My Michael Rosen Poem

Kia ora bloggers,

This week for our writing and reading we have been foucusing on Michael Rosen if you do not no him I am sorry he is the funniest poet in the world. This week my goal was Plan writing using a variety of ways. Use visual and written language features to engage the audience. Use language that is suitable to the topic, audience and purpose.. Use simple and compound sentences with a variety of beginnings, lengths and structures. Attempt more difficult punctuation. Write content relevant to the task. This week our create is to Imagine or remember a time when you have been in trouble. Tell the story, in the form of a narrative poem, on how you committed the ‘Crime’ but try to make it as funny as possible. Include lots of peculiar noises or sounds for effect as Michael Rosen did in his narrative poem ‘Chocolate Cake.'

This create was really fun beacuse I love writing poems and I think sometimes my stories about being told off.

Here is my create:


What is the funniest time you have been told off?

Magnificent Maths

Kia ora bloggers,

For maths this week we are learning about angles. Our create was to make a poster or slideshow explaining angles and our goal was to measure angles using degrees (Identify and construct right, acute and obtuse angles). I added pictures and spent time custom making the background.

This create was super fun to make and this goal was also fun!

Majestic Maths

Kia Ora Bloggers,

For the past two weeks in maths we have been focusing on probability in maths. This week we have been looking mainly on tree diagrams. In our workshop we watched heaps of videos that helped us learn what a tree diagram is and how to make one. For our create we needed to make a slide or a poster that showed what we learnt in our workshops, our poster or slide needed to include A definition of tree diagram, an example question, that can be taken from the follow up questions, A tree diagram and organised list explaining the outcomes, conversions of fractions, decimals and percentages.

Here is my create


Have you ever made a tree diagram?

House of Bricks

Kia Ora,

On Friday years 5-8 had a Lego day with House of Bricks. 

My favourite Lego activity was the mosaics because I got to design really pretty designs on the lego plate and it was very peaceful but I didn’t really enjoy breaking apart my creations because I really liked them and I didn’t want to break them.


My least favourite Lego activity was pass the bricks because I tried really hard in the first 5 minutes but some people did not listen and did not make a restaurant and one person just added random stuff on it that ruined it.


The activity that tested my perseverance the most was designing race cars because Mia and I were in a peer and it only went a really short distance. And I learnt that it helps with the length of the car.


The most challenging activity was designing race cars because it was really hard to know what to add and what to not add and what it needed to go fast.


I did not enjoy working collaboratively with others because I don’t like people touching and ruining my work and I like being in control.

Ravishing RE

Kia ora bloggers,

For the past two weeks we needed to make a video about the Rosary. You could ether do it independently, with a buddy or in a group of three. I choose to do mine with a buddy and I did it with Lauren, Lauren and I made a biteable. When we were learning about the Rosary we watched a video, and a couple articles and also read about the mysteries. When our teacher was searching for video to put on our learn create, share there was no good videos on youtube so our create was to make a RE video and if it was amazing it could be posted on youtube. It was super fun I really enjoyed making the biteable.

Magnificent Maths

Kia Ora Bloggers,

This week for maths we had three different goals to prove. My first goal is round whole numbers to the nearest 10, 100, 1000, then my other goal was say the numbers 1, 10, 100 and 1000 more or less and my last goal is round decimals to the nearest whole number. 

In our workshop we did practice questions so we would know what the create were.

My create was to create a poster or a video explaining the goals, I decided to make a poster on a google slide so all my goals would be on one doc. I really enjoyed this create because I got to make three different creates and got to learn lot of new things.

Here is my create:


Do you know what number you would round 5433 to?
