Koru Games

Over the last 3 days the year 7&8 students went to the Koru Games. The sports were Netball, Football, Touch and Basketball. I participated Touch. I really enjoyed winning a few of our games because were were doing quite bad then at the end we tried our hardest and won our last couple of games. Thinking back to the beginning of the year, I really improved in taking the touch because I tried my hardest. I found the Koru Games fun because we played one of my favourite sports.

Writing Prove It Term 3

Is It Ever Ok To Lie?
Is it ever ok to lie?! Don't you remember when your parents told you that when you eat your crusts your hair goes curly, or that carrots help your eyesight. Well when I found out that it wasn't true I wanted to get my revenge! But I didn't want anyone to feel angry or upset. I don't want my parents to ground me, my friends to hate me or worse go to PRISON!!! I also don't want to be completely honest either; so that's why today I am going to tell you that it's NOT ok to lie!

My WALT: Ideas
The strategies I used were to use
~Rhetorical questions
~Bold ideas
~Example
~Tone, voice, register that reflects the purpose and audience.

My next step is to get a new writing goal.

My Maths Term 1

I think I have reached extended abstract because I think I did a good job explaining my maths goals.

My next step is to take an algebra test.

Reading Term 1 Goal

WALT: Make inferences.

An inference is where you read a text then you infer what is going to happen next or you think deeper about what you have read. I will give an example of how to infer.

" When I came home from school my mum told me I had to look after my little brother."  I can infer the feelings of the writer. I think she is annoyed that she has to look after her brother.

I think I reached extended abstract because I could infer a piece of a text and I could explain why the writer wanted me to infer there.
My next step is to have a conference with the teacher.
