Music

In music with Mr McCullum I have been learning to play the ukulele.

I'll know I've been successful when I hold the ukulele correctly and can strum the cords.



Something I learned was how to play the F cord and the F minor cord.

Taiao

In Taiao I have been learning about chickens. I have learned about the parts of a chicken, some facts about chickens, the parts of an egg (which I used to make an omelet), and what a chicken needs to be happy and healthy. Something I found hard was the chickens.

Creative Writing - Scripts

We are learning to write scripts to create a play.

We know we are successful if our script has:
- multiple characters
- a setting
- character speech
- stage direction (in a different colour to the speech)

Once we have written our scripts we are creating the plays using Puppet Pals.

My play is called "Meagan's Play"

Learner Qualities

I am learning how to empathise.

I'll know I can do this when I can identify a variety of ways I can show empathy to others.

I empathise by helping people.

Reading Pukeko

I am learning to to record key in formation.

I'll know I can do this when I can find and locate key information and record key information.

Next time I will make my SMLs neater.

Maths Tapatoru

I am learning to solve addition and subtraction problems by counting on or backwards in my head.
I'll know I can do this when I can solve addition and subtraction problems by counting on/back in my head in ones up to 100.
Something I found hard was the counting up and down in my head.

Art Don Binney

We are learning to create art inspired by Don Binney. I'll know I can do this when I have created a landscape with a foreground, middle, and background.

My bird and my background are coloured using pastels and natural colours.
Something I liked was doing the bird.
