This week at tech we made some colored harakeke bracelets, I made a black and redone and I'm really proud of my work.
I really enjoyed making the bracelet because it is very fun to do.
It was challenging because when my colored part was getting shorter and I had to add In the next one it was hard, but i ended up folding it in instead of tucking it.

WALT: Write a recount on what we did at tech
This week at tech we created a Harakeke/flax bracelet to give to someone.
I learned how to make a harakeke bracelet.
I enjoyed going to tech because making those were really fun.
I found it challenging because it was a bit hard to get used to the folding pattern, but once I got used to it, it was really easy.
Next time I will improve on making the folds tighter because to me the folds were loose.
WALT: Create our own maths word problems
This week I created 4 maths word problems, 2 on each slide.
I enjoyed creating word problems because they were fun.
I found it challenging to come up with equations for my word problems.
Next time I will improve on making more word problems because in my opinion 4 isn't enough for my age group.
WALT: Write down what we learned in the Book of knowledge/Comprehension.
On Wednesday my class and I went out to do sports with Matua Paulo.
We were learning how to use techniques for when we were running so we could run properly.
I found it easy to understand and use the techniques.
I really enjoyed it because we got to do and learn something new.
Next time I need to try and use it more because on one of the times we had to use the techniques that were taught I nearly tripped over.
WALT: Write down what we learned in the Book of knowledge/Comprehension.
This week in reading our teacher (Miss Peters) assigned us to a Comprehension article where we had to answer the questions correctly but for this blog post I will be writing down what I learned.
The article that I read was called Vitamin G for Your Mind is about how staying inside is affecting our daily life and I learned quite a few things from that article.
I learned that staying inside too much can cause depression or ADHD for kids that spend too much time inside.
I also learned that being outside and being more active can help with depression or ADHD and can also help motivate people to do more things.
Which one do you choose?

WALT: Understand Niue language week
What is the Niue language week about?
Niue language week is a week that gives students and kids (such as myself) the opportunity to learn about the Niue culture through song, dance, and cultural displays.
Why is it important?
In my opinion, Niue Language week is important because it isn't spoken that much just like how the Maori language isn't spoken that much but when we have a week to celebrate and learn that language it gives everyone an opportunity to learn more about the culture and language.
I also learned how to say three Niue words which are Fakaalofa atu (Hello), Mua Kia (Goodbye to two people), and Fakaalifa lahi atu kia mua (Hello to two people).
I found it easy to work out the equations because I have been practicing my maths.
I found it hard to come up with an equation for the beginning of the layout.
I really enjoyed doing this task because it was a bit of a challenge.
Next time I need to try and work the problems out properly because I remember getting some wrong but went back and corrected them.
WALT: Show Tikanga in the classroom
This week's task was to create a DLO about how to show Tikanga in the classroom.
I found it easy to write down ideas about how o show Tikanga in the classroom because I already had some ideas. I really enjoyed decorating the slide. Next time I need to try to fit more detail in, e.g more ways on how you can show Tikanga in the classroom.
WALT: Create our own Maths word problems
This weeks task was to create our own maths word problem slides and show how you can work it out.
I found it easy think of some equations for the word problem.
I found it hard to think of things to use for this for the slides as an example.
I really enjoyed creating these word problem slides because i got to decorate them.
Next time I need to try make the equations harder.
This morning room 5 went out to do sports with Matua Garth. We played fun games like the game Rats and Rabbits, Tag, Numbers, and Tic-Tac-Toe.
I really enjoyed playing these games because they were fun and new.
My favourite game was Rats and Rabbits. What you have to do in this game is to get a buddy, and stand opposite to each other. When you have done that one of you guys will be the rat and the other will be a rabbit. When your animal is called you have to run away and the other person has to try and get you. If they get you they get a point and then you have to go back to the beginning.
WAL: What a quality blog comment is
We were learning how to build a quality blog comment. For this activity we had to drag and type the words onto the fridge like fridge magnets, to form a blog comment for one of our classmates.
I found it easy to write a comment for the blog post I was writing for.
I found it hard to write a question for the blog comment.
I really enjoyed doing this activity because I got to read and explore some of my classmate's blogs to choose for this activity.
Next time I need to try and add more detail to my comment because it wasn't long enough.
The comment in this activity was for my classmate Roman, click on the link if you want to see the blog post that I was commenting on.
