My first Literature Circle meeting!!!


Hi everyone,welcome back to my blog๐Ÿ’ƒ.Hope you enjoyed reading my other post about GEG๐Ÿ˜.So as you guys see the title๐Ÿ‘ฏMatilda!Matilda is a really joyful book to read plus it's written by Roald Dahl a really famous book writer.In LH6 we all have these cool literature circles where we read a book with our teacher and our team who is reading the same book as us.I enjoyed a lot but was a bit nervous to.Well,in these L.C we have roles to complete we have the Discussion Director who mostly leads the meeting and asks questions about the book,there is a Word Master who picks a word from the book and writes the meaning of the word and explain what it means they also draw it,there is a Summariser too who tells us what has happened so far in the book in their own words,there is a Connector too who makes connections about things that happens in the story with another book their own life and some connections about the world,there is also a Passage Picker is a someone who picks a paragraph then explains a little bit more about it and lastly there is a illustrator who draws what has happened in the story in the story.๐Ÿ˜ช๐Ÿ˜ช.So I was the discussion director in my group I asked three questions from the group and they answered it.They also shared their own learning to.I had bad throat so I could not speak nicely.But still my group still enjoyed and thanked me.I had a lot fun looking forward for the next meeting.What I really liked about the meeting was that at the end everyone got to thank someone they liked throughout the meeting.I thanked everyone because everyone had a really awesome part to play in the meeting it was lovely.

GEG!!!


Hi guys,welcome back to my blog๐Ÿ˜….So today,I just want to get started with today's blog because this blog post is going to one of my most favourite and most remarkable blog posts every done in the history.You will get to know why soon.Well GEG is an event held for kids and adults,GEG is related to google what you basically need to do is that you need to prepare a workshop about google app that you know a lot about then sign up for GEG and people will come and attend your workshop and learn about that google app.Well,that's what me and my friend did. Komal and myself did a presentation  about this really fun app called Prezi!!We enjoyed a lot exploring this new app as well as the people who came to our workshop.There were three sessions our workshop was in session two.We started the day with a grand opening from the #Oresome Young Ocean Explores!!They told us about their adventures they have done in the ocean it was fantastic hearing about them!!
After that,to start the day some learners from LH6 including me did a our welcome song Te Arhoa it was a bit scary but we still enjoyed.Soon,it was time to go to your first workshop! I decided to go to this cool workshop called Awesome animations.It looked it was really a really cool workshop so I decided to go to it.Well,they taught us how you can animate on google slides.What I really liked about them was that they were not shy,they spoke clearly and they were always around to help us.I enjoyed a lot there.Now it was time to eat!
Once we had finished eating we quickly rushed to our workshop to get ready.I was really nervous,soon people from other schools had started rushing towards our workshop ahhhhhhhh!! really scary.But still we manged.So we started our workshop!!!!
 We started off by introducing ourselves then slowly slowly started using the app but........ Technology was not supporting us that day some people could not get on it and we wasted most of our time on getting on.When they started using the app time was up! So I thought they did not enjoy.First I felt a really upset but then I thought that Everyday is not a good day but   there is something good in everyday
So I tried my best and the result is in front of me and you.But I enjoyed.After that,it was time for session three!! So I decided to go to Build your wild self! I have used that app before but still that time I had not explored that app a lot,so I got to explore it at the workshop.
Lastly,it was time to end the day so we all gathered all up and the GEG team gave out special awards.Like One free chrome book,chrome cast,chrome book cases and other cool things.Then some learners from LH6 came up and sang E toru na mai.The day was FAB!!
The end

Speech writing!

               Speech Writing

Hi everyone,welcome back to my blog.Hope you had a great time reading my other post about curious club.If you have not read that then go read it right now!๐Ÿ˜.So as you guys can see the title of my blog Speech Writing❤.Today was a fine day because it was raining outside really rapidly,that's why Ormiston Primary School did not get any fresh air today. But the best part of my day in LH6 was speech writing!!๐Ÿ‘ฅ.Yes In LH6 the learners are working on speech writing everyone's speech is on climate change๐Ÿ˜Š.So I worked on my speech and it was fantastic working on my speech.Now I will tell you how I was feeling in the start of the lesson,during the lesson and at the end of the lesson and my next steps.
  



In the start of the lesson I was feeling really happy because,I had a passion of carrying on with my speech and I was full of ideas that I would put in my speech.In the start of the lesson I was thinking of putting lots of emotive language so my readers would get a great impact on them.Some words I put in my speech was....guilty,horrified,terrified and extremely I put more than that but just can't remember☺.My other target was to include rhetorical questions so my readers mind would think about all the things that maybe I have not thought about.Today I could not complete that target but I will try to next time.


During the workshop I was feeling really angry because I was looking for some amazing facts about NZ's forests,but whenever I typed in something it just did not give me the right information I needed{ahhhhhhhh}So I kept looking for stuff but still nothing.Then I gave up because I was wasting time,then I just put the information I found I pretty sure it was fine.So I have completed my introduction and my shocking statistics.



    At the end of the workshop I was really relived because I got my exit ticket.The exit ticket was two paragraphs.Because I wasted my time on the facts that's why I could not introduce my charity.But the generous Miss Love said that I have done enough and I  can go to break time.My next steps might be to focus on what I am doing and finish my speech.
