senior primary reflection

In the past weeks we have been writing letters of advice to the grade 4 pupils of 2018. Now my reflection of my three years at Senior Primary. I love my three years because you make new friends and have more fun than you ever had before. Round about grade six you sometimes go places with your friends like the movies and you will have loads of sleepovers.

 

Integrated Learning Task - Puberty

All  the grade 6`s had a new ILT start on Wednesday and end on Friday. It was about puberty,sex and becoming a teenager. To start the ILT we had to create a physical theater. The teachers put me in  a group with Robert,Oliver and Christian. I really enjoyed the physical theater. The talk from Mr Preston was really interesting I learned a lot. The social media talk was really long but it was great. Honestly I have apps I shouldn't be having.

Email etiquette-Riley Waters

Today in IT we had  to use a Hyper Doc. In the lesson we used all the links to learn more about Emailing. I learned allot during this project. I loved that we did at our own pace. What was really weird was everyone was on the same doc. Specifically I learned about what to keep in mind when emailing a teacher. Here are some examples, use a solution, give a specific subject, keep it to-the-point, be professional, sign and proofread. I overall enjoyed this project and would do it again.  

Wonder

In class we have been reading the book Wonder in English and its taught me to not judge a book by its cover. Auggie is a young regular boy but he has a problem with his face.

 What stood out to me was how everyone was 'afraid' of Julian and stayed out his way.

 Reading the book has made me feel that I`m going to be kinder to the people I don`t know as well as others.

 I would say I`m most alike Jack because I'm trying to stay friends with everyone and so is he.

Aqua Flow

In tech we had to create a character out of Plasticine. I was in a group with Max,unfortunately hes on tour so you cant see his side of the project. We chose water power because we are in a drought so we thought it would be relating to our everyday life. I would change how much we merged our parts to our body and make him stand a bit better,also put longer wire to connect the parts to move easier. The highlight is definitely creating our character. I was quite frustrated with how little time we got though, but no doubt it was a very enjoyable project.

 

Mindful messaging

 We had to create a poster for the grade 4's about mindful messaging because messages has been banned because they do not know how to tell if the person is sad or happy.We had to watch a video ,discussed what facial expression and tone is and means.We used a new feature on google called google drawings.We had to include the Common Sense logo,the words tone and facial expression and their meanings,an example of how messaging can go wrong and pictures.

Poetry ILT

My ILT was very exiting we had our first grade six ILT on poetry. We had to draw a picture on a poem I chose the poem Tyger. ILT stands for Integrated Learning Task. I was put in a group with Andrew and Ashliegh. I enjoyed my group we all had great ideas to contribute to the team. We had lots of tasks to accomplish individually and as a group. Which include the following.

TASK 1: Terminology: we had to search words and write down there meaning then make a video explaining them.

TASK 2: Poetry writing: I had to write a individual poem and my theme was poems. Picture will be included down below. 

TASK 3: Black out poetry: Our group had to take a wonder page and use a permanent marker to draw around  our chosen words.

TASK 4: Poetry slam: Our group performed a act of poetry when we did a poetry slam in the hall.

TASK 5: Analysing  poems: we had to answer questions on a chosen poem we chose Topsy turvy world.

TASK 6 : Imagery: I drew a picture on my chosen poem Tyger.

Camp

 I am very exited about camp I just hope that I don't get hurt. I cant wait for camp.

My 2017 Hopes

My 2017 hopes 

My 2017 year has bean very exiting so far I hope that I get taller so I can finally  reach the top shelf in the kitchen. I want to get better at goalkeeper so that I can win a whole game without letting in one goal. I want to be able to kick a soccer ball half way across the soccer field. I would love to save up R1,000 so I can buy something I've wanted for a long time. I want to spend more time with my dog Dexter and cat Bo.
