A narrative I wrote.

The dry ground crunched under Jesse’s foot. He glanced to the left as he was walking home.

Then when his mum came out she saw the ground cracking so she ran into the house because she might fall into one of the cracks.

When dad was coming from the town, the road was cracking then all the towers fell into the crack when Superman, Hulk, Captain America , Ironman,  Spiderman, Batman, Green lantern came to save the city.

Last of all when they came they fixed all of the cracks then they all disappeared straight away because they had a different city to save.

Softball lesson

First thing this morning we went to our own fantastic softball lesson with our teacher and we had to line up outside our classroom.We were so happy to go to our own softball lesson with our Teacher.

Then Mrs Tofa got us in to our own 2 softball groups. We were excited to get our gloves and to use the bat.

Our group started with fielding and we got the other team out by catching the ball when they hit it.

Later it was our turn to have a go at batting the ball and it was so fantastic. I was so happy and we were cheering for our team then "bang" when Mafoa hit the ball.When the ball was coming he smashed it away. We felt safe on the chair because the ball could not hit us.

Last of all Mrs Tofa said  to came and sit on the ground because there were some things we had to discuss about our lesson. Then we talked about how to hit the ball and identify where the bases are because some people did not know the bases were.

My Reflections on Netbooks

Hi, My name is Taki I am a year 5 student and Glenbrae School and I am in Room 9. My teacher is Mr. D. Nath.

This year was an exciting year for me because I started using a chromebook.  I was fascinated by the thought of doing so many cool things on my chromebook but it took me some time to really start using it effectively. There were so many things to learn and I tried my best to learn as much as I could from my teacher, whanau and friends.

These are my reflections on what I did.

The things that I have learnt from my teacher was how to use the netbook, I learnt a few things about cyber safety, accessing the class site and how to blog my work. The things that I learnt by myself was how to improve my typing skills and the keyboard shortcuts.

I have learnt how to screenshot my work and how to change my password. The things I have learnt from people outside of school is how to hack into other peoples users.

I  am able to think about the topics that I am going to research and write questions using using google docs and I am able to post onto my own blog although I found it difficult at first. I am also able to read more online books, stories and articles while looking for information , deciding which sites are safe for me to access and use information from, sharing my learning on my blog and also the class blog.
