Kia Ora Blog Viewers! This is a late update but I'm just gonna tell you anyways! Yesterday in our Team 4 assembly we were handing out holiday blogging awards. If you visited my blog in the holidays you would've seen blog-posts of me participating in the Team 4 Holiday Blogging Challenge. It was a great blogging challenge I got to create my own shoes, do origami and even clean the house! Back to the awards! We had a special person hand our little bags and it was Mrs Burt! Mrs Burt is like the mother of the school blogging challenge, so one of our teachers hooked her up to come and hand out the prizes. Prizes were given for: The Most Posts, Audience Appeal, Entertaining the Burt's (Mr and Mrs Burt), Quality of Posts and last but not least for going the extra mile. I was given my prize for the Quality of my Posts. I stood up proudly as my friends cheered me on!Overall it was a great morning we even took a photo with the beautiful Mrs Burt.

Times Tables Maths Test!

This is just a screenshot of what I did in my Times Tables Maths Test.

Musical Madness!

Walt: use adjectives to improve our descriptive writing.

WALT: use exciting language in a recount

Have you ever seen your teacher sing before? Well today at our school Immersion Assembly, lot’s of music was happening in the hall! I’m looking forward to how the term is going to be!

This term our school topic is based on Music, and it is called Musical Madness! Team 1,2 and 3 was all about how music changes our feelings and how different beats can make up one song. Team 5’s crazy act was all about different beats to music! The Assembly was hilarious but my all time favorite act was Team 3’s little movie they made a mini Songs in Real Life video. It was an incredible video that  made me laugh the till the end.  

Finally it was Team 4’s turn! Team 4’s movie was a little car pool party! All the teachers from Team 4 were having fun singing in the car enjoying the music (but some of the music was boring because they were old school). The little movie was like a commercial for our school music. It was kind of like the commercial’s that Apple does for there music. This Term our Team is looking at making our own music, and even making instruments!

Since the Term is all about music I am dying to learn to play the Guitar! I also want to learn to play the drums and I think our Team Leader Mr Somerville will teach us because he is fantastic at playing the drums! Those are the instruments that I want to play but I’m also hoping to learn to play the piano along with other instruments too.

Overall I think that the Term will be awesome! I love music and I’m sure other people in the school do. I think that school and music goes together because her in Pt England we make up songs and sing to other songs too! In fact we already got school song already up called Musical Madness! I think that Term 4 will be great!

Holiday Blogging - Bullying - STOP NOW!!

Walt: Spread an Important message.


Task Description: Today me and Leilani made a presentation on Bullying. We were just watching a video about bullying and something just clicked! Leilani asked me if I wanted to do a presentation about bullying so I said sure. We decided to make make this presentation to stop the bullying. There are still lot's of people in our world who are getting bullied. Some have committed suicide because of bullying, and losing loved because of that is really sad. I also want to spread this message because I have been bullied too through email. So remember to STOP BULLYING AND STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT!

Holiday Blogging - Descriptive Writing!

Walt: Write Descriptively.

Task Description: Today I created my own presentation all about Descriptive Writing. I got this idea from school as we would do Ailen Descriptions, Monster Descriptions and more! I did a mix of Character Descriptions and Setting Descriptions. I picked out four images from google and wrote a Description about each one. I did one about an Ailen, Shark, Beach and a Spooky Haunted House. I really enjoyed this task because I got to think very hard and think about detail in my writing. I hope to do this next holiday's because I think that it will improve my writing!
