Reflection NE

My Term One Memories
In term one we went to Pack ‘n’ Save for a class trip.
At Pack ‘n’ Save we learnt about healthy eating.
While we were learning about healthy eating I noticed that the things I like the best are unhealthy, like chocolate and chips.
When we went to Pack ‘n’ Save we were given a voucher for $60 so we were able to make a healthy lunch at school, we had smoothes with berries in, sushi and nice yummy wraps!

In maths this year I have improved enough to move up two classes, I am really proud of what I have done!

When the year 5s went on camp to the Marae and sonshine ranch I stayed in Miss Pillay’s class for two days. In Miss Pillay’s class we learnt about the rain forest and how it makes oxygen. If we keep on cutting
Down the trees there will be no more rain forest to make the oxygen we breathe!

Homework KA

What I liked doing this year I liked going to the Sky Tower where we watched a movie about Auckland. After that we went and watched people jump off on a bungy. I also liked it when we went on camp to Sonshine Ranch where we slept in a three sided bivouac. We went kayaking on the lake, did a water confidence course, went for a bush walk, and I loved the horse riding.

In term Three I learnt about structures. I learnt about the sky tower,Eiffel tower Sydney tower and the space needle. The sky tower is 328 metres high/32 buses. The sky tower is made out of Three matriels Concrete, Glass and Steel.

homework G P

Term Three has been such a great term. I know I have improved a lot and I have learned so much more than I knew at the beginning of the year. I am beginning to enjoy reading more. I love maths and am understanding it more. I am better at full stops and capital letters. When touring the Sky Tower one thing I learned, was that the Sky Tower hasn't fell during earth quakes. I have learned that people contribute to society by building peoples homes and buildings so people can work. There are also police men that help keep us safe. There are hospitals so when we get sick or injured they help. I have improved in Solo Taxonomy, getting up to relational and extended abstract. G.P

My term 3 experience J G

In the thrid term of the year I've learnt many things like building and constructing models and 30cm long bridges and a heap of science.
I leant some awesome new painting skills and I did some amazing work of Van Gogh. But the thing I really enjoyed was learning my best friends at Botany Downs School.

Things I've learnt M L

I've learnt many things over the term. I've learnt about structures and built my confidence better. Also I learnt more about the sky tower and it took 37 buses to reach the same hieght as the Sky Tower. I've also gotten better at my division and multiplication better. But the sad part is I'm not able to see my friends again when I go to Somerville next year.

I have learnt over the term 3 K.S

This year I have learnt how to divide triangles into thirds and quarters. I have learnt to build structures, I've also learnt what a occupation is and I learnt that the Sky Tower is 304 meters.

This year By D.O

This year I have enjoyed art with Mrs Green and grammar also with Mrs Green. My favourite piece of art was the abstract art. I liked Draft writing because It was fun writing about the events that happened this year.
I liked going to the sky tower for a school trip because I learnt that it is 27 buses long ways.
I think that I got better at solo taxonomy work because now I'm extended abstract.
It was cool when the helicopter and the fire truck came to school because we got to go inside the fire truck and some people got to go see the helicopter up close.
I loved being in the soccer team and being a house leader.
So this year was actually pretty good.

My Reflection BL

This term I learnt a lot of things like occupations, structures, writing, and reading. And I learnt that if you put 37 buses it will be the some height as the Auckland Sky Tower. It is fun making a bridge with straw, wood news paper and ice block sticks. I’m proud that I am getting better at my writing and reading.
