Aviation Museum

the aviation museum was super fun when we first got there we got to look at a plane that was used in world war 2 and could carry torpedos. the next plane we saw was yellow and could seat 2 people it was made of a light fabric so it could fly but if a bird hit the plane it would make a hole. we saw a big yellow plane and also a very large plane that we could go inside and look around. then we went and had a look at the helicopter we ask lots of questions and we got to go inside and see the equipment that they use to help people we also got to see the night vision goggles and look through the them and see what it looked like. I really enjoyed it.

Geometry Reflection May 2021 Danielle Simmons

My strengths There are two things that I am strong in. They were enlarging and drawing the reflection of the shape. The reason why I think that is because I found it easy to get through and I got all of them right. And the reason why I got better was because I was asking questions and understanding what the teacher was saying. Goals My geometry goals after the first test were naming 3d shapes and then on the 2nd test i got all of them right. And on the second test I still need to work on lines of symmetry. What helped me What I think helped me was the workshop because for the last 3 weeks we picked watch workshop we wanted to go to and explained it to us and helped us. I also think the videos that are on the website because it explained all the different ways to work it out. Preparing I prepared myself by looking at my old test and seeing what I need to work on. I also did lots of workshops to help me with it so I can improve on the next test. What the teachers did well in, and what they need to work on I think the teachers did well in challenging me, and that helped me with my learning. And i think the teachers need to work on going to students that are struggling and help them with it. Conclusion Now you know my strengths and what I need to work on, weaknesses and feedback are.

Danielle Weekly Reflection Week 8

 My Weekly Reflection for Week 8


What I learned this week was: I learned that 


 In Maths was how to we learned adding and subtracting and places value.


In Spelling how to spell long I sounds and finding out words that have the long I sound.


Thinking about our value of responsibility, this is how I’ve been responsible this week.  I have been looking after my stuff and i always listens to the teacher on the mat and looking after people at ever time.


My next steps are to work harder and push myself also do more mathletics and i think i am doing good on stepweb.


My person who I think has been the most responsible this week is Holly because she gets here work done and also ways listens.

Fin we will go into the well said, Molly. 


The 2 twins jumped into the well, a magic well, they soon arrived at an underwater city, here in the city was a school, there was a wise kunekune he had glasses and a bowtie they need to get out of class, they can’t get out of class because the wise kunekune will not let them pass the test. The bell when to go to lunch rang! The pig gave them a spicy taco they did not eat the spicy taco, the pig went off to his lunch break. The pig yelled “YOU ARE NOT GETTING OUT OF CLASS” the twins were obviously lost soon the footy coach came in with a ball he siad “all right class ready for football?”  The twins sighed after a little wily of playing football the football coach weat to get some more pe gear they looked around the classroom then they round another well and see’s that it is elating and that they need a key to open the well and get back home so they started to search all around the class, they looked all around the class accept the pigs secret box, molly said “should we open it? Polly said “yes” so they opened the box, “there’s the key let’s get out of here befor the football coach comes back” polly whispered the twins ran as fast  as they could huffing and padding they got the well and put the key and the
