Summarizing Strategy...

My class and I have been learning to summarize. Summarizing is just putting all the main ideas of a text or paragraph into a nutshell. I think I can pretty confidently summarize without any help. It is pretty easy to do once you know it but takes some effort to learn it.      

The Battle Of Kororareka

 We are learning about the battle of Kororareka. This slide shows when it happened, why it happened, where it happened, what the article is about, who was involved and other things I found interesting. I find this really interesting and hope to find out more about the topic.   

 

People Of The Past...

We are learning about important people that played a big role in our past. We made a booklet full of people and write facts and key aspects of them so we can quiz other people. I want to quiz the smartest people I know. I also want to find out more about chief Kawiti.

What Is Wisdom?

This term we are learning about wisdom. This poster shows what I know about wisdom and what it means to be wise. Being wise is something that not all people can do, I try my hardest to be wise and to help other people to be wise. I hope this poster encourages you to do the same.

 

2020 Reflection

2020 What A year!!

Wow, 2020 has been a tough year to say the least. Term one and two was just a shambles with all our different teachers, there was not much learning at all. And with Covid when we were back at school there were no sports or leaving school grounds. But stuff started to get better in term three when whaea Lana came back and we got back into a routine. Now it is fun because now we do fun stuff like lots of sport, technology, trips and we have more to come. Something that challenged me was maths; it definitely isn't my strong point. I want to do more sports and go on more fun trips. I was involved with almost every out of class activity. I’m proud of myself for trying my best in my academic learning and sports. 

RIPPA RUGBY

 RIPPA RUGBY...

This term a rippa rugby team was put together to represent K.C.S in a rippa tournament at the Kaikohe rugby club. Thank you to Komene (our coach,) the people who came to support us and the people who hosted the event. I enjoyed it because it was a chance to get out of class and do something I really love. I think what helped our team succeed was our moves and the fact that we had a healthy supply of subs. I think I could’ve improved on getting my rips because I was missing quite a few.

Our Coding Trip

 This term our class went to Waitangi treaty grounds to learn about coding. It was a good way of learning about coding and we had loads of fun.
