I enjoyed to colour in and learn about who made it Winslow Homer made the first one born in1865.

And the second one Hokusaicamade born in 1832.

Spooky house

W.A.L.T. infer-infer means to be the Detective and find the answers and the text

 This Week for reading we had to read Spooky House, We had to create a Spooky House.

In this story the movers asked the family "have we got the right house" because it was so old and the crazy old scientist lived in it and died, and strange things happen in it, that they think no one would want to live in it. 

I found it easy to draw the science lab, which is at the very top of the house. 

I enjoyed making all the spooky stuff.

here is the house.

Parihaka

We have been learning about Parihaka. The pakeha soldiers were taking the Maori land and selling it. The Maori people baked the soldiers bread and the children sang and did poi dancing to welcome them. But the soldiers just walked past and burnt down the whole village and destroyed their crops.

We had to think about how the soldiers felt and use a google tool to show our thinking. Josh and I chose wevideo.

Thank you letters

 This week our class has been working on a thank you letter to someone  that came or did some thing for our year 5&6 camp.

I enjoyed writting about the indoor rock climming because it gave me more memories of camp.

I found it hard to think of stuff because I was just thinking about indoor rock climming. 

here is my letter

Dear Dad, 

Thank you for taking us to camp. I thought you were the best parent at camp because you pushed us to go further than we thought we could and you also played Bat Down with us when the activities were finished. 

The best activity was Indoor Rock Climbing. When I first saw it I was like “Na!” but when I got on, it was fun because you got to bounce down the wall after you had made it to the top. I also enjoyed the Flying Fox because it was fun chucking the rope over the line to pull the line down.

 Thank you so much for making our camp lots of fun.

October Reflection

 Today our class had to do our October Reflection. It is a good time to think about and reflect on what we did in October. It was busy. My most favourite thing was camp because we did lots of activities that I have never done before like indoor rock climbing anf flying fox.

I found it hard to figure out how much points we had.

I enjoyed typing about camp because it gave me more memories.

Here is my October Reflection.
