this is my screenshot of my (maintenance) Games.
I have been leaning about multiplication and division.  I went on Sumdog and played multiplication games.  It was cool.  

Today Mrs Grant came to our class and taught us about editing photo's. This is a photo that I edited today.  I took a picture of myself and used the loop tool to cut around it.  Then I placed my picture on a photo of the Abu Simbel Temple.  It looks like I "went" to Egypt and saw the Abu Simbel Temple.

We have been learning about how we get day and night.  This is what I found out:

Submarine Adventure by Roderick Hunt

Into the Pyramid by Tony Bradman and Jon stuart
Today I read this book online. It was written by Tony Bradman. I was learning to identify and know why different text types are used. 

We learned how to take a screenshot of ourselves, edit it in Pixlr and put it on the Egypt
picture. It was fun.

We have been learning how to leave a positive digital footprint. We know we are doing this because leaving good, quality comments is important. Here is a comment I have left. It is a specific comment.

Today my class was learning how to edit photos using pixlr.We learnt pixlr from Ms Grant.I uploaded a photo of me and then I cut the background.I found a photo of a pyramid and then I put my photo on to the photo of the pyramid.

The following week she talked to us about the belts. There is a white belt, a yellow belt, a green belt, a blue belt, a red belt and a black belt. On that week she taught us how to do a front snap kick. In the last week we had to break a board ourselves. It was really hard but then SNAP the board broke. I was really happy because it was so much fun and I hope Mrs Robinson will come back again.

Yesterday we learnt how to make a cog and use more than one cog together. We also spun one of them to move the other one. Mr. Ramkolowan taught us how to make the cogs and how to make all of them move. It was fun because we had to cut the cardboard into a circular shape. Then we drew the teeth and cut it out. Next we had to stick our pencil into it to make it spin. It was so cool when we played with it at the end. Nearly our whole class played together with every ones cogs. Ifa and I had the second smallest cogs.

Swimming



When we went swimming I saw the coaches. I was very excited. First they had to test us. When they were testing us I had to partner up with Kaufana.

We had to swim half a length of the pool and then come back. The coaches said that Kaufana and I were in group two. The coaches told us that they will always come on Tuesdays and Thursdays to coach us.

Although I love swimming, sometimes I forget to bring my togs and sometimes I don’t feel like swimming, especially if it is cold. Before we start to swim we always have to have a shower and when we get into the pool we have to go our coaches.

I love to go swimming because it helps you if you are stuck in the middle of the sea. If you can’t swim you will drown.    

Toys can work by a push, a pull, a spin, a press or some toys work by winding them. This toy in the picture works by a press. This toy came from McDonald's. It is very old. It can work by pressing the palm tree on top. There is a spring inside that forces the chair to sway back and forth. It is a fun toy to play with!

Learning how to swim


 

Learning how to swim is very important to everyone in the world, so that is why we have swimming coaches at our school. Every week on Tuesdays and Thursdays Glen Innes aquatic center coaches come to our school and teaches us how to swim. It is so important to learn how to swim because if you're out in the water and panicking you just might drown. Our swimming coaches teach us a lot and I go to all swimming lessons therefore I am very good at swimming. So you should learn how to swim too.      

Walt: write a narrative

One day there was a Polyfest. It was in Auckland. Me my mum and my brothers and sisters went to the Polyfest. It was awesome. When we got there I got hungry so we went to buy some kebabs. It was delicious.

A Polyfest is a day that  all the cultures get to perform on stage. It is very scary to perform on stage because if you make a mistake the audience will laugh.  

I was tired and I went to sleep although it was very loud but when I woke up my parents were gone and I was lost. I ran very fast to the security guard, I told him I was lost and I am looking for my parents.

Then I saw my parents. They were in the car sleeping. Me and the guard went to the car and knocked on the window. My mum woke up and said “where have you been?” 

I said “Looking for you, Mum.” 

My mum said “Come lets go now, I am very sleepy.”    

Swimming is a good so you don't drown.  At school we go swimming everyday. On Tuesdays and Thursdays we have coaches that teach us swimming. I am in the third group which is the highest group.  Learning to swim is easy if you listen.  First, if you don't know how to swim, you start with a board then with no board.  After all that you learn how to breath. Finally you can swim.

This is me.
