Naming angels

Today we are learning how to name angles. I learnt that an angle is made when 2 lines meet and that if the angle is less than 90 degrees it is called an acute angle and if it is 90 but less than 180 degrees than it is called an Obtuse angle. I understood the learning and how to write in the names of the angles. The easy part was to draw the lines and figure it out on my own. The interesting part about the angles was the names and learning how to write a degree in my angle. My next step is to do the whole 360 degrees so I can master it before I go to high school. I used a protractor for my tool to help me so I can figure out the angles without a Chromebook. I would say that my learning is good but I know that I could do better than what I did.

The phobia

So for the past 1 week my class has been writing our narrative story's about s/he that has turned into and cat or a dog. On our orientation we have to introduce our charter and the scene. For my charters I have chosen a boy, a dog, a mum and a mum's friend. I chose the phobia for my title because someone in the story  has a break down and screams like a girl. The easy part about writing this piece was coming up with story lines like s/he screamed like a girl or I was awoken by big bright lights. The hard part was to make my story imaginary and come to life. The way I feel about my writing is hard to say, I like my writing but it isn't the best of my ability. My goal for next time is to use more higher level words than ( Wen't, Going, Get, The and all of the low level words. ) The way I can improve is to get a dictionary or a thesaurus and pull out some bigger, higher level words.

anyway here is a link to my writing.

Cultural festival

2 weeks ago Tuishaly, Whaea Toni and I did a karanga for the cultural festival which was hosted at Kawakawa Primary school.  Tuishaly and I had a different roles after karanga and that was  stage hand, we only helped when the other stage hands  left. My experience wasn't the best because I could have done better in my karanga because it wasn't the best of my ability.  My favorite act was when Te Rau Pou Manawa o Kawakawa did the poi and the haka because they were so enthusiastic in what was happening.
