Reflecting on Term 1

Published by dragonsinger under wordle

Yesterday I asked the students to write down what their favourite 2 or 3 activities from Term 1 were. I deliberately didn’t brainstorm ideas first so it was inevitable that the activities from this last week featured prominently! It was also interesting that one of the questions asked was “are you going to wordle this?” so here is the wordle!

WAD = Word a Day

Published by dragonsinger under wordle

Or – a new word a day x 4 days a week. This is something I started this term and the students are very enthusiastic about it. I’ve created a wordle of the words we’ve learned this term.

Weekend Recounts

Published by dragonsinger under recount, writing

In the weekend I went to my Nan’s and Granddad’s house for dinner.

For dinner I had meat, broccoli, potatoes and salad. After dinner I played with the dolls. After that I had pudding. I had peaches and ice-cream. It was yum.

At the end I went home straight to bed.

On the weekend I went to golf. I hit the ball very far away and it almost hit the green. I got my chipper and got it in the hole.

We played nine holes and then went home for dinner.

In the weekend I went to the pools.

First I went to get changed into my togs. Then I walked around the edge of the pool to get to the step. Next I went down the steps into the pool and went for a swim.

After that Mum said that I could get some popcorn, so I got my popcorn and went home to eat it.

On Sunday I drove to Porirua to get my Mum some shoes but instead we ended up buying one pair of shoes for my Mum and three pairs for me.

My Mum and Dad bought me a pair of sneakers, a pair of boots and a pair of ordinary old shoes.

Finally we were able to go home. I even fell asleep on the way home because I was really tired.

On Saturday I went to Auckland for the very first time.

When we got there we went to an air show. But an unexpected surprise happened. We were allowed to go to Butterfly Creek. We spent the rest of the day there.

Then we went back home because it was only a day trip.

On Sunday I had a quiet day because I was tired.

On Sunday I went to pick lots of fruit and vegetables.

I got the least apples but I got the most beans. Nicole, my sister, got a whole basket full.

At the end Nicole was crying because her bucket was getting heavy. When we were going to the car I was crying because we couldn’t get an ice-cream.

On the weekend I went to the Wairarapa for a party.

When we got there I had a spider drink. It has vanilla ice-cream and Fanta. It was yummy.

After we opened the presents it was time to have a lolly scramble. I got heaps of them.

Then we got our lolly bag and it was time to go home.
