Week 10 Term 2

Well It's week 10 and nearly the school holidays which is probably good for me as I need a rest. In the first week I get to spend four or five days down in New Plymouth for the U15 Netball Rep Tournament. This week for the past few days we have had 40 students down from Belmont Intermediate in Auckland for a sports exchange which took place on Wednesday which I didn't get to see because I was away sick with a cold. In band this week we had a very special person from America come and help us with a song for a concert next Tuesday with the College band ,Waikato Youth Band ,and the Waikato Schools Band ,and in total their will be about 180 people participating in this but I am not one of them as I am already to busy on that night. Well that's all for now see you next week.

Week 9 Term 2

Bonjour
This week I have done sooo much. In maths I have done how to find volume ,and I am nearly on to how to find capacity for maths. We did indoor bowls on Wednesday and also started our second student led conference report. This week we have had a lot of students out for the production and tonight is the last night. I saw the Production on Tuesday and it was AMAZING. On Friday we had Inter house Jump Jam and I'm the reporter for that I really hoped Mangapiko would win!! But sadly Waikato won and beat us by 6 points to make us get second. Congratulations to everyone who took part. Here is a photo from Fridays Jump Jam and the atmostphere of it.

Passion Hour

This term our class have been doing a Passion Hour. I decided to do cross stitch it is really fun and what I am doing is going to look great when it is finished. Here are a few photos of what I have done so far.

This is something I have already finished

This is the start of my next project. 

 

 This is the handle for my project I have now finished this part of it.


I hope you like it I will post more photos as I start completing it a bit more.

Week 8 Term 2

For the last two weeks we have been very busy. We have done a lot of maths, note taking, French, jump jam and this week Rowan and I have been doing dishes while the year 8's have been at Production. Here is a quick video of our Jump Jam last week.

On Friday we had Woodwork and we started making lights with batteries little led lights and some wire it was really fun but I haven't finished yet. Next week the Production is on and today at school singing we got a little sneak peek of the end scene it looks really cool I can't wait to see it. I hope everyone is liking my blog I know that I enjoy writing it.

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.

Week 5 Term 2

Salut, Je m'appelle Hadlee! Tu t'appelles comment

Je m'appelle Mya

Comment ca s'ecrit

Ca s'ecrit  M-em  Y-egrake  A-a

Ah beintot. Au revoir Mya

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.

Au revoir

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
