Xtramaths Certificate!

This is my certificate award on Xtramths. Starting of begining of the term, maths was really hard for me until I used a website called Xtramaths. It has helped my because it tells how well am I am going and it shows my progress. Also it shows my next step for me. I am proud of my self because I use to be below and I am at the top.What I had to do to achieve this was I had to get all the promblems correct and answer them fast. My next goal is to work hard on timetables and move on to divison. I can't wait to see your comments.

My reflection about genius hour!

This is my reflection about Genius Hour. It is about what I was doing and why was I doing this and now what! In the last few weeks I and McCahon class have been doing a project what they wanted to learn about. MOst of us have done a project together and we share our ideas and we collaborate. I hope you enjoy it!

What: What I was doing today was I was busy focusing on my genius hour. what is a genius hour? It is a project where we have all our ideas about what you want to learn about. What I meant about what we want to learn about you can learn anything what you want. My topic was about why do we need lungs and why is our blood red and our vein blue! I was looking for information and some images and I found some interesting things.




So what:I was doing this because I never had a chance finding out what I wanted so I did this. I really helps me because I learnt staff that I never learnt. Another reason why I was doing this was that I wanted to learn about the body features and my most topic was why do we need lungs and why is our vein blue?


Now what:What am I gonna do next is to find out more and more details and use all my created ideas and put it on my presentation. Once my presentation is done, next I am going to learn about space and the solar system.

My Slam poetry

The last few weeks, Mccahon class have been doing some slam poetry in writing. This slam poetry is about what do you want to be so I chosen being a drummer.I chose drumming becauase that was my passion.Why I chosen this because some student at Hay Park School and May Road School went down to wellington to perform for the the Big Bang festival. We were called the battrie 100! I hope you enjoy my slam poetry!

Trip to May Road School.

What?

Earlier this morning we had a walking exercise all the way to May Road School. We were doing an amazing genius hour project.Genius hour project is something that you really want to know that you never know and you create it.It was really interesting going there because we learn things and we got to make new friends!I enjoyed going there and what we did was collaborating in groups about staff that we wanted to learn about! I have learn many things about music,human body,space and different things. I was really into it because the people I know had different ideas.I love doing this again and I hope we could still continuing it.

So what?

Collaborating with May Road was the first time in Hay Park School. We got to know each other and had a warm up game. We started of genius hour and started learning about staff that we wanted to learn.Looking at other people’s idea was really interesting. We were doing this because we were working on a genius hour about the things that we wanted to learn.

Now what?

Now what I hoping for is to start sharing our ideas and sharing our creating things. I have learn a little bit of things because we just started. I have learned from it and now I want to learn more and more things.

This is my writing about a trip to May Road School! We have learnt many things by collaborating.I hope we can do this again and I enjoyed doing this.
