Pumanawa

This Term is Pumanawa.  Pumanawa is when we go to a 
different classroom to do a special option.  It is every Monday
after lunch.  I am in Cartooning. Cartooning is 
really cool because sometimes we draw realistically and sometimes we merge animals!  I cant wait for the next 
lesson.  I really enjoy it when the teacher teaches us new techniques to draw well. Here are a few things I have drawn.

Cook Island language week

This week was Cook Island language week.  It was fulled with heaps of fun activities.  Here is a picture of one of the activities we have done so far.

That activity was my favourite.  I have really enjoyed Cook Island language week.  It was filled with a bunch of super fun activities!

Religious Education

In R.E we have been learning about "Who is God?". 
We have been learning about what God is like and 
we also did an acrostic poem about him. We also 
learned about the Good Samaritan and we also did
 "The stages of centering prayer," We also did some
 things on the Assumption. I have really enjoyed
 these particular sessions in R.E. 
 This is what My title page looks like.

Maori Art

In Room 5 we have been doing art.  We have been 

sketching ideas inspired by Peter Gossage for quite

 a while.  I finished my art on 2.7.19.  It was really

 interesting trying out a different style of art.  I did my art on some Green Stone necklaces.  

This is how it turned out:

Book Week!

This week was Book Week! One of the best weeks
 of the school year! Today is the last day of book
 week!  There were so many activities to do!  I even 
won a book cover competition.  You had to design a
 NEW book cover for one of your favourite books.  
I made a Ruby Redfort book cover.  Ruby Redfort
 was written by Lauren Child.  My prize for winning 
was $10.00 to spend at our book fair.  The book fair 
is when they get loads of NEW books and people 
can buy them.  I really enjoyed Book Week!

Maths Co-ordinates

In Room 5 for maths we have been learning
 about co-ordinates.  We all got the exact same 
sheet for the co-ordinates. It was a bit difficult
 at first but as I went on it became easier and
 easier!  It was very fun and the picture on our
 sheet was a a panda doing the floss!  When we 
finished our first co-ordinate sheet we got a
 new one that had decimals. I'm still working
 on my decimal one know!  The decimal one
 I got is a dabbing pug.
