Week 4 Term 1

Hi,
This week we continued doing our tests and have completed most of them, but we have a few more to do. On Monday we learned who had gotten the position of class Councillor and also who has managed to acquire the position of house captain. This week I learned to round numbers to a significant figure in maths and I also re learned place value. In tech arts this week I learned to make a seam correctly knowing this i can now make sure all of my cut out fabric edges are not messy and are to a high standard. I also learned to sew shoulder seems together correctly so they are straight. have leaned many new techniques to use during sowing and I am happy with my progress in making my jersey. I learned a lot about the history of Mt Everest like when Edmund Hillary and his partner arrived at the summit of Mt Everest, where it is located and many other facts. overall I have enjoyed this week thoroughly and am looking forward to the next week.

Week 3 Term 1

During the past week was the danish rounders competition. It was a difficult competition but we managed to make it into the finals that take place today we are hoping to win but its going to be difficult. we are going to have to play smart and try our hardest to take the win. We are versing room 13. During danish rounders I have learned many new skills like the rules, techniques for hitting the ball etc. During class time I have took many tests and figured out where I am academically in a few subjects, tests will continue throughout this week. During tech arts this week I have learned to sew on a machine again, how to thread a sewing machine and many techniques for cutting material out. This past week we also learned softball techniques And I learned that anyone can get someone out, and if you angle your feet into a different direction you are able to hit it in a different direction.  

week 1/2 Term 1

The first few weeks have been interesting and very fun I enjoyed meeting all of the year 7's in our class and they all seem really cool. We are beginning to do our start of year tests so that at the end of the year we can revise and see how much we have improved since the beginning of the year. I am looking forward to taking part in all the activities provided including sports, wims, hopefully sports camp and i'm hoping to get into aims. settling back into class was fun, but having a holiday and not doing work everyday has made me forget some of my skills and techniques for maths, reading and writing. I hope to regain these skills over the following terms and improve in everything I do. In tech we have began to make our jerseys and i have learnt most of the international shipping signs. so far we have planned our jersey and made the design cut outs. I have really enjoyed the first few weeks at school and am looking forward to the rest of the year.
