Week 4 Reveiw

This week in tech arts I finished my pillow case and at home I put it to use and it really brightens up the room and it's on my reading chair. I also started my bag and I cut out all the pieces then pinned them on. This week I'll sew them on.  The picture on my bag is fishies and seaweed.  There are two fishes which are yellow and pink and the seaweed is different shades of blue.

In maths I started doing work on circles and then we had a test on Friday.  I found most of it relatively easy and I solved the problems quickly.  For reading I finished my book analysis and I think I did okay.  I have learnt my speech but I could learn it better.  I am getting better in cross country and I think I am improving my running.  I have also almost finished my series that I have been reading.

On Thursday we had a band festival and it went for the first two blocks and heaps of schools competed and did well. I was in the symphonic band playing percussion because there was no one who wanted to play so I had to do it.  Our band played really well and received a gold first place award.

Review of Week 3

This week in maths I learnt about circles and how to find the circumference of a circle and the diameter.  I also learnt about pi and I can recite the first six numbers 3.14159... though I don't know the rest.  In reading this week we learnt about point of view and I found it kind of easy except for when it come to Third person that where it trips me up.  I have finished my speech and put it on cue cards and I have almost finished my short story review.  I have been reading a series and I like it so much that I read a book a day and the books are pretty thick.  On Wednesday we did a first aid course where we learnt how to do CPR help someone in danger or injured.  We also learnt  how to bandage someone and what to say when calling an ambulance.  At the end we got a fist aid kit that had plastic tweezers.  In tech arts I finished painting my pillow case and then I started to sew the backing which included ironing and sewing on Velcro.

Review of Week 2

This week we did maths and we did metric measures and perimeter.  We have to also write an Analysis of a short story for reading and writing.  In tech arts I made a pencil case out of fabric and I made a second tennis ball.  I have almost finished my fox in extension art and last week I started on the fur strokes.  I am in the band festival doing percussion instead of the saxophone.  I am also going to Murray's Bay for a band camp soon.  In french we learnt about he things in the class room like exercise books and pencil cases. In soft materials I have also started on a pillow case design and I have done the draft and then I drew it onto fabric.  I have done well in cross country and so far I have done it quite quickly and I have been in the top few I think.

Term 2 Review and Term 3 Week 1

Term 2 Review

This term was fun.  I really enjoyed finishing the art tech arts and starting then finishing Hard materials. I made lots of plastic things and I even made A wooden box.  I got all of my work done and did it on time.  I did well in my fractions and decimals test as well. I did better than I thought I would.  I also did my holocaust visual art and I shared it and I did okay.  I have learnt a lot more when I came to intermediate and I hope to learn some more.  I am close to my bronze badge and I have about five more signatures to go.  I have almost finished my fox picture in extension art as well.

Term 3 Week 1 Review

This week we had the principal this week which was interesting and I'm glad to have Mrs Crowe back this week.  We did lots of cross country practice which I enjoyed except at the end when I couldn't breathe because of my Asthma.  I have finished my Student Led Conference and I've almost finished my speech.  I enjoyed tech arts and we are doing soft materials.  I made a tennis ball and we learnt about the different tools that we can use for sewing.
