We have done quite a bit of maths over the past couple of weeks and I am learning a lot. Heaps of the stuff that I learnt last year is coming back to me. I really like the elibrary program that I have access to. Because of this I have been able to read a couple of good books ,and I have really enjoyed reading these. We have also been doing some work on commas and where they go. I think that I am quite good with commas but there were some very hard sentences that stumped me. We have started using this reading task program that is one of our reading activitys. One of our tasks was to read a couple of pieces about the holocaust and I learnt a lot. I think that it is descusting how Hitler thought him self and his race were superior to Jews. And I think that it was even worse that he killed them because of his stupid beliefs. I have also finished my sweatshirt in sowing and I believe it looks really cool along side a beanie that I made with my spare material.

Week Five
Finally we have finished testing. We have started to really get into maths and writing. We were all given the task of writing about a wonder of the world. We could chose from the wonders of the ancient, medieval, modern and natural world. I have been writing an explanation about the roman coliseum (a wonder of the medieval world) and I think that I have done quite well so far. ⺞ I think that my writing is already improving. This week I also participated in boating and water safety and this taught me a lot. We learnt how to keep warn in huddles, how to swim safely with a life jacket and how to balance and drop out of a boat. I think that water safety is really important because New Zealand has one of the worlds highest drowning rates. I am also very excited because next week I have my interview for college. I was surprised that it was this early because it only term one. I also did quite well in swimming sports. I placed in backstroke and won nearly every non champ event I went into. Puniu came third place behind Waikato and Wapia.
