Something that has challenged me this week is… (explain why)

This week a challenged me this week is some of my reading hopscotch because some of the things I didn't understand how to do but I have learnt more how to do the tasks.

A school value that I have worked hard at achieving this week is… (add evidence and a brief explanation)

A value that I have tried to show is connect because last week I don't think I showed much of it in school, but this week was different because I have been talking to more people even little kids or my buddy class from last year (2017).

A school value that I need to work on is… (explain why)

I think that I need to work on the value of create because I haven't really wanted to create anything and we haven't really had any opportunity's except for at tech but we haven't/didn't carry on with our pencil cases.

This fortnights Tōtara goal was Behaviour Matrix and I achieved/showed this by...

I think I have showed this by making sure I did not or tried my best to stay in the green area so I wouldn't have to have time outside or anything like that.

My personal goal for next week is to make sure that i ask more questions in maths,reading and writing so i can understand it better than I probably did.

Week 7 Weekly Reflection

Tōtara Weekly Reflection

Term: 1               Week: 7

Some work I am proud of… (add evidence and a brief explanation)

I am proud of my writing about our natural disasters because I think that my journal that I am doing is interesting to read and it represents my character well. Here is an some of my draft...

‘Science in Van’ were at school and I learnt...

How to make the force of something go faster or have more power to go where it needs to be. If you want something to go faster or have more power you have to put less things in something to make it easier to left or push. I also learnt that one nail will go straight through the skin because of all of your weight, but if somebody sits on hundreds of nails it won't go through there skin.

Our inquiry is about geology and our world… (what’s some new I have learned)

I have learnt that there is a lot of natural disasters that relate to some other natural disasters like... wind tunnel and tornado they are like the same things. I also learnt that here is three different plates like... the divergent plate, convergent plate and the transform plate.

What is my personal goal for next week?

My goal for next is to manage my self and show respect and all of my values all of the time not just when the teacher is looking. I also think I need to work with people I won't get distracted by.

This fortnights Tōtara goal was Time Management and I achieved/showed this by... I think I showed this by trying everything and making sure that I worked in a spot where it was not distracting or where I would not get anything done.

Here is the start of my story.... Shivering in fear I heard the exiting and nerve wracking news "group four is doing high ropes for there next rotation" the teacher informed.

Something that has challenged me this week is… (explain why)

The thing that has most challenged me this week is getting all my work quality and done on time this is because I have been getting distracted from my friends and I am working in places I do not work well in.

A school value that I have worked hard at achieving this week is… (add evidence and a brief explanation) This week I have tried to work on is create because for passion projects Lily and I are making clay animals that are from a jungle.
