week 8 and 9

 These few weeks have been really fun and I enjoyed all of the things we did including our first wood work session and school sining. I really enjoyed wood work because I enjoy all the things we did including using all of the machines like the belt sander, filer and all the other tools we got to use. I really I this stuff because I enjoy crafting things and for this term of wood work we are making trucks. So far we have completed the outside part of were the driver sits and  filed and belt sanded it. The next thing I need to complete is definitely the grill because this is the thing Mr graham marks our truck on. This has been really enjoyable so far and am looking forward to the next session. The past week I really struggled with my algorithms and had to take quite a lot of time to work and practise these but eventually I learned to understand how to complete these but am proud of myself for giving it ago and learnt a lot about completing these correctly and am confident about answering these questions. I am looking forward to the next few weeks especially camp because it will be a new experience and am looking forward to getting to know my class mates better and trying new experiences.

week 7

This week I really enjoyed all the things we did and am really looking forward to next week and the activities in the near future like camp Were we are staying at narrows park and I am really looking forward to doing that. This week we have started our brain inquiry and I am really enjoying that so far, Emily, Cheng Yu, Rowan, Jake Sophie and I are in a group and are so far really enjoying all of the information we have learned and Cheng Yu's big sister is a big help because she is studying to be a doctor and has helped our group out a lot with information we had no idea about. We also had our last session of soft materials which I really enjoyed and am looking forward to hard materials. In our last session of soft materials I completed my bag witch turned out amazing and am very proud of myself for completing it on time and also sad to leave but I am very excited for hard materials. I am looking forward to this because I really enjoy using machines and also hand crafting amazing things. The first thing we are making is a big truck. Overall I really enjoyed this week and am looking forward to the next.

Week 6

This week has been awesome I have really enjoyed it in all of they activities we did including jump jam which is one of my favourite activities because you are energetic and have an awesome time following awesome moves and have a fun time dancing and moving with your friends. you also use lots of energy which I really enjoy. This week we also did water safety and boat safety were we learned to always were  life jacket on a boat and also when we are fishing on rocks. Reasons for this are if a rouge wave comes in we can keep our head above water. we also learned how to throw out a safety rope for people that are struggling to swim can then be pull  back in. Next we learned how to stay safe and hopefully survive and if we are stuck in the ocean we are able to keep as much warmth as possible by forming a small ball of people and also good techniques to work as a team to move at a quick pace but not use all of your energy at once. At Tec arts I learned how to sow intricate shapes onto material and am nearly finished completing my bag and it will be ready hopefully by tomorrow when we have our next session of Tec arts. Overall I really enjoyed this week and am looking forward to the next.

week 5

This week I really enjoyed all the activities I participated in including swimming sports, were I tried my hardest to place the best I could in my own standard our house Puniu did especially well in swimming sports and placed first overall. I learned in class a lot about maths including correctly how to estimate multiples, divided byes, and takeaways this encouraged me to challenge myself in the work I complete and the tasks that I participate in. I had a high standard this week for my work and learnt a lot about sowing maths and writing including fan boys and awwwubiss words (might not be spelt write) and overall really enjoyed myself.

I learnt how to correctly sow a straight line on a sowing machine and tilt it and move it to go around a corner tidily and also back stich were you finish and start. I enjoyed all the tests we did because they were a challenge and I learnt lots about how far I can push myself in tests and that I need to take my time in the questions that I answer.

This week we also did a lot of tests including the vocabulary test witch I believe I did quite well in I also got good results in the other tests I participated in.
