Scales, timetables and Charts

In Maths we have been learning to interpret and use scales, Timetables and charts.

Here is a link to our online modelling book.

These are the activities that I have completed as part of this learning.

• Working with Data
• Home Run
• The heat is on
• Scale of events.
• Gigantic Jumbo

• When and weather - I have evidence in my maths book
• Roundabout Rugby - I have evidence in my maths book 

My next Step is to apply the new knowledge that I have gained to real life situations eg using airport/bus timetables.

We played basketball i showed the active thinking values by making even teams because at the start of the game the teams we'rent even because people wanted to be with their friends and we had 15 people wanting to play basketball.

Choir Leadership Excellence #4

Today at Choir we ran over the songs that we are having the most trouble with, those are Bleak midwinter/winter wonderland and weather with you. We weren't that confident in them, and because music festival is coming up soon we really need to get to work. I think we made some good progress and think we could definitely take on music festival.

I showed the CARE values by respecting others rights to learn and my own.

Elections Writing

WALT: Write an effective argument for our chosen political party.

Do you know who you’re voting for? Otherwise you need to listen here I am confident that the best political party is National Three points for example: Cap doctor's visits to 18 dollars allow police to search houses for dangerous weapons or drugs Increase drug treatment and education the first policy I am explaining is Cap doctor's visits to 18 dollars

My first policy is: Cap doctor's visits to 18 dollars

This means that people that are poor can afford to go to the doctor’s another reason is that you can check if you have an illness for 18$ or if you need a check up another reason why is that people on a bad salary may not earn enough because if you can't go to the doctor there will be consequences another important policy is allow police to search houses for dangerous weapons or drugs

My second policy is: Allow police to search houses for dangerous weapons or drugs  

This policy means that there will be less dangerous weaponry around this area or otherwise if we don’t have this policy there will be more danger for example this policy is a good idea because we will get rid of the weaponry this policy is also good because the police will search for meth and fake cannabis because having fake cannabis can lead to consequences Another important policy is increase drug treatment and education

My third policy is: Increase drug treatment and education

This policy leads to be that we will have better treatment and education for example this policy is a good idea because there will be better education for children and other people otherwise we won’t be able to get good education this is also a good policy because the drug treatment will be raised so not being able to steal drugs there are many good policies for national but there is some bad ones like Legalize euthanasia by ACT

My Argument is: Legalize Euthanasia  (ACT) (A Injection that will kill you if you are terminally ill)  

ACT would legalize euthanasia in some circumstances which would be bad for example: If teenagers get a hold of this the could commit suicide and could lead to fatal consequences another reason If people got ahold of this they could sell it and or kill people however national does not do this so we are going to review the 3 national policies that I have explained to you before

I know who i’m voting for because of their policy’s

National is the best party in my opinion and it leads to that because of the policies I have talked about some of the policy's for national but their are many more great policy’s for example capping doctors visits so I know who i’m voting for do you?

My next steps are: to explain more about the policies

Koru Games Reflection

In the Koru Games the sport I competed in was Touch Rugby

Our team won 4 games

I found the experience to be great because it was a lot of fun to be able to play around with friends

In terms of working with Individuals and Groups; my solo level is relational because I can work positively

For Teamwork; my solo level is relational because I was working really well with my team

Individuals and groups	I need help to work in a group (with teachers or other students	I can work in a group with my friends.	I can work in a group with anyone in my  year level or team	I can respond positively to the needs of others	I can reflect on how well I work with the group and seek feedback on how I can improve
Teamwork	I need help to interact with others. I need help to participate in a team.	I can interact with others one to one. I can participate in a team.	I can interact with others in a small group. I can participate and take responsibility in a team.	I can participate and take responsibility in a team and explain my choices in terms of team outcomes.

Letter Writing

In Writing we have been learning to: Write a formal letter.

We have followed the writing process and have planned and drafted a formal letter.

Here is a link to our online Modelling book.

This shows the process that we have followed.

Here is the letter that I have written Link

Here is my reflection on the letter writing that we have done.

One thing that I found challenging about writing formal letters was having to go back through and edit it

My next step is: look for more opportunities to put my letter writing knowledge into practice in the future.
