Speech - oral about my dog

 My dog's name is East, and he is a roll bulldog. East is so cute and funny, because when we play music, he sings along to them like he is howling in a funny way and that is why I love my dog. He is a very very old dog. East is the best dog and he has a brother named Cairo, but they don’t get along very much and that is why East lives with me and my dad and his brother lives with my mum. He sometimes gets into trouble but he is okay and when we are gone to school he is waiting on the couch for us because he is lonely but he is a very happy dog and he likes to sleep a lot and he likes to play with me and my sisters.

Maths

This is my maths work that me and my group did and they are Nadia, Roman, Aaron and we finished all of the work that miss stone wanted and we just had to count them and on the other one we had to do the old numbers and the non old numbers and it was a little bit hard because we didn't know what to do and then when we worked together then we got it all done.

 

The Deca Tree

 Today room 4 learnt about the Deca tree and Miss Stone put all of us into 3 or 4 groups and in our groups there was one person that did the writing and the other two or three did the talking and we didn’t know that question really do so we asked Miss Stone for help and she helped us and now we knew how to start. And after that Miss got one group to stand up and tell then others what they got and after they shared their ideas we finished and then we just talked and walked to tech because we ended maths.

Marshmallow Challenge

 Today we had a marshmallow challenge. We had to see who could build the biggest tower out of spaghetti, string and tape. I was in a group with Nadia, Aye and Jane. We stuck the spaghetti together with the tape and had some at the sides. Our tower was 60cm which was the tallest so we won the challenge. We won because we worked well as a team, we all had a job and mine was to cut lots of tape to put around the tower. We all listened to each other and shared our ideas. We had a great time!

All about me

I am the third oldest child in my family. My three favourite colours are purple, green, and black. I like being a year 8 because we show year 7’s and the little kids how do the right thing. Netball is one of the games that I love to play! I love it when there is a netball game on because we get to work together and have a good game.
