Mata I Pusi

WALT: make inferences to understand the deeper meaning behind a text

This week for Reading Mrs Stone gave our reading group Dahl a story called Mata I Pusi (Eye's of a cat) The story was talking about that it's ok if you are different from everyone because everyone is different. As you can see on top of my presentation is my create activity where we had to create a word cloud art about what things we like.

Move your body activity

Learning about moving your body is not just by using your body it's also about your mind too. Today for inquiry Room 3 did an activity where we had to pick one person from our team to do a stacking cup competition with our other classmates. The four kids that were nominated to do the competition was Adrienne, Santana, Chastyi and Jayden. They were timed to see who is the fastest and Chastyi won. (Time: Chastyi-9.90s, Santana-14.96s, Jayden-15.76s, Adrienne- 21.32s.

I learned today that when someone is forced to do something they are not comfortable with I should encourage them so they have the confidence to do it. I also learned that when I fail I should keep on Preserving.

Team 5 EXPO Experience

       EXPO

Team five decided to do an EXPO to show to Pt England School. The reason why is because
we needed to teach the younger students about Force and Motion. Teaching makes you a
better learner.

Our group had more than two ideas, our first idea was to do a catapult, another idea we
had in mind was to do an egg in the water experiment.

For our project we wanted to do the egg in the water experiment. The reason why we
wanted to do this experiment was because it looked fun, and we wanted to test it out,
and that it concludes Force & Motion.

Our group failed because we didn’t have the equipment. But we really wanted to do the
EXPO with the other Yr 7 & 8 so hopefully we can do it next time.

When we have another EXPO our group should have the right equipment, and to be ready
to present what we have learned to the Pt England Students.
