Fish in a Tree

At the start of term two we started reading a book called fish in a tree. It is about a girl called Ally Nickerson, she has dyslexia and learning differences.  I really like the book so far. Each week we are set with different tasks, each relating to what has happened in the book. This week I choose to do vocabulary and a short story pretending to be Ally using my senses.  Here they are. Dont forget to comment! :)

E village / Museum visit

This term so far has been so busy! So far we have  been weeding and mulching down at Hamanatua stream, we have gone to the museum and E village, we have gone on a bike trip and we have been practicing really hard for the gym festival. We have got so much more cool stuff coming up.

Our inquiry topic this term is Retro Tech. Last week we went to the museum and E village to learn more about Retro tech and technology of the future. It was so much fun at the museum we got to write our name with quills (feathers). We got to look at tonnes of other old items in the museum, I really enjoyed it.

Then we walked to the electric village. There we learnt about transport of the future. It was so cool. We got to ride on an electric scooter, complete activity  and control robots using ipads! And when we left we got a free lollipop. Overall I really enjoyed going to the museum and E village.

Escape from kraznir

Last term my early level four writing group started a story writing adventure called escape from kraznir. It is so much fun! We have some slides on our hub witch act as templates. Our writing is still a work in progress and NEEDS editing. Here is my escape Kraznir writing so far. Enjoy! :) (here is a teaser)
