A value I have been showing consistently and how: Connect because i have been hanging with different people 

A value that I think I need to improve on and how: Be brave 

Geometry

During Maths week (week 4), we have been focussing on Geometry. We had a choice of 10 different Geometry based activities. We needed to select 5 different activities and provide evidence when completed. 

The evidence I collected:

What I enjoyed about this maths week was: Getting to do different stuff that we wouldn't usually do in maths 

What challenged me during this week: Getting it done on time and making sure the marble run didn't fall over  

My next step in Geometry is: Making all of my stuff better

Published writing:Have you ever felt like your face has turned inside? Well I have, and your about to find out.

I awkwardly walked over to the swing and got tied to a black seat. As I got closer and closer to the top, I could fell my nerves tensing up. Yes I finally made or did I.

Tōtara Weekly Reflection

Tōtara Weekly Reflection

Term: 1 Week: 4

Something I am proud of from camp:

I am proud of making it all the way to the top of the giant swing because I am a little scared of heights and me and my dad where the only people to make it to the top.

A highlight from camp for me was making it to the top of the high ropes three times and some bits I had to climb they were taller than me.

What challenged me over last two weeks? The thing that challenged me was getting all my activity's done at camp because it was poring down and we were getting soaked.

How did I overcome these challenges or what do I need to do to overcome them in the future? Next time I just don't need worry about the rain.

This fortnights Tōtara goal was active listening and I achieved/showed this by always turning my body around and always listening.

Next week I would like to achieve in class is listen more.
