Netbook Reflection

               
How has having a netbook connected to the internet helped my learning this year ?

Having a netbook has really helped me with my learning alot. It has given me an opportunity to work online at all times. Having a netbook is fun and cool because you don’t have to work on paper and pencil that makes your hands sore. Another reason about having a netbook is because you can find out a lot of information about other people and your work with other people on the other side of the world. I am very proud to have a netbook and to work online like Math Whizz, Xtra Math and My Next Steps . It really fun to have a gmail and google docs of your own. Some bad things that I don’t like about netbooks is that people be dougies and in the wrong place at the wrong time.

What In The World Is Going On

My Year At School 2013


  My Year At School 0_o

My year at school this year was really hard and fun because the hard part is learning hard stuff like hard maths questions with Mr Barks and Mrs Nua. The fun part was going playing sports out of school and going on trips. But the most important thing this year is learning maths and achieving my goals and listening carefully to instructions and each steps to what to do.


Being in Mr Barks and Mrs Nua’s class is really fun and cool I wish I was in that class next year. Having Mrs Nua in the mornings is really fun and good. Having Mr Barks for the rest of the day is really difficult because he pushes us to learning what we don’t know and try our best this year.


Being split into different class is boring to be honest  because they don’t do work that our class does like recount writing and fraction maths. As the year 8’s went to camp we got split up and me, Taeshell and Cheyanne were in room 20, it was kinda cool .

My biggest improvement this year is in math because I move up where I was supposed to be this year. I really want to say a big Thank You to Mr Barks and Mrs Nua for having me in their class and helping me in my learning this year. I enjoy coming to Pt England School.

, Action World Recount


On Friday the 6th of December the year 7’s went to Action World. But First we came to school, mark the roll and waited for the bus to come. As the bus arrived we got on the bus and went off, it took I think 30 minutes. When we got there we went with the man name Jeremy who showed us around and told us what to do.

We went into groups and we went to the crazy ladder. It was nearly my turn it looked so scary but when I try it it was so easy and fun I wanted another turn but we had to move to the next one and it was the jump N slide. It was my turn it took ages to jump off because it was so high, I jumped off and it was cool so I had a turn heaps of times. It was lunch time for 10 minutes and we could go have free time it was so fun at Action World. We spent 3 hours at Action World.

It was 12:30 it was time to go back to school everyone was so sad. On our way back to school playing a game called SWEET & SOUR. It was so fun on our way back to school. When we got to school we had lunch and dance practice. But before we had dance practice we played a game called sleeping lions and it was Miss Vaafusuaga idea it was fun. Having dance practice it was so cool and everyone was tired.

THE END *_*

Swimming Reflection


                            Reflection :)

During our swimming lessons I learnt how to do backstrokes and freestyle technique. I really learnt a lot in just two week and it was lots of fun. I think I improved swimming because I remember to bring my togs and towels and remember to listen to the person who are teaching us. Swimming mean a lot to me now. In the future I need to work to swim a bit longer and learn to swim in a deeper sea/pool.

Math DLO #2






At Pt England School in my classroom we are learning about decimals and fraction. So if I said there was two school are selling gingerbread man as a fundraiser. School one has 45 gingerbread men to sell and they have 7/9 of them. 
School two has 56 gingerbread men to sell and they have sold 6/8. Which school sold the most.

School one: 9 x 5 = 45 and then 7 x 5 = 35

School two : 6 x 7 = 42 and then 6 x 7 = 42 

So the most school who sold the most is school two.

M Most Memorable Time At Pt England School !

My memorable time at Pt England School was Fun Run. As the day for fun run was coming I was really excited because I didn’t want to practice everyday anymore.At last the day for the fun run about to begin , we were on our way to the Reserve next to our school . We were waiting for the other class to arrive and I was having butterflies in my stomach. Bang! the race started. It was so fun because we were so muddy all over our legs. As I saw the finishing line I was so happy and relieved of myself. We all finish the teachers were so happy of us all in team 5 because we did our best. I went home on that day feeling happy and content about myself. So this was my most memorable time at Pt England School.

THE END !

My Math DLO #2

What I am learning in class with my teacher Mr Barks is Multiplication and Division. So if I said a 5 plane have just landed at the airport. Every plane carries 235 passengers. How many passenger have arrived at the airport. What I have done was I slitted 235 into 200+30+5 and then I did 5 x 200 = 1000 then 5 x 30 = 150 so all together I had 1150 and then I did 5 x 5 = 25 so I added them up to get 1175. So there you go the answer is 1175. ^_^

My Maths DLO #1


What I have being learning in class with my teacher Mr Bark is fractions. So if I said a company have delivered 12 large bottle of water to office in town. This is 2/6 of all the water they must deliver today. How many bottles of water must they deliver in total today.
As I saw the fraction I stopped and said 2 x something = 12 so I found out it was 6, I want to know what the whole thing is. So I did the same at the bottom 6 x 6 = 36, so there you go the answer is 36. =)

Recount About Cross Country !


How did you feel?

When we were on our way to the netball court I was feeling excited but when we started to walk to the starting line I had butterflies. When we started I heard people cheering as the year 7 girls were running.
What was the day like?
The day started off with clouds in the sky then when it was 1:00 o’clock it was a beautiful sunny day. Running around the reserve the grey clouds came out but it didn’t rain.

How long was it?
Wow around the top field, around the trees and around the reserve 2 times. So that makes 3km. But to be honest it was easier than practicing running.
Your favourite part and why?
My favourite part of the day was when we were singing and cheering because I like to encouraging people as they are running. Also Mrs Nua said to cheer.
                                                                                                                                                         
How did you feel when you had finished running?
I felt tired and dirty but I was happy of myself for finishing off the run :).

The End !

I got anrgy went to my room and took my clothes off and put home clothes on and started to cry. It was so embrassing in front of my brothers and sisters.

Once I Was A Gaint


The moment I woke up, I discovered to my amazement that I was a size of a giant! Today was going to be a very interesting day indeed!

As I woke up I was shocked that I was a size of a giant. When I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth I couldn't fit through the door that was how tall I was. When I couldn't fit through the door I was thinking about busting the house down and at the same time I was thinking where would my family sleep, so I decided to bust down my room roof without my parents knowing. When I went out for a fresh air I saw people walking that I thought that were ants.

Later I was out all day then I came to sleep and the next day I was back to normal and went back to school and explain everything that happen.

My Weekend.

On Sunday I went to church with my parents, sisters and brothers. However I didn’t want to go church because church is sometimes boring. It’s boring because we sit down for too long and also I don’t like Sunday school. After church we had a feed. After our feed kids played outside at the park while the parents were still eating. After the first service we went home and we had a little nap, then we went back to church because every first Sunday of the month we have night service too. Also we have item in the night service, that was the most fun thing at night service. So after church we went home and watched some movie

Our Special Guest Will.I.Am .....


Can you guess who came to Point England School? Well... If you guessed Will.I.Am you are absoloutly right. The hall was filled with excitement, and Will.I.Am slowly walked into the hall.

Hearing cheers and screaming Will.I.Am walked down the isle. With the media crew standing at the back, the performing groups were nervous. A ripple of excitement worked its way around the hall.

With nervous faces the Kapa Haka group performed in front of Will.I.Am. Walking on the stage everyone clapped with joy.

As Will.I.Am Handed the $100,000 to all the manaikalani school’s we all cheered, screamed and yelled. We are so grateful for what he has done for us.

Camp Argument


I do not want a year seven and eight camp because, we wake up too early, we have to sleep in tents,

The other reason I do not want a year seven and eight camp is that we have to wake up early, and start our day out in the cold. We also have to swim in the cold and it sometimes makes us sick.

At the year seven and eight camp its boring because we always have to sleep in a tent. When you’re in year seven and eight, you get tired of sleeping in tents. Overall we shouldn't have a year seven and eight camp this year.

Last but not least sleeping in the tents because our backs get sore and too much pain on your back. When you sleep in tent it is very cold at night and you get flu most of the times.

In my opinion I believe that we shouldn’t have a year seven and eight camp. That is what I think.
