Big Daddy Task

WALT unpack sentences faster.
Every week I will be posting something from our Reading tasks. This week we have to post about the task we did. We had to choose one of the Synthesis questions. I chose 7. For that task I had to write a paragraph about what I think Big Daddy's point of view. The book that we were reading this week was The Big Jump. I wrote a paragraph of Big Daddy's point of view.

Here is my paragraph:

It was so high. I could see the classes. But what I was really worried about was hitting the pole at the end. I knew that if I cried when I got down I wouldn't be called Big Daddy. People will call me Cry baby. Sandra tries to help but I just grunt. 

The boy behind me is the only one that will know how I was scared. Sandra and the boy start strapping me again, but I didn't really care. 

I went down with this guy and he got hurt bad. I told the others I had to help him come down because they asked why we took forever. I helped him up which was a thank you. He knew that was the only thank you he'll ever get.

Culture and Tradition

In class for intergrated learning (Intergrated learning is a bunch of things all together) we have been learning about culture and traditions. Our first lesson was to write what we think culture and tradition mean. The second lesson was to find out about the national flower of our cultures. My culture is Tonga and the national flower is a Heilala. We had to make a Slideshow explaining about ourselves and about our family, culture and traditions.

Here is my Slideshow:





This is my slideshow. The last slide tells you a little bit about the flower.

In class for our reading task as you know we have been posting information webs. This time I got a teacher to go through my work before I posted it to see if I wrote enough information. I also got two other students to see if there was enough information. One of them said its good. The other said that I just need to make sure I don't repeat.

Here is my mindmup:

Let me know if there is anything I need to work on!

My Taonga

In class we have been doing some intergrated learning. For intergrated learning we have been drawing some things that are special to us. Taonga means something that is very precious and very special to you. We got to choose if we wanted to draw on paper or do it digitally. I wanted to do it by hand.
The yellow heart is my friends. The cross is church. The orange thing is a blanket that I've had since I was a baby. The picture is me and my family. The flag is my culture. Those are the things that are the most special things to me.

Zookeeper for a Day

In class for term four the class started back as normal. For our reading tasks I fogot what an information web was but then I looked back to my work from last term and then I found it a little bit easier to understand. At first I thought we had to make a story map but we had to make a Information Web. A information web is information about the story. Our story was a non-fiction story. It was called zookeeper for a day.

Here is my Mindmup:

Shared Writing

In class we were put in groups of 3. This was for our writing task. I had four people in my group because there was an extra person. We had to write a story all together on a shared slideshow and then what we had to do next was to make it a picture book. I worked with Tini, Tyler and Liam. We used the storybook topics. Our topic was about a villain escaping a dragons lair.       Here is my DLO:

My Powtoon

In class we have been using powtoon. We are just getting used to using it because for some people in the class they have just started using powtoon. Powtoon is not that hard to use. But to post it onto our blogs we have to screen castify it because you can't download the video. We had a choice to do it about all the Cerr Values or just one Cerr Value. I chose to do all the Cerr values. It was hard at first but when you use it a lot it gets easier.

Here is my Video:
