So on Tuesday we had Tech arts where Julia and I finished our marble run and we came first in two competitions. One we just made up which was the prettiest or should I say the tidiest and the closest to exactly 20 seconds. Since we have finished our writing and reading we are now starting two new pieces of writing and reading.
Our book review is:
To write a review of a recently read book, commenting (analysing) the setting, characters and point of view.
The setting
You have to describe the setting in anyway you can.
-Date
-Time
-What year
-Season
-Area
-Country
-City
-Town
Anyway that could describe the setting to give the reader a good picture in mind.
Characters
You describe these people like descriptively or try and focus on what they are and their character traits
-Flat
-Round
-Static
-Dynamic
These four words can help you find what a character is
Flat- A flat character is someone who doesn't change themselves at all throughout the story.
Round-A round character is someone that changes throughout the story
Static-A static character is someone who doesn't grow throughout the story
Dynamic- A dynamic character is someone who grows throughout the story
I don't know what point of view is yet but i'm pretty sure i'll learn what it is.
Writing
For writing we are doing a persuasive writing task and all we learnt today was the features, layout or how things are ordered.
Layout
Introduction- The introduction involves you talking about what side your on or your three main points of why you chose that side.
1st paragraph- This contains your most important idea
2nd paragraph-This contains your most 2nd important idea
3rd paragraph-This contains your most 3rd important idea
Conclusion-This sums up what you have talked about and one last final saying of why you think this should happen.
Features
-Real life examples
-alliteration
-Facts and opinions
-Rhetorical questions
-Emotive language
-Repetition
-Quotation
-Strong words/?
On Wednesday we did Inter house sports and I played Volleyball. Mangapiko had to be the hardest team we lost against but at least we saw how good they were and Puniu. I also learnt how to add and sub fractions with different denominators. First you just try and find the lowest common multiple. Then you try and find how many times that you can multiply by the denominator to get the new one and then just multiply that number the numerator.
On Thursday I had extension Maori where I did a end of the week term assessment where everything we learnt in the term we had to display on the sheet. I got 50/50 if it weren't for Whaea Rangi giving a couple of seconds chances. After morning tea we had Kapahaka where Whaea Rangi talked her dedication towards Kapahaka and how she see's our potential in our development. Then we did a few songs and went to school singing. I couldn't wait for singing cause I was getting bronze badge and two bands to get my complete pack and also cause I was the first year seven. From that moment forward everyone was calling me Mrs Bronze. My goal is to get my silver this year or maybe my gold if I get my silver in Term 3
hopefully.
At Choir I learnt a new song that was performed in the Greece show called We go together.
On Friday we had Tech arts where I learnt how to use Science vocabulary correctly. It was really fun and we also won the the pack up time for a prize. Then we did Maori where we finished our Story on the Waikato. We also learnt about point of view
That is all I learnt this week. See ya. I'll keep you guys updated each week.(:
