Learning Goals!!

Kia Ora!
Welcome Back To My BLOG!


This Weeks blog is going to be about my new learning goals. We all had our learning goals layout given to us by the teachers a few terms ago.
I personally think that they were very boring but still shared our old learning goals.
Tis term we got to create our own layout and add in the goals.

This is the process I took to create my layout.
First I created an ombre background with blue. I was thinking that blue was going to be the theme throughout but I think that changed a fair bit because there is a lot of colours.

Next I had to find a way to add in the goals in a form of shape but also make it creative. So I ended up making 5 boxes all different colors with an ombre effect.

Then I found the perfect font and color.

I then decided to create a few shapes all colored with greeny blue in the background. I also added in stars so fill up some of the small gaps.

We had to create it knowing that we can only do the Reading and Writing goals so it was hard to fit in proportions and that was the most challenging part.
My favorite part was creating the colors and the shapes.


Thank you for coming onto my blog please leave a comment sharing your positive thoughtful and helpful opinions. I cant wait to read them. Please add in feedback on what I could improve on and DO you have learning goals? Or what do you enjoy creating?

Thanks!

Come Dine With Me!



Kia Ora!

This is another home learning blog!

It is about three celebrities to come and dine with you,  you have to wright a letter to them asking them to come with you. I have chosen some of my heros that are in the public eye.
I think that this is so fun and I really enjoyed making my slide to share it with you guys.


What are your favorite celebrities? Why? What do they do?
I have learnt somethings about how you start a letter. I really enjoyed this and my favorite part was picking the celebrities.
Enjoy!




Thank YOU! For watching and please give me some feedback on my slide!! I really want to be able to improve my work! I hope you continue coming onto my blog and I cant wait to read your awesome comments!

Holes.

Kia Ora!
Welcome back to my learning blog!

Today's work will be about some reading work our class ( Rimu has been working on ).
This work it about the class story holes, we have to answer the questions given about the stories then present it in an eye catching way and share it onto our learning blog. I have turned my questions in a poster like thing.

This activity is one of many in the learning slide we are all working on. So far this is about 5th or 6th day of reading holes and were on the 3rd or 4th chapter I believe. I an excited to share it with you guys and there will most likely be more reading work shared like Novel Study and more Holes.

This is the poster I have created and these are the questions I had to answer.

  • Your feelings about what the book is going to be like
  • Your ideas about what might happen in the story 
  • Any ideas about the main character Stanley Yelnats.




have you ever read the book holes?
If so what was your favorite part and is there anything you would like to share about the book. If so share it in the comments. Thanks for coming onto my blog and Please write feedback on my work so far, preferably feedback on the questions or poster.

A cooking ingredient or something which grows and looks attractive?

Kia Ora!
This blog is a little late because you know first week back at school and the teachers made a little bit of a mistake. But we all have those days!

This blog will be about Homophones! Do you know what a homophone is? If so then keep reading anyway if not then let me teach you something!

I have created a small DlO explaining what a homophone is and some examples of the most common mistakes that people make with homophones. Like Their, There and They're.
We had to go through a workbook teaching us about Synonyms Antonyms
Homonyms Homophones. I choses to share with you about Homophones as you can see.

But if you don't know what some of the other options are these are some of their meanings.
Synonyms are a better word for something with a better impact e.g Look and Gaze.
Antonyms are the opposite of a word, e.g Happy  and Sad.
Homonyms are a word that is spelt and said the same way but mean different things e.g die as in stop living and die the cube used in bored games.

I have learnt a lot of things with these workbooks and now know and understand what a Homonym and a Homophone is and can now teach others.

My DLO!

Gold Mining!

Kia Ora! Welcome to/back to my blog and I am so grateful that you have read this blog post please sit back,read and of course enjoy! Who knows you may just learn something new!

Today I will again be sharing one of my storys and work from my school journal.
Just before I get into everything that I have done, enjoyed and learnt I really wanted to say something and couldn't think of a better way than by sharing it in one of my blog posts. Please if your a student say thank you to them, they have to batter with a huge classroom of children and create specific work for each child/groupe and I cant imagine how hard that would be. Thanks just thought I would add that in.

This past few weeks we have been doing a new school journal and this one is definitely my favorite one so far this is because of the storys and the work that I have produced I think that I have done my best in this. This story I will be sharing is called " Hatters Gold" and it is one of my favorite stories from the journal.

If you would like to read the story before continuing to read on and see my work that is awesome and I will link the book Here: Link to story :).

What School Journals Do For Our Learning: 
1 They help our writing skills by writing a powerful summary about the story ( without parting or giving anything away) #
2 They help us understand the text.
3 They create specific activities for us to do for each story.
4 They practically double our vocabulary by us finding 5 new words from each story and finding the meanings and to prove we understand it we would also have to write a good sentence involving that word.


Now For My Work.
 My 5 words, sentences and their meanings.

My Summary Of The Story.

This Work Is Questions From The Story (so this may not make total sense if you haven't read the book.)

5 Facts About The Strike & Gold Rush With Biteable Video To Share Them.

Link To Biteable.

Thanks for watching and I am so grateful that you have came onto my blog and please let me know some of your feedback on this post I would love to make some of my work better and you can definitely help me with that and I will definitely read all of your amazing comments and try to reply to all.
Thanks again for reading my post!

Fractions!!

Kia Ora! My name is Maddison and Welcome to my blog!

Today I am sharing with you a method I have been taught this week.
I will share with you my slide on how to find fractions of amounts and I really, really hope you guys try it out and/or learn something from this blog post.
This is a different type of the many different things that you can use with fractions. It's a little bit different than chunking  with fractions.
I found this challenging when we had to watch a video of how to do this and take notes, this is because I found that the video was hard to understand in some ways. But after time I figured it out and now I can do this method easily.
So this slide is me taking the role of the teachers and you the student so as my teacher would say pay attention and remember to as question!
I hope that you all enjoy.


Thanks again for coming onto my blog and I hope you w\enjoyed and learned something from my blog post. I cant wait to read your amazing comments I will make sure to reply to them. Please send me some feedback because that will help alot with me trying to in[prove all of my work!

Home Learning

Kia Ora!
My name is Maddison and I am so glad you came into my blog!

This is about my summary on the book that I have read and my recommendations aka pros and cons.
If you could pick one author to read for ever who would it be? Mine would be Stephen King.
I am going to share with you my recommendations on why or why not you should read this book.
This book it by a well known author known as Geronimo Stilton although Geronimo is not real and these books are really written by an amazing lady named Elisabetta Dami. I think that all of her different types of series based on the same family and lots of different characters really reflect her. This book is from one of her mini series and I think that is a good book for being on the move.

My Review.
I think that this is an amazing book although it could have been a little longer but even though it is short it has amazing language to give the best pictures in the reader's head and it feels like your standing there watching what's going one. I would definitely recommend this book to early a beginner readers.

Summary


Thanks for watching this and I really hope you all continue to come onto this blog and I cant wait to see all of your amazing comments and I hope that you all send awesome feedback to help me improve my work more and more. Thanks again.
