Week 6 Term 2

Wow I'm so tired, this week has gone soooooo fast on Wednesday we had Mufti Day and this theme was first response, and their was some cool costumes we had someone dressed up as a nurse from the army and St Johns ambulance officer a patient and much more. On Tuesday we had our first session with Mr Monk at woodwork its was so cool we made spinning tops and I made a H and a circle one but my H snapped in my bag I was so gutted when I broke so today when we go back I'm going to make a double layer one so it won't snap.In maths we have been doing percentages and this morning we did a test on area which was hard and confusing because I haven't done much on area.We have started doing note taking on a book for an information report that we will be doing my animal I chose is a... Orangutan!!!! these creatures are amazing. I can't wait to write about them.

Au revoir Hadlee

This week I learnt how to have a conversation in FRENCH and I'm pretty good so by the time next year comes around and I go to Noumea, I will be a pro. In maths this week I have learnt how to show one number as a fraction of another and to find the whole number of a given fraction. Eg for how to show one number as a fraction of another, 1mtr is 20cm first of all you need to change the metre into cm so 1000 cm is 1 mtr this fraction would be           20          then the next thing you do is see if you can simplify this number a

                                                  1000

and you can the easiest number you can simplify this by is 20 so 20 divided by 20 is 1 and 100 divided by 20 is 5 so therefore the final fraction is      1 

                                                               5

The next one is how to find a whole from a given number  Eg      2     is 8 now when you work this out you 

                                                                                                 3

need to find   1    to do this you need to do 8 divided by 2 = 4 so if 1 third is 4 and two thirds is 8 the whole 

                    3

must be ...   to work this out all you do is 4 times 3 = 12 therefore the whole number is is 12.

In other news our new class furniture turned up yesterday we got two small tables for the mat and little cookie cushions to go with it.

Week Four Term 2

Bonjour Everyone, 

This week has been really fun and exciting because our clay jandals arrived the ones that we molded then got sent to a kiln where they were fired so they would go hard so we could paint then, then we had to under-glaze them and glaze them with this white glaze that makes them shiny then again they were sent back to the kiln to get fired ready for us to bead them.I can still do my watercolour art until I get to bead my jandal. I am really close to getting another SHINE band I can't wait till I get another one.A couple of weeks ago I trialled for the Te Awamutu year 7 Representative team and got in again and by again I mean that last year I got in to the Year 6 Reps and so I was stoked when I found out I got in this year as well.We have our first rep tournament next Sunday I hope that this year we will have another winning streak.

Yay, I didn't think that I would do it today but I did, I finally beaded my jandal!!!! 
Here is a photo of the finshed product!!!

I am so Happy with my jandal

Week 3 Term 2

The past two weeks for me have been extremely busy and exciting for me as last week I went to band camp for two days (Wednesday and Thursday). Cambridge Middle School and Matamata Intermediate came to T.A.I for the two days to participate with us We were in four groups Beginner band, Senior band, Choir and the Drumline. For two days we practiced songs to perform for the Parents of Matamata, Cambridge and Te Awamutu on the Thursday night we had one big huge concert and the tutors even did a piece it was so much fun.Thank you to everyone who came to help and support us for those two days it was awesome.On Monday I got my first shine band it is yellow with white writing that says "I show Respect" I am so excited I can't wait to get my next one.Today I had my second trial for AIMs netball and I am hoping to get in but if I don’t there is always next year.Our jandals arrived for art today and next week when we have finished our water paint we get to bead them so they look like real jandals they are going to look so cool.
