Grandparents/Grandfriends Day 2018

Grandparents/Grandfriends Day, 9th November 2018

Last Friday, St Mary's School had their annual Grandparents/Grandfriends day. Firstly, we all went to the Grandparents mass - it showed us how we should all remember our grandparents and how respectful we should be to them.

Then, after that, we went back to our classrooms and had our shared morning tea! That was when my grandparents arrived. We had some food, then went out to play. I was part of the Marimba Group at our school, so I had to go to the hall and practise.

At around 11:15, the school performance  started. Our turn to perform wasn't until about 11:45, so we had to wait a long time! When it finally was our turn, we got to play three songs. Some students played a bit wrong to how we were meant to, but it didn't really matter.

Overall, I think that Grandparents/Grandfriends day was a really awesome event and I hope each one in the future is as good as this one.

Maths Strategies

Speech 2018 Reflection

My reading goal is to read different types of books in the library.

Update: I have really enjoyed this goal a lot and I was able to achieve this goal because I have read many different books including Dragon Rider, 101 Ways To Make Money and Super Good Skills (Sort Of). I have enjoyed every single one of these books.

Persuasive Writing

Dear Mr Macmillan, Especially for you, we are going to have electronics for our destined-won Goldentime. Our fantastic idea will give us a learning opportunity for the class. Room 4 has lots of robots that we could have heaps fun with. We can mess around with them a bit and team up to find out how to use some of them. The rest of the benefits of this Goldentime will be mentioned in the next two paragraphs, so read on! If you would like too on the day, you can also play with us too! Which means you can have fun with the rest of us, and not get bored. However, you don’t have to have fun with us and do your own thing; since we can entertain ourselves with the gadgets we already have so that you do not have to bring your own. There shouldn’t be any problems since we mostly already know how to operate them. And, it will also keep everybody entertained, so you won’t have to supply some of your own electronics to keep us busy. Some people may rather be active or doing other things but we think that you’ll like this idea better than the rest of the others. You will DEFINITELY enjoy our amazing idea and have a great day doing our awesome Goldentime! Yours sincerely, Mia T, Max C and Max W.

The Ascension

What's the difference between the Ascension and the Resurrection?

Jesus rose up to Heaven more spirit than human when the Ascension happened.

Becoming completely immortal, at the Resurrection Jesus rose from the dead in human form.

One day, Jesus will come again and clean all of our sins for us.

Writing Goals

My writing goal for term 2 is to use a range of different sentence starters to make my writing more interesting.

T3 Writing Goals: To improve my sentence structures by writing sentences of different lengths and make better use of joining phrases
Reflection for T3 Writing Goals: I have been able to use SOME sentence structure in my writing. However, I do not think I should actually switch over to a NEW goal because I don't think I achieved it [as in the goal].

T4 Writing Goals: Inserting extra varieties of punctuation in places where it could use some without letting it have too much of it. [The punctuation, of course.] Also to deliberately control the size of my sentences so that they are clearer to read.
