Why it's great to be me

Today in LS2 we have been exploring DARE. We had to find out a bit more about ourselves. We then, got into groups and made a word cloud on why it is great to be the age we are currently(11 - 13). One thing I learnt about myself was what my goals are. One of them was that I wanted to the greatest fighter in the world. One reason I like being the age I am now, is that I can set myself up for the future, if I continue to work hard in school.

Tech

Today at tech we have completed our clocks and are starting a new rotation next week. The design that I choose for my clock is a pizza. First we had to finish painting our clocks and the side of our side pieces. Next we glued our pieces together. Then Mrs Ferguson and Mrs Anderson put the clock mechanisms inside our clocks. We then let the glue dry.

Reciprocal Reading Evaluation DLO

For reading this week Fraidoon taught us how to do reciprocal reading. We were recorded having a learning conversation. The next day we watched the video to see what we did. I saw that I was on task and was working well with my group. I think that I need to work on asking more questions when I am unsure of something and to talk a little bit more.

Career DLO

Yesterday LS2 have started creating a DLO about what job we wanted to do. I decided that I wanted to be a police officer. But I know that it is going to take a lot of work to get to my target. I have been searching online to find good information to put on my work. The difficult part of this activity was to find how much money you get paid an hour or week.

Flex tangle art

Today we made a Flex tangle which is 4d pattern which we made using folded paper we thought carefully about the colours we chose. We chose to do hot colours on one side and cold colours on the other side the reason we did this is because contrasting colours stand out more and make the art pop more. 

Kate Sheppard sketchnote.

For reading we have been learning about Kate Sheppard and the women's suffrage movement. The suffrage movement happened over one hundred years ago. In our sketch note we have added in some definitions of words and have answered some questions. For this task I worked with Aj, Lyndon and Daniel. We all had to talk with each other about our learning so that everyone knows what we have been learning about.

Kate Sheppard DLO

For this task we had questions that we had to answer. I worked with Aj, Daniel and Lyndon to complete this DLO. It is about Kate Sheppard and the suffrage movement. We had to do a lot of talking to get this done because everyone had to know what they were doing. Talking helped us get this finished because we had to talk to see if it makes sense.
