term+2

19/5/10 This term so far I am going well. I think it has been a bit more fun and creative. I am always excited to come to school. In inquiy we are learning about aboriginals. We have been doing some aboriginal dot paintings. I painted lots of animals slithering, hopping and walking to a watering hole. We have also made a class timeline with important dates in aboriginal history.

26/5/10 In reading this semester I have really enjoyed reading my book. I have created a reading goal for me to acheive. It is to stop skipping over words that I dont understand or cant read. I have not been acheiving this goal so I need to start to try. I have improved on predicting because I know what langauge to use. I have also improved connecting the text to real life experiences!

This term I have not really enjoyed writing. I have been a bit frustrated because two of my friends want to be parteners to write a peice together. I think I can overcome this by talking to them and saying what I feel. I have writen some acrostic poems about Aboriginals but I still need to publish them.I have put three of them in the news letter. I am also writing an exposition and a procedural text. I have improved on developing my chatacters by explaining what their personality is instead of just explaining how they look. I still need to work on this though.

In numeracy I feel that it has been really fun. We have done really diffeent things like when we did the mesuring activity. We had to measure different peices to make a jacket or a peice of clothing out of news paper. Our model was Darcy. I really need to work on my times tables so it will be easyer to work out other things in maths.
