Kahoot.it

For our last election task we had to create a kahoot quiz with at least 10 question based on the elections. Thank you to Fraidon group for sharing their kahoot with LS2. One of the questions we had to answer was who is the leader for the Labour party. I think learning about elections is amazing and enjoyable.

What Is A Coalition?

Today LS2 was discussing about the election on Saturday. The problem with the election is that Labour and National do not have enough sets so they are waiting for the New Zealand first (Winston Peters). Tiava, Ofa, Mataio and I learnt what a coalition is. My group learnt that a coalition is when the little group of parties is aligned with the bigger parties to gain more seats for them to become the Prime Minister. We also learnt who our MP is for our local area.

reading activities

Yesterday my reading group showed Miss Apelu from Tamaki College how we find the main ideas in our learning. In LS2 we use the negotiating game that Mrs Anderson taught us to do this. First we write down the ideas we think are the main points, then we have a learning conversation together to share our thinking and make the choice together. Miss Apelu thought we did a good job!

Zane - making connections

Today for reading we read a book called a Tour Like No Other. It was a very interesting book. it was talking about when  the All Blacks played South Africa. There was a problem because the South African didn't allow the Maori's to play so there was a lot of protesting. There were two protesters that stole a plane and  doped flour bombs and flares and did you know one of the flour bombs doped on a player. But after that they were  jailed for months.

Zane - Making Connections to when the wind blows

Making Connections

 

L.I. Identify connections text to text, text to world and text to self

Text to text	Text to world	Text to self
Something I have read or watched that is like this is...	Something I know about that is like this is...	My reaction to this story is...
I have read a book called Where Poppies Blow  by John Lewis-Stempel and there are plenty more like this book.I think that you should read the book when the wind blows.	The feud happening between south Korea and USA, if south Korea bombs the USA the USA is going to wipe them out.	This is like the feud between my sister and me. she always wins and there is a phone that i don’t get a turn on.

Reduce Reuse Recycle thinking

Today for inquiry Sky, Shakaia, Josh and  Harlem.

it was very hard because we had to look at 2 links one was the kiwi kids news and the other one was kiwis are bad at reclining

Ight words

Today I was working with my group for reading and we had to do ight words  and my group done this as well and it was fun to do  

Making Connection

Today I have been practicing making connections. The connection we have to a text will help us understand the information.There are three types of connection ; text to text , text to world , text to text.

Reduce Reuse Recycle

Today I created this poster about what I think Reduce Reuse Recycle means. I had to check 3 sites for the same information and if it was the same I could use it. I think reduce means to use less of one thing, reuse means to use something more than once, and recycle means to use something again in a different way.

Current Events - ivory

Today Mataio and I read about why China is going to ban sales of ivory by the end of the year. I think they have made this choice to save animals with tusks and horns being killed by poachers. I hope by shutting down the 34 factories and 138 shops that make and sell ivory it stops this happening.

Chunky Challenge - Zane

Today I worked with Mataio, Calvin, Eric, Oh Hsen and Mrs Anderson to find words that had the 'ake' chink in them. We practised using some of our ake words by writing a simple, compound and complex sentence, then we put them on a word cloud.

Affonso and Zane

to day I work with Affonso and we had lost of fun I am fast at the 6v stack and he is fast at the 3 stack

No one knew...

I put my harness on and I got it done up fast so I was ready to climb. My heart was racing as I stepped onto the ladder.

I went first so no one would know I was scared of heights. I started climbing and climbed all the way up the ladder. When I got to the top and I slowly walked across the log trying to keep my balance but I wasn't balanced fell. Luckily I was fine. I walked across and looked down. It was double the size of when I was on the ground! I was frightened!

I could see the falls, it was an amazing view well even if it had mud in it. I got on my knees and started doing push ups. They were hard because I had no room to put my hands anywhere. I did 2 but the person who did the best did 20.

Then it  was time to come down. It was so dangerous because I almost hit my head on the log.

When I got back down to the ground I could feel the adrenaline going through my body. I felt really happy but I inside I was freaking out!

This is my recount of my best 5 minutes of camp. We had to use our words to paint a picture in the mind of the reader to recount our experiences.

Maths Man

Today for maths we had to play a maths game called Maths man it was a fun game it was a bit challenging when it got to the higher levels. In the low levels the ghost weren't moving that fast but when it got to the higher levels that got really fast our highest level was level 8. I hope we can play this game again sometime.
