Geometry

In room 22 what we have been learning about in maths is Geometry.
Geometry is the study of size, shape and position of two dimensional shapes and three dimensional figures.

What we have been doing so far is drawing 2 dimensional shapes and 3-D figures in our books. We are also learning how to draw perfect circles with the compasses and make our own Tangram from scraps of paper.
At first i didn't know what Geometry was but now that i know I really like doing Geometry.

Hopefully next time we do Geometry we get to do more fun stuff.

Taonga Time

Every Friday’s our year 7’s and 8’s have something called Taonga time .
Taonga is a Maori way of saying treasure . The reason why we do Taonga time is so that we can learn different passions of our teachers . Every term we change around and because its only the second term we haven’t been doing it for that long .

At the moment the groups are Kapa Haka , Sports , Music , Team building .The group that i am in now is Kapa Haka my teachers name is Ms Tito . For the people that don't know what Kapa Haka is, Kapa Haka is a Maori performance . We learn new song and actions we and we also get to go out and perform at different places .

I really like being in Kapa Haka because you get to go places and perform but mostly because all my friends are in it . I cant wait till its Friday again .

First netball session

A couple of week ago room 22 went out to the courts to learn some Netball skills with a lady named Emma .

She taught us some of her dynamic stretches they were high-knees , bum-flick and the gape-vine .

She asked us to get into two groups and line up behind the yellow line facing the other person standing on the opposite side .

I really enjoyed playing and doing the skills she taught us .
But sadly we lost agents the other team. I cant wait till we have another netball session .

Creative Names

This term we are learning about creativity . Creativity is like creating something different that has never existed before , or making something with your own imagination . Our teacher Ms tito gave us a project . This i what it looked like after it was finished .

Term One Reflections

Last term when I got given my report I was pleased about my result for art . I got good in work habits , behaviour and academic progress .


The thing I want to improve on this term is my homework . Mostly because last term I didn’t hand it in on time . So this term my goal is to stay focus and always hand in and finished work on time .

But after all my term ended out to be pretty good . Hopefully when I get my another report it wont be as bad as my first one .
