WW1 Christmas truce

 Kia Ora Bloggers,

This week and last week for literacy we have been learning about ANZAC day. Our task this week was to watch the videos and read the text about the WW1 Christmas truce. Once we had read and watched what we needed to we had to write a report about it.

I have enclosed my report so you can have a read-through. I haven't quite finished it yet.

I used google docs to create this and I used Mrs. Kerin's pieces of text to get the information from.

I don't usually enjoy learning about history but I enjoyed learning about this topic.

Did you learn anything from my report? I would love to know what you learned!

The Genie of the Lamp

 Kia Ora bloggers!

This term I've been involved in the production. This year the production is Aladdin. There were lots of characters and I became a side-main character. I am Manal, Jasmine's handmaiden.

When we aren't in the scene that is practicing, we have to work on a google slide. On this slide, we have lots of activities that we can do.  I have attached this slide so you can see all of the activities.

The activity I decided to do was creating a pixel art of my favorite character. I chose to do the Genie.

This is my almost finished Pixel Art.

I haven't finished my lamp quite yet, but next time I post you will probably see the finished product.

Have you watched the movie Aladdin? Have you ever been in a production before?

Fun ANZAC Day activities

 Kia Ora bloggers!

Welcome back to my blog! In literacy for weeks 1, 2, and 3 we have been delving a bit deeper into ANZAC day. Do you know what ANZAC stands for? We have to complete a minimum of 7 tasks in the 3 weeks we have got to complete them. I have enclosed my slide with all of the activities we could do, the activities I have completed, and the stories on it. You can have a look at it and do some of the activities too.

I found it quite interesting learning about Gallipoli. Did you know that all of the countries have mascots and they are all live animals? I didn't know that! 

Sources: My sources were google and the slide Mrs. Kerin made.

Learning to write a e-mail

 Kia Ora bloggers!

Today we learned how to write a professional email.

Our first task was to write an email to our homebase teacher about weather or not we would like to have pets on public transport. I said yes because when I go on a bus in the future I would like to bring my dog with me.

This is my e-mail I sent to Miss Roberts. I have labeled all of the different parts on a professional email.   

Have you written a professional email before? If you have who did you email?

Ka kite see you next time!

Camp Goal

 Welcome back to my blog!

A couple of weeks ago we went to living springs camp as I may have mentioned in another post and before we went we all had to set a goal for camp. We had to write it on a slide.

This is my slide

Have you made a goal before?

Tsunami play with Holly, Amelia, Lucy and I

 Hello Bloggers!

For literacy this week we have had half an hour to do some freewriting each morning and Holly, Lucy, Amelia and I are working on a play together. It is just a draft so it is not finished yet.

This is our draft. Child 1 is Amelia, Child 2 is Lucy, Tsunami 1 is Amelia, Tsunami 2 is Amelia, Tsunami 3 is Amelia, and I am the narrator.

I think this is a pretty good draft for us as I have never written a play before.

Do you have any feedback for me? I will take them and use your feedback to make it better.

Ka Kite see you next time! 

Who is your favourite Korimako teacher? 🎓

Hello bloggers, 

A couple of days ago in maths we were told to think of a question like  favourite colour, favourite food, sport or something like that. My question was who is your favourite Korimako teacher. (As you have probably already figured out.) Then make a google form about it and then send it out to all the people in Korimako. And finally once we had got all the answers we had to put them into a graph.

This is my form if you want to fill it out you can

Did you fill it out?

If you did who did you pick?

Do you have any feedback to me for my form?
