Auckland Islands!

In my EL4 math group we have been doing an activity about the Auckland islands. If you don't know where that is, the Auckland Islands are 290 miles of the South island of New Zealand. There were 10 activities we had to complete. Some were hard and some were easy. (Most of them were hard). The task was for year 8s, year 9s, year 10s and year 11s. I did this task with my friend Sophie who is also in my maths group. Together we completed it and got the questions right.

On each task, there was also a Challenge. Some tasks/challenges involved drawing, creating, reading, researching,writing and much more. Luckily on every slide there was a clue. One clue was a math clue and the other clue was a road clue. The maths clues had an equation but the road clue had some research. On most of the tasks we used math clues. I learnt lot's about the Auckland island and its animals. I also learnt that exponents are the small number that goes above the big number. Overall I really enjoyed this task and I would recommend it for you if you wanted a challenge.

Escape from Kraznir!

Escape from Kraznir

For the past few weeks, my level 3 writing group has been doing an adventure based piece of writing. It is called Escape From Kraznir. Someone called Miss Ransom created a slide presentation all about the obstacles our characters would run into. The slides have options that we can choose to write our chapter about. So far I am up to writing chapter four. 

This writing has been very interesting and fun because I've learnt lots of different ways to construct  sentences. The sentences that I learnt were made up of a main clause, a subordinate clause and a dependent clause. I also enjoyed this because it's fun to share my writing with people.

Here is my first paragraph of Chapter one
