Sharing and celebrating my learning.

We will achieve this by:

Checking our work when we have finished: is it my best effort?
Making sure we understand what the instructions are by listening to the teacher
Making small goals we can reach for and achieve in our work and reaching for them
Taking a photo of the work we are proud of during the week and submitting it to go on Hero for our caregivers to see
Trying again and again with something hard
We will post reflections on our work on our own blogs
Talking to others and getting their feedback on how you are going with your work
Knowing that sometimes we don’t know things or can’t do things well - YET - but we keep trying

Success Indicator:

The quality of our work will improve and we will put more photos of our work we are proud of on Hero
Our whānau will be proud of the work we have completed
We will feel happy and proud of ourselves and our work
We will check we know what we should do for our learning
We will have posted TWO reflections on our blogs

Each morning we will get our brains moving by learning and practicing small things. It will make us smarter!

Words are where humans store knowledge. So we will build our knowledge by reading these articles. We will also increase our vocabulary, improve our reading stamina, and enjoy reading every day.

When you have finished reading, write two or three things that you learned from the article and would like to remember in the classroom Book Of Learning online.

Learning to Type

Using our chromebooks, we need to practice our typing. Whaene Vicki can type WITHOUT looking! This is called touch typing. You have to practice a lot to get to that stage, but you can get better and USE MORE THAN ONE FINGER if you practice just a little bit!

Remember to have your headphones on, or your sound turned off.

The more you practice the faster you will become. KEEP TRYING. It gets easier.

Persuasive Writing

We are learning to write persuasively. This week we are looking at what we need to include in each paragraph:

Paragraph 1 - The Introduction

Our topic is introduced - what is our topic about?
What side of the argument we are on

Paragraph 2 - Reason 1

Our first reason why we are for or against our topic. State the reason straight out. But then...
Back up your reason with evidence that supports your reason. If you don't like green bananas because they affect your mouth, WHY is that a bad thing? "Green bananas affect your mouth. They stick to the roof of your mouth and make your teeth feel furry which feels gross! Have you ever felt like you needed to brush your teeth after eating something? It is not great and I don't recommend it. THAT'S what eating green bananas is like."

Paragraph 3 - Reason 2

Our first reason why we are for or against our topic. State the reason straight out. But then...
Back up your reason with evidence that supports your reason.

Paragraph 4 - Reason 3

Our first reason why we are for or against our topic. State the reason straight out. But then...
Back up your reason with evidence that supports your reason.

Paragraph 5 - Conclusion

This is where we wrap our story up.
Restate what side of the argument you are on
Mention the three reasons briefly to remind your readers why they should listen to you and agree with you.
