Art with Mr.Cooper

This week I enjoyed Art with Mr. Cooper.

Half of the class traced a bird while the other half was tinting and shading. We also drew koro patterns inside the bird. Tinting means making the colour lighter and shading means making the colour darker.

I have traced a kiwi and the background has hills and bushes.

                                  Here is a photo of my art.

Week 2, Term 3 - Similes

This week I enjoyed our homework because it was fun and a little hard. The reason it was hard because I forgot how to write a simile. The reason why it was fun because I then found loads of fantastic and funny similes.  I'll be able to use them in my writing now. Similes are when you compare something using the words 'like' or 'as'.
                                             

                                               

                                                       This is my homework.

                                                         It shows lot of similes.

This week I am proud of me giving the inference questions a go in Reading. They are tricky!

Next week I want to work on writing because sometimes it takes me a while to think about what to write.

  

Week 4

This week we have been learning to write an argument. 

We are trying to persuade the Regional Council not to build a Countdown on Paki's Paddock.

One reason why we are trying to persuade the Regional Council is because of safety reasons.  Another reason is because if there is lots of noise then then children will not learn. 

What do you think?
