22nd June Test
Yesterday and Today my class and I had to do a test on maths. In this test were all of the things we've learnt in the past months. In both tests I have achieved 4A and to me that isn't really what I wanted, I wanted to go into the 5's because even last term I got a 4A. Nevertheless, I am still happy with my test results and hopefully tomorrow I get a higher mark and improve my score.

Today Mrs Petersen picked eight students to be in a group together with Miss Myers. Miss Myers is a training teacher, so that means that she is learning to be a teacher. This year is her third year of teaching an next year she can have her own classroom which she can use to actually teach children. Today we had to be in a group with her and we did some reading with her. The text we read with her was called, Ngatu, this passage was really interesting and fun to read. We all learnt some new vocabulary in Tongan like tutu, ngatu, koka'anga, feta'aki and more. This text was about keeping the tradition alive and the tradition was making ngatu. Ngatu is a traditional Tongan mat, which they use for special occasions like weddings, birthdays, funerals, births and a lot more. This text was really connecting because I've also seen my mum and grandmother make ngatu, and it was interesting to watch them make it. Unfortunately, I had forgotten the process of making it, but luckily we read this passage because now I have gained the memories from Tonga and now know the process of making ngatu. I would like to thank Miss Myers for coming into our class today and thank her for the amazing lesson we had with her. It was fun learning with her and reading this text.

Hello fellow bloggers, here is another amazing, high quality blog post. Today we had Technology again and in class we made popcorn chicken and potato wedges. It was divine, I didn't have breakfast this morning but luckily we made a full course meal. This made me so full I didn't even finish it, so I saved it for my siblings. I had so much fun today, and sadly I didn't come to school last Tuesday because of personal reasons, and they made some really good looking food.

Today the class and I had to make a Google Form about coconuts and its uses. Feel free to fill in my form and maybe learn something new. I hope you enjoy filling it in and please comment your experience, and also comment if it was hard or not.
In class we are currently focusing on procedural writing and basically what that is, is telling the person or group a list of instructions like instructions to a place, a recipe, rules of a game and many more. Last week we had to make an advertisement of a traditional food we picked and I picked otai, so we had to make an advertisement about that food and make it like we are actually selling it. We had to put the time and date its going to happen and insert some pictures, and also say what we are going to sell on the menu, so this is my advertisement in the slideshow above.

Last week we were reading a book called The Strength of Roots, and what this book is telling you is that the roots of a tree is strong because there was a boy that was caught in a tsunami and was washed up all the way into the top of a tree. This a an interesting book, and in the slideshow above is a animation I've created a few days ago but never posted it, so here it is. Enjoy!

In class we were learning about angles and in my opinion it was really fun learning new angles. To be honest I already knew what these angles were, but this really help refresh my mind. In the slideshow above is a little DLO about angles, sorry I lied about it being a little slideshow there is a lot of words and slides to go through, so might as well get comfy and get a snack because it's a little to long.
