How are you today? I hope you feel AWESOME! I feel AMAZING, thanks! (if you asked me.)
In class, we have been learning about octopuses. we researched about them and put them on a sheet of paper, then we put it in full sentences on a plan sheet. We had to write the Introduction and Conclusion by ourselves but the paragraphs were already written on the plan sheet. So it was easy, well only if you had a decent plan with big sentences and information. I enjoyed this activity because we already had the information on the planning sheet so all we had to do was copy from it (it was from our own words). I like doing information reports in general too! This activity was difficult because it was hard to see the paper because our whole group could not all look at it at the same time because we were the biggest group. We problem solved this by putting it up with a Chromebook case and some books, so it was alright.

Hope you enjoyed :) Have a good day!
See you next time !

Word of the week - Resilience

Hi everyone! Kia Ora! Bonjour!

Hope you are all having a fantastic day.

Every week at school we have a word that we have to research and learn about to increase our vocabulary. The word for this week is Resilience. Our Teacher wrote on the whiteboard that Resilience is going to be the word of the week because she said that our class needs to be it more. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to try and move the texts around and it was just fun in general. This was difficult because it was hard to find a picture and trying to think of other antonyms and synonyms for Resilience.

Hope you enjoyed! :)

You should try this out too!

See you nex time!

Suffixes

 

                                      Hi, bonjour, Kia Ora! Hope you are having a good, lovely day!

Through the past week we have been learning about suffixies. We had to complete and fill out these different sheets to learn about what a suffix actually is because you can't teach and make something if you don't even know what it is. A suffix is a sound that you can add on a sentence like -est or -er to make it more of something. This was really fun to learn and I can understand how to write a few more words. We had to make a DLO about suffixes so that others can learn too! I choose to put a picture in there aswell because I thought that it would pop a bit more on my blog (the website you are on right now). I choose to do a picture with a small dog and a big dog. I wrote smallest and biggest on the dogs because those words have suffiexs. I enjoyed this atcivity because it was fun to write what are suffixes and look at the cute dogs. This was difficult because it was hard to find a picture to represent what suffixes are that I could use, but then I was like, why don't I have dogs to represent that. And that is the picture that I found on google to put there. 

Hope you enjoyed!

Soccor - Player of the day!

 

Hi Everyone! Kia Ora! Bonjour! How are you all? I hope you are doing good.

Guess what! I GOT THE PLAYER OF THE DAY award today at soccer. Every Saturday there is a soccer game. In the first half, I was a mid-fielder and at the start of the second half, I was a sub. Everyone (mostly everyone) was a sub at some point. When I was not a sub on the second half, I switched with someone who was back so that meant that I was back. Whenever I saw the ball coming and someone was chasing it (on the other team) and it was over the line I kicked it. I kicked it a lot. It was so much fun! You can't really tell by the picture, but my face was so red. Usually, you get a certificate too but they did not have any so they are just going to give it to me at practice on Thursday. I was so happy when I got the player of the day. I enjoy soccer a lot. You should try Soccer too! (If you like kicking and running around.)

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Word of the weeks

 

Kia ora! Hope you are all having an amazing day. 

I have made this slide full of all my word of the weeks of the term because I keep forgetting to post them. I have written what the date was when I made the word of the week in the top left of the page. I enjoyed doing these words of the week because it was fun to make a picture. My Teacher (Mrs. Read, for now since Miss Farr is gone for now.) said that we had to make the picture instead of getting a picture from google. I usually already do that sometimes when I can't find a picture I can use. This was difficult because I found a lot of synonyms and antonyms so I had to write all of them. 
I think you should try this too!

Hope you enjoyed :)

Blogging Contratct - What, Why are you grateful for?

 

Bonjour! Kia Ora! Hello!
How has your day been going? Hopefully, it has been amazing. Write in the comments!
This is an activity that we can do whenever we like. It is called the blogging Contract. This is a goggle drawing that Miss Farr (My teacher) made for us to do in 2019. (This is my third year with Miss Farr) It has a bunch of different activities to choose from. I choose the things that I am grateful for because I was in the mode of expressing my feelings about what I am grateful for. I enjoyed this because it was fun to write about my family. I liked putting the pictures there as well. This was difficult because I had a big spot that was empty so I thought that I should put what it said on the blogging Contract form and that it was made by me. You should try this out if you're bored. Just go to the Whenua 2021 site then go down to the blogging contract. 

Hope you enjoyed :)

Word of the week - Haughty

 

Bonjour! Kia Ora! Hello!

How has your day been, hopefully, it has been good. Mine has been good. 

This is the word of the week that we have for this week. The word is Haughty. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to make the sentence, get the picture and the explain what it means. It was difficult because it was hard to write all of the synonyms and to get them to all fit in the box. I think you should try this activity because you can build up your vocabulary. 
Hope you enjoyed :)
