ilalio geometry

This term in room 22 we are learning about Geometry in maths. Geometry is the study of sizes, shapes and position of 2D shape and 3D figures.

Every day after lunch time we get separated into different maths classes. I go to room 22 Miss T is the teacher in room 22. I like to study shapes and measuring stuff.

ilalio no lettering

In room 22 we been learning about design process.There are 6 different steps. step 1 identify a need are?please no lettering in the school grounds,step 2 research find images, step 3 generate ideas find shapes, colours, step 4 find solutions, step 5 reflect, last step 6 evaluate.

Room 22 is now on step 3. Why is generating ideas important? I think generate ideas are important because if one of your ideas don’t work these always a couple of ideas left to use.

What I will use for my sign around Pt England school. Its going to say please do not letter. these are the thing I will use to make my sign. metal, paint red white green, screws and different shapes.

I am really looking forward to make a sign saying no lettering.

BRAILLE

In our reading group (Kiwi) we learned about a great inventor called Louis Braille. He was a blind person in a accident when he was only three.He comes from a country called France this is my Braille alphabet try and guess what it says its shown above.

Kapa Haka

Every Friday this term the year 7&8 students attended Taonga time. Each teacher has a different passion for example my teacher is very passionate about Kapa Haka. If you don’t know what Taonga means it means treasure in Maori.


There are different Taonga time groups like Kapa Haka, Technology, Sports, Music,Team building, Art, ICT, Maori and Science. The group I am in is called Kapa Haka. If you don’t know what Kapa Haka is its something special to the Maori. What we do though this whole year is perform in the front of Pt England school and also in Museum.

I am very glad to be in the Kapa Haka group because I like to learn a little about Maori. I am enjoying Kapa Haka this year.

Net ball

After lunch time on Thursday room 22 went out on the courts to play netball. Emma is from the Auckland netball club, she was teaching us some skills.

What I learned from that day was how to chest pass to your friend. The other thing she taught us was when you’re receiving the ball you have to do ice cream. What ice cream means is when you do two steps. You should stop on your 2nd step then you will received the ball.

We had free time to play corner ball. How do you play corner ball? its similar to netball but you don't shoot the ball in the hoop. The team has each corner to try to score a goal. There are suppose to be only one person in each corner. I really liked my team because our team was fast and we had more boys then girls.

I really enjoyed learning how to play net ball I'm looking froward to learn some more skills next week on Thursday.
