Poetry Response

 Poetry Response

In the past week, in literacy, we have been working on a well-known poem by the name of "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" and the poet named William Wordsworth. We put all out learning about the poem into a google drawing so today I'll be sharing my work with you.

When I read the title, The connection I made was when I was at school one day, there weren’t many people that came like my friends. So I didn’t really have anyone to play with at break times so, in other words, I was pretty lonely

The poem is organized in four stanzas and each stanza has six lines. The Structure is A, B, A, B, C, C and it's the same for each stanza.

To me, the tone of the poem is happy and free.

There are also poetic devices in the poem like, personification and simile. That's all that I can find.

To me the meaning of the poem is that you will never be alone and that you will have someone by your side.

Prototec

Prototec Score

In maths yesterday, my group all did a prototec to check up on how we are with our basic facts. I tried stage six on prototec because I thought I'd challenge myself. I did this prototec yesterday because yesterday I didn't get time to make a blog post about it. Here is my work:

Today in maths, we all completed a prototec to check up on how we are. We had fifteen minutes to complete it. Here is an example of my work: 

I think I have done pretty good although I did get two wrong so my next step would be to keep practising so I'm good and fast at my stage 6 and then I can move on to trying to attempt at doing stage 7.

What Is Poetry

Inquiry And Arts Reflections

Inquiry And Arts Reflections

Art: I thought our Tapa Art unit was interesting because I had never learned about it before and there were a lot of interesting things that I never knew of. Basically, it was very new to me and I enjoyed it.

If I rate myself out of 10 for how well I participated in our art unit, I would give myself an 8/10 because I was almost finished but didn't fully finish it.

In our Tapa Art unit, I learned:

1) I learned new and creative designs and how to do them.

2) I learned how people create tapa cloths and the things to make them.

3)What people use tapa cloths for.

Inquiry: I thought our Social Science unit about inventions throughout time was interesting because I learned things about how life was back in the days and it was pretty rough and strict.

If I rate myself out of 10 for how well I participated in our Inquiry unit, I would give myself 8/10 because for me it was very fun to learn about seen there were a lot of different things.

In our innovations unit, I learned:

1)Only rich kids could go to school.

2)A lot of things were different than now.

3)There were a lot of strict rules you had to respect.

Samoa Language Week

Samoa Digital Activities

Talofa Tagata Uma! Last week in literacy we created a DLO around Samoa because last week it was Samoan Learning Week. The DLO that we created was some tasks/activities about Samoa. Here is my work:

  

I really enjoyed doing this because I learnt new things about Samoa. My next step is to learn more words in Samoan because I'm sure that it will come helpful in life. Did you like my blog post and did you learn new things about Samoa like I did?

Writing MindMups

Being a Courteous Writer

Today I created a MindMup so I can identify and remember the things we need to do when writing so we are showing courtesy to our audience. For many people in my class, creating a MindMup was a new experience. Heres my work:

My next step is to use MindMup more for learning because to me it's very useful. Are you going to start using MindMup like me? Did you like my blog post?
