Daily Five

We have started a new thing called Daily Five,

There are 5 tasks we have to complete in one day (But you don't have to finish them all in one day)

Some of the options are:

Read to Someone:

Where you have to read a chapter book or a picture book (with a real story.)

Listen To Someone:

Where you listen to someone reading who is reading to someone.

Word work:

Where we have to work on our rocket spelling level and activities.

Work on writing:

Where you have to work on some free choice writing or do a post on your blog.

Read To Self:

Where you read a chapter book or literature circle book or book from home to yourself.

My Time Here At Myross Bush School

Reflection Post

Abseiling by Ruby D

We made a poster on something we did at camp and I am doing abseiling, we had to create a poster explaining what we did step by step.

Here is the poster I created on abseiling and what we did step by step.

Camp reflection

On the 21st to the 24th of November, the year sixes went to Borland lodge for their end of year camp, we had Adventure Southland come for 2 days and take some activities.

I really enjoyed camp. I especially liked having Adventure Southland come and take activities, my favourite thing that they took was rafting and abseiling.

I didn't like the fact that we had to wake up so early in the morning, because we were up so late at night.

I also enjoyed getting lots of free time, because we got to play around camp and EXPLORE!

If I was able to change the camp a bit, I would have Adventure Southland come for longer, because I really enjoyed having them come.

Some advice for next years campers is don't get tired on the first day of camp because you really need your energy, get a good sleep the night before so don't talk to much at night, and have fun!!!

REFLECTIVE POST.

This week on Monday we had Pet Day.
The Ukelele, Recorder and aerobics people preformed in the afternoon.
I got second in the lamb drinking race, and third in the judging.

Also this week we got a new learning plan and this is what it looks like:

We have to complete these things before Thursday lunch time.

Reflection on week 2 term 4

This week we have started a Learning Plan and we have a certain amount of things that need to be done before Thursday lunch time.

We have a different learning plan according to what writing group we are in.

Some of the things we have to do are like explaining how to use speech marks on a 'Show Me' on the Ipad and post it on your blog. You can see mine above.

 For inquiry we are doing the arts like drama, music, visual arts and dance.

We get to choose 1 to do for the rest of the term and I am going to do visual arts (I hope.)
