Daffodil Diamante

I am learning to write a Diamante Poem 

  • use interesting (WOW) words to describe Daffodils 
  • use a graphic organiser to help me form my diamond poem


I only asked for a little help.  I could think of some good words.  Ghassan  30.08.17

Well done Ghassan, you have been able to use 'ing' words and some other WOW words in your poem.  Great writing effort this term.  Mrs Templeton  30.08.17

Learning to Make a Connection

I am learning to make a personal connection to the text.

  • think of a time when...


Reflection:  I was proud of how I did it and it wasn't too tricky but I was thinking and seeing the pictures made me remember what I saw in the museum.

Great work Ghassan, I love the way you discuss what you read and try to make personal connections.  Keep talking in your group to extend your skills.

Geometry: Classifying 3D shapes

I am learning to identify and name 3D shapes



Reflection:  It was easy to do because the pictures were not confusing and looked like their shapes.  The tricky part for me is thinking of the words to talk about these shapes .  I think I did very good.  Ghassan  18.08.17

Ghassan, I am very proud of the way you talked about your learning.  You are really improving the way you explain your thinking in Maths.  Well done.

Tā moko - Maori Patterns

In Term 2 and 3 we have been learning about Maori patterns.  We went to the Auckland museum and the Te Tuhi art gallery.  Look at my moko!
