My Daffodil Art & Dimantie Poem

Reflection

I was learning to write a dimanitie poem and draw a daffodil.  I found this really fun and exciting since we also made it into a puzzle and then we wrote our poem in a spare space. Something I really liked was the idea of the puzzle it just looks AWESOME!!!!

We are learning how to teach our fellow students of EPS what to do in an emergency this is our script. I found it okay with cooperating with my group and it was easy to write the script because it we had an idea from this video  that we saw on youtube.

Maths Problem

Reflection

I was learning how to make a square with 15 by 15 square and etc.. I found this easy because what I did was found the dynamiter of the square and my group just remembered that Mrs Graham told us  to work around the 1 by 1 square. My next step is to work on the extension problem and try to use a similar type of strategy.  

Daffodil Diamante Poem

Reflection

I was learning how to write a diamante poem. I found this interesting because I had never done this type of poem before and I thought it was really cool. I found this really easy because we did a plan with nouns, adjectives and verbs. Now I plan to write a antonym  poem.

Cry of the Taniwha Prejudice Example

Reflection

I was learning how to do a prejudice example. I found this really easy because I understood the character of Matt really.  Since the beginning of the book Juzza had judged Matt so I knew what to do. My next step is to understand a more difficult character by using the same prejudice technique.

Volcano Art

Reflection

We have been learning how to apply paint.  We learnt two techniques, dabbing with a sponge and dragging with cardboard.  What I found really fun was the sponge painting and the one I found tricky was the dragging techniques because the paint got everywhere.

My 2014 speech

Reflection

We have been learning how to write an effective speech.  I found this easy because I understood my topic really well and I even really believed about my topic ( Why education is important ).  I began  my speech with a question or a imaginative thought I supported it with lots of information about why it is important and I ended my speech with a saying type of thing so people have something to think about.  Next time I could back my speech up with expert evidence and that will give a more effect on my main points.
