Then we got straihgt into the energiser . The energiser that we played was called snake . So basically there was a tagger and that tagger had to lay on his\her stumach and crawl around tagging people around the tagger and whoever got tagged had to become a snake as well . Then we played our other energiser and it was called tic tac toe \ knots and crosses whatever you wanted to call it but we played it with chairs and we had to get into groups of 5s but 1 group was in a group of 6 and then we had to name our group the name of our group was IDK once we got into groups Mr matt put chairs on the floor so that we could sit on then and we had to verse other groups .

Inferring Thoughts and Emotions
LI: to infer thoughts and emotions
This week for reading Mr Wongs groups are learning about inferring and what inferring is . I think that inferring is reading between the lines or thinking about what another character would be feeling . For this DLO we had to infer using the short movie \ film called For The Birds . We also had to stop the video and show inside the DLO where we stopped the video at and we had to infer on that part of the video that was stopped .We also had to infer and also show the evidence . we had to make an inference as a group but instead of sharing it to the whole group we had to make separate ones but have all the same inferences for the 1st ones the 2nd , 3rd 4rth slides are the slides that we did together so we did those with every group and on the 5th slide it is the slide that was the inference made with our individual groups . And then the rest of the slides are the slides that i Have inferred on my own . ( by the way PJ stands for Percy Jackson that is the reading group that I am in ) If you would like to look at our LS1 school site here it is school site .

What Can you tell ? \ Inferring
LI: To inferr information from a picture
This week for reading we are doing inferring . Mr Wong's reading groups for reading have did inferring before but not in a google slide presentation . At first we had to get into groups of 2 I got into a group of 4 because i missed out on what our reading groups were doing on Monday so Mr wong found it easier if he put us into groups of 4 , The people inside of my group are Me , Karlos , Alice and Leon .Since we did inferring before we had to kinda remember what inferring means . Inferring means reading between the lines and inferring could also means thinking what other people are feeling .At first we did an example with Mr wong and his reading groups the photo was of a church and a bus .If you would like to look at my group slide presentation you are welcome too .

Today LS1 had kiwi can . At first Mr matt asked us what was our topic , our topic is conflict resolution and he also asked us what was our new theme ? our new theme is caring for our community . After that we talked about how we could have looked after our community . I think that we could look after our community by picking up rubbish and trying not to litter . After all the talking we got straight into the energiser . The first game we played was remote . How we played this : First Mr matt explained the rules to us the rules were that if he sad play then we had to just walk , if he said fast forward then we had to walk fast ( almost close to running ) , If he said pause then we had to jump , if he said stop then we would have had to lie down on the mat . Then we talked about how Liberians and people around our community could help us . I think that Liberians can help us by letting us take books and if you have a question a Liberians can help you .

Different types of Rhymes
This week me and my class are learning about dr seuss and rhymes and poems .But for this we had to make a google slide pressentation and then get into a group of four I got into a got into a group of tree because we had to have one person from Mr ogilvies writing groups but we didn't have anybody from Mr ogilvies Writing groups so we had to be a group of three . The people inside of my group are Alice , Miiana and Me ( Liane ) . Inside of this presentation it talks about different types of rhyme . I think there are more types but Me and my group docused on End rhyme , Assonance , Alliteration and consonance if you would like to find out any information about these rhymes you can read this google slide presentation that me and my group made . I think that reading Dr seuss books made it easier to understand these types of rhymes because all of these rhymes where used inside of most of the books that we were reading had rhymes and the part of the rhyme could be used as an example inside of our google slide pressentation . When we walked up to Mr wong The first thing that Mr wong asked was what is Rhymes ? Rhymes are words that sound the same . This helped me a lot because if i ever want to write a poem or a rhyme I basically know all the things to use .
LI: To learn about Rhymes using Dr Seuss Books .
Author Study
Today Ls1 had to make an author study about Dr Seuss . At first Mr Wong read my class a book that we voted on reading . The book that our teacher read was green eggs and ham . After that he explained things to us and then we had to go to the class site and make a copy of this template and atribute images , and also answer the questions that were already on the template that Mr Wong made . Most of the questions were like when and where he was born and questions like that . If you would like to find out more of the questions that I answered you can look at the DLO That I have made . My question is " Why do you think Theador seuss Made books ? If you have read a book made by Dr Seusss what was it . some of his books are Green eggs and ham , horton hears a who , The lorax , The cat in the had , One FIsh Two fish Red fish Blue fish ,Ohh the places you'll go and many more because Theador seuss made over 70 books . If you have a favourite book wtiter or journal write who would it be ? Mine is Theador seuss.

LI: to find out information about Max Gimblett
This week for inquiry we are learning about Max Gimblett . He is an Auckland artist .We had to make 3 quatrefoils , 3 digital and 3 papper . 1 had to be in paint which was the max gimblett quatrefoil , 1 had be in pastelle which was the armistice day quatrefoil and the christmas one had to be in pencil .
My Max gimblett art has black as the background colour and gold squares .I made this to remid me of Max Gimblett's art . My favourite thing about my quartrefoil is that it was a really simple quatrefoil to make . And even though Max gimblett has a lot of art the one that I chose was still my favourite .
My armistice art is a poppy quatrefoil . I used a poppy for my armistice day quatrefoil to remember all the people who died on the 11th hour . I also used a poppy because I thought that it was the best thing to use for me .
And My christmas quatrefoil has a black background colour, (I am not sure why its black )it has green and yellow \gold

Maori
On Wednesday we had maori with Miss Whea Odie . She read us a book and it was called paikea . Paikea is a maori Ancestor .( she is a lady ) After she read us the book she told us to go on google maps and find where Whangara is . And where the school is . This book was inappropriate for me and other kids in my class thought that but the book was a good book that read to me and half of my class .
Kiwi Can
Every Wednesday we have kiwi can . On Wednesday we had a new theme and our theme was protect our community and we also talked about how we could protect our community , I think that we could protect our community by picking up rubbish so that sharks and other sea animals don't die from rubbish . after that we got straight into our energiser . Our energiser was called Catch me if you can , first half of my class got into a circle and we had to put our left hand by our side facing up and the person beside us had to put there index finger on the other persons hand and then when Mr matt said go then one person will have to take hold there finger before it left and the other person had to try and move there finger before that other person tried to catch it .
Energiser 2
Our second energiser was called ten second tag . So the way to play this game is that we went out by the court and Mr matt had to call somebody's name and then that person only had 10 seconds to tag someone and if that person didn't tag someone with in that 10 seconds then that person will have to be out .
