This amazing fun week I have learnt about time in Pangarau. Did you know there are 60 seconds in 1 minute?
I also learnt about the patu in kaupapa matua. I found reading very challenging because I am still learning to sound out my words. One thing I want to do differently next week is pangarau because I found it hard to understand at times.

This week I learnt 2 things in my akomanga. I learnt how to split numbers in pangarau and how to brainstorm how to make a story book. Splitting numbers is breaking up the number into groups. We brainstormed how to make a story book for Whaea Racheal who is leaving next week.
I have found 1 thing challenging this week was pangarau. I just don’t get it.
I would like to learn more about writing so I can write on my own.
This is what I learnt in Ata Hapara this week.
Here is a link to my reflection
This week I enjoyed learning about Celebrations in Kaupapa Matua and writing short stories in Tuhituhi. I learnt that the Treaty of Waitangi is not celebrated but is observed.
I found writing challenging because I found it hard to think of ideas. Next week I would like to strengthen my thinking by doing more short stories

On Friday 25 October we had our annual athletics. I thought it was fun and I enjoyed all the different activities. My favourite events were high jump, shot put and discus. I jumped over the first 2 heights and I will write about that more later.
The high jump was in the hall and it was super hot outside so it was really hot inside. We had to sit down first and listen to the teacher for instructions. Next we learnt what leg we kick with when doing scissors jump.. jumped over the first height using this technique. It was really easy. I thought it was fun because I like jumping and we got to do a lot of other fun activities. You also get to do running and I like to run. I also think it is fun because I got to use my strength to throw things
I liked the discus and the shot put because it was fun. It was not easy because the shot put ball was very heavy and the discus you had to throw it a certain way and I didn’t get it right straight away. Matua showed us how to throw the discus to get a good measurement.I
n conclusion athletics was tiring but it was fun and I look forward to doing it again next year. My goal is to get faster at running.
This term we have been doing Geometroity in Pangarau. I liked the 3D shapes and the drawing. I didn’t like redoing my work because it wasn’t right. I found the colouring in fun. I hope we keep doing it
Today we had another Action Station called Code in Action! My favourite part was coding Minecraft Adventurer because it was fun.
Something I didn’t like was when I got stuck it was annoying. I got stuck with the one where you had to place crops and there was water. I learnt how to use the place block
Something I learnt was that coding is hard.
My goals at the begininng of the year were to do my chores at home. I have cleaned my room every week. I pick up the rubbish and clothes off the floor. I do the dishes with my sister every night. I am starting a new job to take our dog for a walk and sometimes we wash the dog.
