Future Aspiration

Today we heard from Marcus Winter and Louis Gordon-Latty. they were introduced by a special being Andrew Patterson.

It was very interesting what we had saw. What I liked the most was when Marcus showed us a video of some of his work that he has done and how he got to where he is in his career.

He showed us that he was not really smart when he was a kid and then he showed us his primary report and he had on it that he slow to the max at writing. So he got put into a class which he thought was the extension group for the smart kids but he was put in one for the kids who needed help with his learning.

It was kinda sad but then he told us that he learnt how to write fast and after that when his class got tested he got the best grammar score in his entire class and I found that very interesting

Mr Wise man’s question:What stood out for me. The thing that stood up for me is the quote that Andrew said “People may forget what you said, People may forget what you did, But they will never forget how you made them feel.

Netbook Reflection 2013





What I like about learning with a Netbook? I like having free time, you can do more things & its easy to write. What frustrates me ? I can’t do things that some other can & other people sometimes hack into my Netbook and change my font. What would make it better? If I had Mac.
How does school compare now VS before I had a Netbook? Quite well because it gives the kids easy work so you don't have to make a big mess because the computer automatic makes it tidy . How could we use our Netbooks better? If it came with a I pad.

Swimming






Early in the morning  a mixed class went for swimming. We got changed of course then Mr Somerville lead us to the pool. Once we got in the pool it was cold, after a little while the pool warmed up.


We get free time for 15 minutes. It was wavy the water. The ladder steps were a bit cold but I can stand it. There was a lot water screaming so that made it hard to listen to Mr Somerville.


Mr Somerville threw a tennis ball into the pool. Who ever gets up to 11 points is able to make something up for the other team to do outside of the pool. The girls won lots of games until the boys won once . We had to get changed into our school uniform.


Thank's for Vaifoa Lam Sam for helping to make my recount much more understanding.

Jackson pollock is a famous artist. In 1945, he married the artist Lee Krasner, who became an very important artist. On August 11 1956 Jackson pollock died in a car crash.

Rm15 went outside for art. We copied Jackson Pollock's style. When we were panting we did not touch the paper we flicked  the paint and it splattered on the paper. I used red ,blue  and yellow, the colors mixed together when they touched.

Adding Detail to Sentences


Our class learnt how to add detail to phrases. we started adding detail to the beginning of the phrase "invented the spaceship". We then had to add more detail to the end of that sentence.



Here are the sentences I wrote.

The alien invented the spaceship.
The teacher invented the spaceship.
Homer Simpson invented the spaceship.


The alien invented the spaceship with a man, when he was tired.
The teacher invented the spaceship with his class, at play time.
Homer Simpson invented the spaceship with Bart, out in their backyard.

Bully

The fuzzy feeling grew as the bully got closer. Facing my fear, I summoned all my courage. “You wond’t get me this time”

I wonder why he always wants to get me? As he walked closer, I prayed that he woulld leaveme alone this time.I was facing my greatest fear.


Summoning all my couruge, I tried to catch my breath. Screaming silently in My head, I didn’t feel so brave. How could I defend myself against the big bully.
