Math - I have nearly finished the ratio work. I just need to do one more learning reflection to compete it all. Then, I can go on Mathletics instead of doing book work. I got really confused when I was doing the learning intention 'To use scale and ratio with problems', but then I realized I was converting measurements wrong. After that, I was completely fine. I somehow thought that there are 1000 centimetres in a metre instead of 100. I really need to buy a new maths book because I only have five fully blank pages left, and I'll use them up pretty soon. I think that I'll be able to do two-three more learning intentions in my book, and then that's it.
Writing - We have been told that our next piece of writing will be persuasive/argument. We were asked to come up with some topics to write about, but no-one really came up with anything. We'll probably end up doing one of the topics Mrs. Crowe came up with. We went over the structure and features of persuasive writing, and I came up with lots of features because I remembered them from last year.
Reading - Our next reading task writing a book review, and we went over the structure of one. Some people have already started, but I don't know what book to do. I'll probably do the book I'm reading at the moment, called 'The Siren' by Kiera Cass. I'm only halfway through it, but I think I'll finish it soon. It's a really good book. It isn't the type of siren that goes wee-woo-wee-woo like a police car.
Maori - We finished making our children's books, and some groups presented theirs. My group hasn't presented ours yet, so we'll present it next week.
Tech Arts - On Tuesday, the usual teacher wasn't there, so we had Mrs. Germann. I liked having her there because she let us do our own thing and practice things we were stuck on. We played on the keyboard, drums and guitar. We had to make up our own jigs, so I did mine as simple as possible.
Extension Art - I spent the whole lesson doing the wash on my canvas for my portrait. It was so boring. I had to get his palest skin colour. I made Mrs. Dixon do it for me.
40 Hour Famine - I am going to do the 40 Hour Famine this weekend with my friend Megan. I will be at her house all weekend, and we will be giving up our our right hands.
Indoor Bowls - We had our indoor bowls lesson on Wednesday with a few experienced men. Three people from my group were chosen, and some other people were chosen too. I don't really like indoors bowls.
Dishes - I was on dishes with Arden, not my usual partner, Grace. We were on together because nobody had done it all Monday, so Mrs. Crowe picked us to do it.
Jump Jam - Same old same old. I was doing dishes so I didn't find out what class won.
French - We revised some of the stuff we had already learnt, and we learnt how to say different kinds of weather.
Religious Instruction Assembly (R.I) - Some kids went on stage and pretended to be part of our solar system. I can't remember what the moral of doing this was, but there was one.
Science Fair - I am going to buy my Science Fair board next week. I have sorted out my information so I can print it out. I think I will check it before I do actually print it though.
Winter Games - I played Corner Ball with my friends Jess and Emelia. It was fun, but we didn't do much.
