June Reflection

We are reflecting on our June work.

I found it easy to share my reflection with Save.

I found it hard to do the commenting on Save's.

Pattern Ball - P.E.

We are learning to communicate and work as a team.
We worked out the plan.
We started with a pink ball. Ocean started off with the pink ball and Kayla has a green ball that is a rugby ball. We had one more ball that was blue. It was a soccer ball and Myah started off with the soccer ball.
We found it easy to figure out our pattern.
I found a tricky to remember who I was passing to.

Matariki

Matariki

What is matariki? Matariki is a group of stars who are sisters.
There are nine sisters at night you can see a group of stars twinkling
in the skies. 

Only in June you can see them.
The nine stars are called, Matariki, Pohutukawa, Waiti, Waita,
Waipuna-a-Rangi, Tupuanuku, Tuarangi, Ururangi, and Hiwa-i-te-Rangi.
Maori people celebrate Matariki by enjoying food, songs, games and
haka as a family. It is a time to remember the people who have passed away,
and to celebrate new life into their families. 

Matariki New Year

Today we were learning about Matariki.
I enjoyed listening to the fact that there's nine and not 7.
I found tricky to understand half of it.
Next time I would write about another celebration.

Time table

We were learning to do our times table.
We are learning two each week.
This week I am learning

Martas Journey

This week in reading we were reading about a Refugee, Her name is Marta. She was from a country where there were bombs dropped from planes, onto their house, family, friends and pets. Some people survived, and escaped to New Zealand. Marta and her mum live together in New Zealand.
In my drawings it shows before she came to New Zealand, She drew buildings on fire and planes dropping bombs. In the after picture Marta had drawed it has a new school, a new house, and she drew her new friend.

I enjoyed reading this story, because it tells me more information about refugees.
I found it hard to read some of the words in the story.

Ahmet the refugee boy - Comic Strip.

This week we were learning to use different visual language features.

I enjoyed finding the pictures.

I found a tricky to do the words.

My online digital learning object shows that I can make a comic using Google slides.

we were learning how to change the background of our blog and change the total of our blog .

Torch challenge

We were learning to make a torch from two batteries six wires, insulation tape, tin foil, a piece of card, and a little light bulb. Our group found it tricky to make it glow. we found it easy to tape the wires to the batteries. next time we will read the instructions.

We are learning to recognise homophone There is used to refer to a place. Their means belonging to them. they're is a contractions meaning they are

Pentecost

Jesus's followers gathered together when a strong wind blew in. Then flames floated above their Heads. They could speak different languages. People gathered around the house and they listened to the word of God.

I found it easy to make the flame and dove.
I found it tricky to think of all the words to explain Pentecost.

This picture is of the flame. Fire represents the Holy Spirit. If you turn it sideways its going to be a dove. The dove is also a symbol of the Holy Spirit.
