Idiom Illustration

Our focus in writing today were idioms. Idiom is a group of words that have the same meaning but one is exaggerated. I have made a DLO with an example of idiom and images to back up the sentence. I have learnt that idiom is another way of saying something but using exaggeration. 

Winter Learning Journey - Assembly

During the Winter Learning Journey, we learnt many facts about New Zealand. Rachel came to Panmure Bridge School to hand out the awards and prices to the participants of the Winter Learning Journey.There were lots of students who contributed. There were 6 top winners, 1st place winners were Oh Hsen and Daniel, 2nd place winners were AJ and Alex, and 3rd place winners were Eric and Ofa. Rachel also priced the top girl blogger Nazella. Our school had the most participants in the Winter Learning Journey. While doing the Winter Learning Journey, we all improved in our reading and writing. This was a very fun activity to do over the holidays. 

Thank you Rachel for making this program possible and commenting on our individual blogs. I would like to thank Rachel's group for commenting feedback and taking the time to go over our work.

TECH - Graphics Group

Today for tech, the graphics group were up to painting their MDF designs. We got our clocks laser cut, then we started to draw our designs on to our MDF pieces. After we completed drawing our designs, we started painting our MDF and used the primary colors to mix and made different colors. We had to paint layers of the same color because the MDF was to dark. It was also best to use opposite colors so each color would look bright.

It Pays To Win!

 

 Our focus in maths was " It Pays To win". Mia and I have worked together to complete this problem and this problem used lots of rounding in the payment of Siones rugby career. We had to solve multiple problems and we had to find the new payment of the next season and compare it with the season before.

In our maths challenge we learnt a new strategy; to see if a number can be divisible by 3. Mia and I have made a kahoot.it based on this strategy. Once we have finished the kahoot.it, we then had to make sure another group played our kahoot.it. We the played their kahoot.it that they made.

Flextangles and Hexagons

Women Suffragette

Since women's voting rights were a big problem in the early 1840's, our reading topic this term is "votes for women". Mia, Nazella, Javeylor, Mishaan, Jorja and I have been working collaborativly to make this 25 word summary about women's suffragette. Watching a youtube video we choose 6 important words and put them in our summary about women's right to vote/women's suffragettes.
