This week we have been reading a story called The Matakiti And The Mokai. For the create task Freida’s mum Christie did weaving with the year 5 ‘s and 6’s. I found it a bit challenging because I was hard to make a plat with such hard material.

Have you ever platted with harakeke before?

Today we had to make a filmstrip from are Children Of The Rush book

I chose the part when Michael and his Father go out for tea

I SEE SOMETHING WHILE IM WALKING ALONG THE DUSTY GREEN RIVER> UNTIL I SEE SOMETHING BUT ITS VERY SMALL. I CANT READ BECAUSE IT WAS IN A THE KEY THAT OPENS THE DOOR TO MCDONALDS

ONCE UPON A TIME I WAS WALKING IN THE MACDONALDS MALL WHEN I SEE A KEY. I WENT TO PICK UP THE KEY WHEN I HEARD RONALD MC DONALD SAY TO ME” WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING WITH THAT KEY” I SAY QUIETLY, I, I, I DON’T KNOW, JUST SEEING WHAT IT SAYS ON THE KEY. THEN RONALD MC DONALD DOESN’T SAY ANYTHING BACK. I THEN STAYED QUIET FOR A FEW MOMENTS. I THEN PICK UP THE KEY ONCE MORE, NOTHING HAPPENS. I THEN TWIST THE KEY AROUND TO FIND IF THERE IS ANY WRITING ON THE KEY. ITS WRITTEN I CHINESE, AND SINCE MY FRIEND SPEAKS CHINESE HE TOLD ME SOME CHINESE WORDS. ON THE KEY IT SAYS” THIS KEY OPENS INTO A NEW MACDONALDS. I THEN DISAPERED AND NEVER SAW MY FAMILY AGAIN….

This term we were reading a book called, Children of the Rush. I was really interesting to find out about Micheal’s life and also Atarangi’s. You can see in my work (DLO) that my photo was the size of the area of where the miners mine for gold. The area of where the miners dig for gold was 7.5 meters. We had to work in a group, in my group I had Nova and Freida and of course me!

For Cyber-Smart we had to create a scratch game based on are Children of the rush novel for are reading. The person in the maze is trying to get to the goldfield and on the way she had to try and get gold. Have you ever made something on scratch game before and if you have what done something on scratch before what did you have to do on there? I hoped you liked it.

this is what I did for t shaped lit this week I hope u like it

Today we had CRT, I had Kathy and she did E pro 8. We had to make a fishing rod. In my group was Tahlia, Marshal and Tobias John. We worked well together because we all listen to each other. I am proud of my group because we finished the fishing rod and we were all excited. Have you ever made something out of the E pro 8 kit?

This weeks T-Shaped Literacy We are learned to read between the lines to find information the author has implied. It was fun doing the create, The create was we had to make a song. I thought that making the song was fun because you got to decide what you added into the song. Have you ever made a song before?
