Reading Test

On Tuesday I had my first reading test with Mrs Golder. I was scared that I might move down a level. When I started my test I read a story called,  "Captain Kirk" silently, then had to read it out loud to her. When I had finished reading the story, the teacher gave me a lot of questions which I had to answer. Some were easy and some were hard. When I finished my test I was pleased and happy that I had moved up a level.

Happy Birthday Miss Misela!!💝

Happy Birthday Miss Misela

Buddy Reading With Room 1

On Tuesday we walked to Room 1 to have buddy reading with them. When we arrived, Mrs Pedersen gave us a buddy to read with. Peni, my assistant, and I were with Daniel. Peni and I listened carefully to the words he was saying.

One thing I liked about Daniel's reading was that he pointed to the words and he was trying his best to sound out the unfamiliar words he came across.

Hip Hop With Jess!

On Tuesday we had a hip hop a session at the Multi Purpose Room with Jess, our choreographer. 

First we greeted Jess then we went straight to the warm ups. The warm ups were quite funny because of the moves she gave us. 

After the warm ups we played musical statue. When the music stopped we had to pause doing whatever movement or shape Jess told us. 

For our sesson the song we danced to was Lean and Dab. 

When we finished the dance and everyone was sweaty and tired.

Road Safety Week

Last week our whole school has been learning about road safety. My teacher (Mrs Golder) separated us into five different groups to write about this topic.  My group's name was Road Rangers, we made seven slides for each of us. Some students in the class made a survey about road safety. Mrs Golder and Mr Reid observed the kids who have been wearing their seat belt and crossing the road safely to win a prize.

Our Daily Fitness

On the first day of school we did running, we lined up in our class lines from Room 12 to Room 9. First the teachers had to spread themselves around the senior block to make sure we were still jogging. We had to jog for ten minutes.

Mrs Golder stood on the hill timing us and yelling at whoever who doesn't satisfy her.

When we finished we cooled down our bodies by jogging slowly on the spot, we also put our hands on our head so our lungs could receive more oxygen.
