The Tale of the Titanic

In Storybytes we have been reading about the Titanic. When the Titanic sank it was very sad and it was very hard to get information because the music in the background of the videos was very dramatic. We had to find information about the Titanic then write about it in our own words. I made a slideshow about the Titanic. I hope you enjoy it.

The Morepork

In class we had to pick an animal to research and write about. Ryan,Chloe and I picked the morepork. In my group we finished it really fast because we were working together. Here is a slideshow about the morepork. I hope you enjoy it.

Stop Motion Animation

When Mrs Hahn was our teacher for the day we had to work with Room 2. We had to make a Stop Motion Animation slideshow about two house groups racing. Mine was Pukeko vs Tui. I hope you enjoy it.

Pompeii

In Storybytes we read a story about a city called Pompeii. Pompeii got covered in ash and pumice rock. We had to think about what we would hear,see,smell,taste and felt if we were one of the people who got away. I hope you enjoy it. 

Clothing Combination

In maths we have been learning about combinations. We had to make a Google drawing about what clothes you can wear and say how many combinations you can get. This is a Screencastify of Solly and I telling you how many combinations you can get. I hope you enjoy it.

Kaikōura

In class we have been learning about Maori. We had to pick a Maori place name and show what it means and how to say it. This is my Screencastify about Kaikoura. I hope you enjoy it.

What I need to work on, where I'm at and what I need to do to write a report

To write a report I need to research a topic, write in paragraphs and know if the research is correct. I need to work on making the sentences make sense and to work on punctuation. I liked writing about animals and getting to know how they live and to learn about them. The hardest thing would be getting enough information for the paragraphs and putting in punctuation. I can write about something that I know lots about and write lots about it . For me to get better I look at what people said about my writing on my blog and if they say I have made mistakes it makes me want to fix them.

What I think about working in a group

It is harder to work in a group than by myself because in a group people that I worked with wrote things that I did not know about. We were very fast when we wrote the report. Well I think people in my group could have been less distracted and focused on their paragraphs. We need to make everyone know what each person is doing, more than one person can help someone and their is no laughter that could distract other people or yourself .
