What Christmas means to me

Last week my class got to write about what christmas means to them. I wrote about what christmas means to me. Christmas is not a time of opening presents its about Giving and spending time with family. Here is what Christmas means to me!

What Christmas means to me

Christmas is a time about giving, Happiness and joy. It's not all about the gifts, it about spending time with friends and family. And also celebrating when Jesus was born. Most of us have a tradition like for me and my family. We like to put on a BBQ for our friends.

This is what Christmas means to me!

Goal Setting Update

Today we were seeing if we achieved our Term 1 goal setting. Which is went we did it in term one that went on for the year that we had to accomplish. I did well on my social goal because I helped people make new friends. I showed people how to do their blogs and helped with their work. 
I enjoyed going and looking and seeing what I think I achieved.
Here is my Goal Setting.

November Reflection Newsletter

Today we did November reflection newsletter. Have you made a reflection Newsletter before?. We have been doing alot in November and I cannot believe how much it is. We do our reflection newsletters so we can look back and see what we need to improve or what we have done in the past. 
I enjoyed writing about camp, Wildlab and the Māori cultural festival.
I found it tricky to find a good background to pop out.
Here is my Reflection Newsletter.

Digital Art work

Today for cybersmart we are starting our summer learning journey. We went through some videos to see what we had to do. We went onto this link called Art Colouring Book. There are lots of choices to choose from like a wave like I did and flowers and many more. Then you can click on the one you want and if you want to you can see the original photo you press the photo icon that looks like two mountains.

It comes up with the original photo so you can try and copy it if you want to.

I enjoyed trying new colours to put on the wave.

I found it tricky to copy the image because the colours aren't going where I want them to go. 

Here is the original

Camping in the Bush

This week for our reading task we had to research some information about what we might need to know when we go camping. We chose to do a solar barbeque because it could be useful. We had to list the instructions and what you needed to make it. We were allowed to go in buddys and I chose Manvi. We have been learning to inference. Inference means a conclusion on the basis of proof and reasoning. My answers for the inference question was, dad can't read the instructions for the tent so he insisted of making a shelter instead.

I enjoyed finding the pictures for what you will need.

I found it tricky to find what you need because I keep going to the wrong page.

Here is our information sheet

Parihaka

For reading we have been learning about Parihaka.
Parihaka happened in the 1880s. When the New Zealand government sent soldiers in to take Maori land. Then they sold all the land to the people who arrived in New Zealand from England. The people of Parihaka were forced to find a new place to live because the soldiers burnt their houses and destroyed their crops. The Māori chiefs, Te Whiti and Tohu were put in prison for no reason.

I enjoyed Writing all the information on the feather.

I found it tricky to put my feather together because the pieces kept moving.
