Sacraments of Initiation

 We are learning about the Sacraments of Initiation. They are Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. We had to add a symbol and a ritual for each for them. The symbol I chose were a candle for God's light, a dove for the Holy Spirit and the bread and wine for Jesus' blood and body. It was easy to find the Sacraments of Initiation because they are written in our classroom on the board and on our Word Wall. I liked searching the pictures because there were lots to choose from. It was kind of fun making the slide all at the same time because people kept changing everyone's background.

Moa Report

 For the past two weeks we have been researching an extinct animal from New Zealand. I chose the moa because it looked like a fun one to do.

My success criteria was to use some short sentences, some sentences with joining words (and, because) and to use some sentences with extra information. I think I did all of these.

What did you learn about the moa from reading my report?

Moa were from the Dinornithiformes family.

It had rough feathers which were brown and black. It looked like an ostrich because it had a small head, long neck, large body, strong legs and no wings and it could run fast. The females were bigger than the males. It was 3.6 meters tall and it lived in the wet brush grassland and forest. His diet was made up of small stones, pebbles and plant parts and twigs and shrubs. The maori people killed moa for its meat and made fish hook jewelry from its bones. They also cut down its habitat and ate all its eggs.

Maths Times Table Check-up

This term we have been learning our times tables. Today we had a check-up.  I have been learning my 2x and 5x. Red means you got it wrong green means I got it right Orange means I didn't answer in time  

I enjoyed the maths times tables because it was challenging.

I  found it tricky to answer because the timer was short.

I found out I still need to learn a lot of times tables.
