.  When I got there, there were only girls there.  Once Miss Harris got there we had already started our warm ups.  After we had done our warm ups we sang hallelujah but after we had finished singing Miss H said that we were a little flat.  Miss Harris tried a new thing, it was when we sing she says an emotion and we have to sing like it.  After we had done that a couple times we tried singing hallelujah again and they said it was much better but we needed to keep our volume up.  After that we sang money money money once and Miss H and Mr M liked the volume. Then matua Rihari came in and we sang hallelujah to him because it had a Maori verse in it.  After we had finished singing Matua said that our pronunciation was spot on.  Then we had to stop because it was 9:30 and the yrs 5/6 had Te Reo.  I showed leadership by being resilient because we had to put all our effort into the song.

Peer Mediator excellent evidence #1

On Thursday at 1:10 I got the gear for Peer Mediator and went to find Ryan and Victor.  Once I found them we started to walk round the field but we had to be careful because the field was very muddy and wet.  After we had walked round the field a couple times there we no problems to solve so it was a bit boring.  At 1:20 Mr Wallis went around the school ringing the hand bell because the Kakano team had cross country at 1:30 which is the end of lunch.  When the proper bell rang the Kauri team went back to class for the last block of learning before going home.  After I put the Peer Mediator gear away I told Mr McAven that I was at the Kakano cross country because I was a marshal.  I showed leadership by being at the right place at the right time to do my duty.

Technology at Lincoln Excellence evidence #2

Today I had to get to school early because we had Tech at Lincoln.  Once I got to school we had to be very careful because there was ice everywhere.  When I finally got to class the 8:30 bell rang so I went into class because we had to do the roll to see if people were late or sick.  Once we had done the roll Mr Brown said if we see someone that was late we have to tell them to go to the office so the school knew if they were here or not.  When we were lining up there was only 1 bus there, so bus 2 people got to go on it while bus 1 people were still waiting.  Once we left we could only talk to the person next to us so the bus driver could concentrate on the road because it was very icy.  Once we got there we had to look out for ice so we had to walk not run.  When we got into class we continued on with our room design.  Once we had finished our room we had to wallpaper it.  Ryan and I got 3 of our sides done so we only have one to go.  On the way back there was only a little bit of ice on the road as the sun had melted most of the ice.  I showed leadership by being self aware and talking to the person so the noise level did not get to loud and distract the bus driver.

Senior Choir excellence evidence #1

Today I had to get to school at 8:30am because I had Choir at 8:45am.  When I got there, there were only about 20 people there and with every minute that went by more people came. Once a few more people and Miss Harris got there we started our warm ups.  After we had done our regular warm ups the bell went and a lot more people came and then we sang the national anthem for the Christchurch music festival. After we had sang the national anthem we did the roll so the teachers and office knew if we were there or not.  Next we learnt how to sing Here Comes the Sun and we went through that a couple times.  Then Mr McAven came in and watched us sing till the end.  Next we sang Money Money Money with Sophie playing the drums a few times and then we sang Hallelujah with Mia, Sarah and Meadow playing the guitar.  We went through Hallelujah once and then we had to finish because the yr 5/6 had to go to Te Reo so Choir was finished for today.  I showed leadership by being resilient when we were singing Here Comes the Sun because it was very challenging to sing.  My next step is to open my mouth more so I'm not muttering when I'm singing.

Technology at Lincoln excellence evidence #1

Today I had to get at school at 8:45 because we had tech at Lincoln.  On the bus we could only talk to the person next to us or the volume would get to loud.  Once we got there we headed to our class. I am in design which is in the hall.  We continued with our dream room, I am doing it with Ryan.  Today we finished our plan on paper and then we drew it in 3d to plan out how we make it on our good copy.  Next we started cutting out our room and added our doors and windows.  When we had to go I made sure I got everything and hopped on the bus and talked to the person next to me to make sure the volume didn't get to high.  Once we got back to school we had to wait till 12:40 to get our sausages as it was sausage sizzle day. I showed leadership by being resilient doing our dream room because it was very fiddly and was challenging. 

Librarian excellent evidence #1

Today at lunch time I finished my sausage sizzle and went to the library to do my duty.  First I had to put a lot of books away because Hannah and Grace were still finishing there juicies and Victor forgot so I had to go and get him.  Once the other three got there they put the rest of the books away and then I sat at the issuing desk and waited for someone to get a book out.  I was waiting and waiting and then someone finally got a book out.  After that 3 more people wanted to get books out so I had something to do.  At1:25 we had to close the library so we could clean it and put the books back in the right place.  Once the bell rang we had to go back to class.  I showed leadership by being in the right place at the right time for my duty.

Te Reo

Senior Choir

Today I headed to the music room at 8:45 for senior choir.  First we did our regular warm ups.  Then we did the roll so the teachers know that we are there.  Next we learnt to sing Mexican Wave for the Christchurch Music Festival.  Mexican wave is about a cricket match.  After that we ran through hallelujah a couple of times then Choir had to stop because it was 9:30 and the yrs 5/6 had to go to Te Reo.  I showed leadership by being resilient when we were singing Mexican wave because it was challenging.

Then we do a vocabulary sheet to write down the technical and unfamiliar words in the story.  After that we do a summery sheet so if someone reads it the know what the story is about.  All of that is called our before activity which we do on Monday.  After our before is done we do our must dos or our teacher follow up.  For must dos we had to do a article about a glass bridge and answer some questions and then a reading comprehension sheet about hypens (top right). Our follow up was about writing a made up story about a road sign and what it ment ( bottom right).  

Technology at Lincoln

Today we arrived at school at 8:15 because we had technology at Lincoln. Once we got there we went to our new classroom because we only have 7 weeks in each class so I am now in design.  Today in design we learnt about safety and also started planning for our dream room.  For my dream room I am doing a indoor sport centre with Ryan.  I showed leadership by talking to the person next to me on the bus so the noise level did not distract the bus driver.

Senior Choir

Today at 8:45 i headed to the music room for Senior Choir.  When we got there, there were only yr4s and Mr McCallum.  Mr McCallum was teaching some yr 7/8 girls how to play hallelujah on their Guitar.   After everyone got there we did the roll and then went through hallelujah.  Next we tried to sing a little bit of Poi e and Mexican wave.  I showed leadership by being in the right place at the right time.
