I am learning to make a rules chart about a sports.
I am so proud of being able to do this task about Rugby in class.

ANZAC Recount Success Criteria

The Death Zone

It’s 2 a.m in the morning of April 25th 1915. I was scared. My knees were shaking. So was all of my friends. I was sitting the middle of the landing boat. I was holding my gun like it was the last bit of food in the world.

Suddenly my friend Perez got shot in the head.  His brains splattered all over the landing boat and me. I whispered to goodbye to my  mate.

Then I heard a bullet fly past my head and hit my other  friend in the chest. Then BOOM”.  Hundreds of bullets come flying around our boat. I felt a sharp pain in my right arm. I grabbed my gun and started shooting.I was about to enter the Death Zone.By Denzel

I am learning to write an interesting recount.

I am so proud of making my recount interesting by using similes and adjectives.
It can be tricky to write in past tense.
My buddy can help me by checking my work.
The next step for me in my learning is to find an interesting topic for me to write about.

Peace One Day Taster Lunch


As part of  our Inquiry work on Peaceful Communities we have been  learning about World Peace Day  on September 21st. On Friday 19th September we held a Taster Shared Lunch with Rooms  19 and 22.   We  had to bring in a small sample of a food that we might eat at home as a family favourite  or a food from our culture.  This helps us to learn about each other’s cultures and about tolerance of others.

Percentages and Fractions

Percentages and Fractions Reflection

I am learning to solve problems by using my understanding of the equivalence between percentages and fractions.
I am so proud of being able to work out percentage and fraction problems by myself.
It can be tricky to divide by 10.
My buddy can help me by checking my work to see if it is wrong or right.
The next step for me in my learning is to try more Stage 7 questions.
