Matariki Presenation



Reflection
I have been learning to find information by skimming and scanning. I used keywords to help me find information,  then I summarized the information I found. I found challenging to find information. My next step is to refer to success criteria.

Paragraph writing



My Reflection
I am learning to write paragraph.  I found this easy because I was writing about my weekend but it was tricky trying to decide where to put fullstops and when to put writing in the next box.  My next step is to start using paragraphs in my writing.

Using a glossary, index and table of contents



My Reflection

I have been learning to use a glossary, index and table of contents to get information.

I used the information of the actual book and skimming and scanning in the book to gather information and put them in my own words to help me.

I found this interesting because I learnt about the universe and how it works and all about the planets.

My next step is to put more information in the  work sheet and look at the glossary, index and the contents to get more ideas.

Dear diary, Term 2, Week 3

Dear diary,

Last week we did sign language with Casey,  she taught us how to do sign language.   I learnt how to say my name in sign! So you have to get your two bottom fingers of your hands and stick them together  then put your index finger on the left side of your thumb,  then  put three fingers on the palm of your  hand and that's my name.
