Reflections week 6 Friday

My plan for disquiry next week is to film another video and then edit them both. The stage that I am at is that I am ahead because next week we were only going to start recording but we have already done a video.

My OTJ goal is to produce good pieces of writing every time I write a piece. This week to achieve this I didn't have any tasks from Lesley because this week we had to finish all the tasks we haven't done but I have already finished all the task before she told us. I got some homework from my English extension classes and I did really good work; . I am very close to achieving this goal and I know this because I try my best in every single piece of writing I do. I know whe n my writing is good when I put time and effort in because I usually need time to think about what I am writing about.

One thing that I am enjoying this term is all the tournaments going on because I am really sporty and I love running around. This is also good because I get A break from all the work that I do through the term.
One thing that I would like to improve about Harakeke Hub is that we could have a doing disquiry card for the wall next to the library because Ton and I do our disquiry in the hall. I think we should have this so that if we do our disquiry in the commons our in the hall the teachers will know.

This term I haven't uploaded that much because my chomebook

Reflections week 6

One thing that I have leaned today was that one of the rules in badminton is that you can not distract the other player.

My priority for tomorrow will be to finish my next maths task that I get assigned. I will achieve this by getting right onto it straight away.

This morning to show insiderness I had nothing to do so I decided to work on my disquiry. Now we have a survey that I am going to send out and the script.

Reflections week 5 Friday

I am in a group, I am showing others badminton. My plan is to research; start making my tutorial and then edit them. My big question is How can we share our skills in badminton in our school in badminton.  My three smaller questions are Can we make YouTube tutorials?, what are the intermediate skills in badminton? and Who is interested in badminton and how can we lure them in?


My OTJ goal is that every time I do a piece of writing its my best work.The thing that I have done to work towards this is to try to use everything that I have learned to create my piece of writing; I also try to lure them in with a great intro. I am close to doing this goal because I have wrote high quality work for all my pieces of writing.


The thing that I think is going well in the hub is that I am being a lot more responsible with my work.

Reflections Week 5 Tuesday

My priority for today has been to finish my maths task, I managed to finish it, it was more fun than I thought it would be. The code for my maths task that  I had to find out was France has the greatest length of laved roads.

My priority tomorrow is my reading and writing tasks. I am going to read 40 pages tonight. Then I am going to read more at school and answer he question.

This morning to show Insiderness I knew my  workshop with Lesley is tomorrow so I checked with Lesley and I found what My tasks where.

I have achieved complex sentences and yes, I will be uploading this to ALF.

I have really been enjoying the book A winters day in 1939 because its interesting. At the moment they are in a Russian camp and Adams mum has just had a baby and its died.

Reflections week 5 Monday

This morning, I have had no particular priority because I am up to date with all my tasks but tomorrow I will do my maths task.

My priority tomorrow will be to finish my maths task and then Lesleys tasks.

To show insiderness this morning I was waiting for Urs's Rc5 and I needed help on personification so I wrote a story about it and tried to use as much personification as I could and check it all to see whether I was using it right.

Week 4 Wendsday

My priority for Itime today has been to start reading up to chapter 15 of my book and start writing my
narrative. I have managed to create a great introduction to my story at the best of my ability's.

My priority for tomorrow is going to be to finish of my reading and my narrative. I need to finish my writing by Sunday.  to make sure I finish this I will work after school to get this done.

This morning to show insiderness I had a block that I didn't know what to do in that space so I knew I had to read 85 pages so I read my book and I only need to read 50 more pages.

Something that I have noticed is that people have been teasing and terrorizing my little brother constantly, I have tried to stop them but it just carry's on. I am not going to name names but these people don't do it to anyone else they pick on my brother and it makes my feel really bad and I get hurt. They do it just because my brother doesn't like sport or things that most boys here like. They pick on him just because he is different and I get really upset with that but, I don't show it.

Term 3 Week 3 Friday

This week I am proud of my tasks for Lesley because I got them all done, I read 91 pages and answered the questions I also interviewed four different people and wrote a draft on my writing piece. I am proud of this because I put so much time into these tasks, I spent my time at home doing work just to get these done.

My OTJ goal is fro my writing. My goal is that I constantly produce good pieces of writing all the time at the best of my capability. This week to achieve my goal I have wrote a good piece of writing with high quality for my other blog. The writing on the other blog is still in processes. Next week to keep working on this goal I need to keep writing more pieces of writing in my spare time, to high quality.

The Igroup that I want to get to is Independent. I want to get into independent because I want to show my parents that I can be independent because my Dad doesn't think I am an independent. The way I am going to get into independent is by working hard in my learning and making right choices in my work and where I work. I am also going to check Alf more because I don't check ALF enough but I have been checking it slightly more this term.

My ALF goal that I am going to focus on next week is spelling unfamiliar words. The way I am going to achieve this goal is by trying to use lots of different words even though I don't want to make any spelling errors I am just going to put them in and if I get them wrong, I will practice them.

Reflections week 3 Tuesday

This morning in Itime I achieved my maths task. At the start of the block I was going to finish my task for Lesley, but I remembered that I had to get my maths task done by tomorrow.

this morning to show Insiderness I did my maths task and when I was done I started to piece together some of the interview that I did yesterday so that I can see what was similar to what the people said and what was completely different.

Tomorrow my priority for Itime will be to finish of my survey and start working on the 41 questions for my book, it's going to be hard.

The piece that I am achieving for Alf is getting my compound and complex sentences grammatically correct. I need to upload this to Alf more.
