Description: On Monday afternoons, we split into 2 groups. We either go to Kapa Haka or E Te Reo. I go to E Te Reo. Over the past few weeks, we have been learning the different types of food in Maori. I have made a Pic Collage showing the different foods. We have also been learning a song called Aotearoa by Stan Walker. To learn the song, we translated all of the lyrics with Maori Dictionary. Then we started learning the song by singing it and getting really good. Now most of us know the song off by heart.
Feedback/Feedforward: I think you did well at explaining about what you did when we go to kapa haka but you could of showed what teachers you worked with. Tom
Evaluation: I think I worked well at learning both the song and the foods in Maori.
Description: Last week on Tuesday, Douglas Park School came to our school and we had a sports exchange. There were 5 sports that we could play; Rugby, Soccer, Netball, Basketball and Hockey. We won overall the Soccer and Basketball Trophies, but they won Rugby, Netball and Hockey, so they won the overall prize flag. I played rugby and I got interviewed as well. Thanks Max!
Feedback/Feedforward: I think you explained it well and told us what Trophies you got. good job
My Feedforward would be if your team was passing good and if you got any goals. Shaun.b
Evaluation: I think I did well in the interview acting very professional. Next time I could try and get my groups task done quicker.
Description: Over the last 6 weeks we have been doing science. On the first week, because I am in Nic's class, I was with Nic for 3 weeks. This week, last week and the week before, I am in Troy's Inquiry group, doing weather. First we chose a topic to research on. I chose thunder. Second we found an experiment on Weather Wiz Kids. Third we did some research and we tweeted our question on Twitter. Then we did an experiment and recorded it. Now we are putting it here for the rest of the world to see.

Feedback/Feedforward: I think you did the description really well but try explanation how thunderstorms work #tomhrss
Evaluation: I think that I have done really well with time spent doing my experiment, but maybe I could explain the real thunderstorm more.
Description: In maths a few weeks ago we did a Google Doc about fractions as a rich task. The top line are questions which give away the thinking, and the bottom line of questions are questions where you have to think about what to do.
Feedback/FeedForward: Good strategies Tane. Next time think your answers more straight. #sammrss
Evaluation: I think I did well at showing the strategies but next time show more what I was really thinking.
Description: Today I rolled two dices, and each dice means something to do with writing, like dice 2, rolled on 3 is onamateopeia. I got a two, so I did what I do, and I got another two, so I had to use alliteration.
Feedback/Feedforward: I think you could add a bit more to you're sentence but I like the game and how you make a sentence out of the numbers and how that the dice (says) what you have to make a sentence about.
-Tom
Evaluation: I agree with Tom that I could've added a bit more in my story, but I think I have explained it very well.
Description: Each Thursday afternoon we have been learning Japanese. On Wednesday, 29th June, we are going to I.P.U to see some Japanese culture, instead of going to Japan and travelling halfway across the world, although that would be nice. We have learnt so far hi, counting to 10, greetings, body parts and there is still more to learn!
Arigatoo means Thank You! Arigatoo! (A-re-ga-tò)
Feedback/Feedforward: I like how you explain what we have done and are going to do. Maybe you could tell the people who teaches you Japanese. #juvenarss
Evaluation: I think I have done well at teaching a little brief bit in Japanese and explaining what I have learnt. I think that this is done high standard.
