Reading Authors Purpose

WALT I can evaluate writers’ purposes and consider how they have used structure and language to suit these purposes.

I got up to extended abstract because I completed it and did a good job on it, and i followed the success criteria.

My next step is to set a new goal.

Here is my work

PE fielding and striking

WALT: Apply Striking and Fielding activities in a range of sports and activities.

Link to modelling book on online zone.  

My Strengths

The striking strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were Firm and correct grip on whatever you are batting with. Stronger hand lower down on bat.

The throwing and catching strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were Keep your eye on the ball. Watch the ball all the way into your hands. Watch the ball all the way to its target.

My Next Steps

To improve my striking of a ball I need to Wide base/ Good stance

because I can get more points by hitting it further.

To Improve my catching and fielding I need to Cup your hands or reverse cup as early as possible because I can give the other team less points by catching the ball

The game that I enjoyed the most was rounders because it was a little competiive
but not too much

Leadership in the food forest

Over the last two the year 8's have been working on the food forest because it needed some work.

Group D AKA my group did chop and drop witch is where you cut the plant 2cm long from top to bottom.

I also cut all the unwanted little bushes.Before that we made envelopes and collected the seeds with the year 4's, we collected the seeds because the 4's next year are planting them.We used envelopes so the seeds won't sweat. It was really hot so it got hard at times to cut down things. Here is a photo of the food forest. It was fun because we got to explore the food forest. What we could done next time is to get more seeds in a envelope. We also had to write the date of when we got the seeds and the name of the seed 

Here is a photo of the food forest.

Dance

WALT: Learn to dance with girls and learn different dances.
This shows that we are preparing for formal.
I think I did well for our first dance practice because I was very enthusiastic and I learnt the dance moves really quickly.
The songs are The Waltz and Rock and Roll Reel
Here is a link to the songs and us dancing to them.
My next step is to teach others that need help.

Writing

This term I think I did well on my speech because, I spoke clearly and at a good volume.
This shows that I persuaded mostly everyone to my speech.
If I could do it again I would look up more and speak slower.

Goal 3 for term 4

Next term I could improve on trying my hardest on fitness.

I want this to happen so I can burn off more energy so I am not hyper during class.

This means I will be sweating and puffing because I went 100% on fitness

SDL

Something I have done well this term is finishing most of my SDL.
The reason for this is I pick a good learning buddy.
To finish all of my SDL I could bring my BYOD so I get a device every time.
