Spendid Swimming

Over the last 2 weeks we have been going to graham Condon  for swimming lessons. The first task was to find out what swimming group so we all had to show the instructors our freestyle and backstroke the were 3 different groups lane 8 lane 7 and lane 6 I was in lane 7 and my instructor was jade. For most of the days we were just doing lessons but for the last 3 days we did life jackets  boats and pajamas. Overall it was a lot of fun. 

Have you ever had swimming lessons at Graham Condon?

Culture

Our learning focus for PBL this term is about cultural stories.

Hi welcome back to my blog. This week for PBL we are learning about our culture. After school we had to go home and ask our parents what culture we are from if we didn't all ready know. My parents told me that I have some  Irish,English and a little bit of Maori. The Irish myth is the myth of the leprechaun. I  don't really have any traditions in my family. The food in Ireland is soda bread I wounder if its made out of soda?. In Maori some of there food is potato and kumara.

What's your culture and do you have any traditions?

The Meerkats

 This week we have been learning about speech marks and apostrophes.

The Meerkats where eating dragon fruit "Yuck" said the smallest meerkat. The biggest meerkat said "Yum".
The wisest and oldest meerkat said "This fruit has been around for years it's about to stop growing".
The queen of meerkats said "Make sure all the dragon  fruit trees are coped down at once".
The the fattest meerkat said "Your queen  why do we have to cut down all the dragon fruit trees".
The queen got really rage and screamed and screamed " have you not been listing!!!!! The dragon fruit trees have become possinus Does that answer your question" The fattest one said " Yes" 

  The middle meerkat said "What are you talking about it's so sweet it will rot your teeth".

What other  punctuation could I put in my story? 

Healthy Harold

A couple of week's ago the life ed van came to st Francis of Assisi school. Each class had two workshops. My class learnt how to read how much of everything is in something like a chocolate bar. We also learnt about kindness and did a play on it. We all had 1 card to focus on. I was in a group with Neila and Harriet. Our play was about a boy called Cory who  wanted some chocolate milk but the school didn't have any left. The life ed truck sent us back to class with a booklet that had a lot of activity's  to do. That really kept us busy. I hope you enjoyed my blog about the  life ed truck.
