Key Competency - Managing Self

Talofa Bloggers

Today our class is focusing on our Key Competencies. Our aim was to stay on task and see how much progress we make for reading and writing in one morning block. This should set the standard for how much work we complete each time we have literacy.

Our two learning intentions were:

WALT: 1. Show how much progress we can make in one literacy session

2. Articulate what we are learning about.

Here is my reading and writing work I completed today

WALT - capture our audiences attention - persuasive writing

   

WALT -   Use prior knowledge, along with information in the text, to interpret abstract ideas. 

Kawau Island

Walt: summarise a week long experience into a recount.Swimming, Playing sports and going Kayaking, yeah i'm Talking about the Year 6’s going to Kawau island. The year 6 students from Pt England school went to Camp bentzon at Kawau Island. Let me tell you all about it. I was nervous because sailing was our first activity. Peter was our Instructor and also the man that runs the whole camp. He was talking about the instructions. Me, Vinolia, Chris, wesley and Hosea got picked to go solo and Talita and Htethtet went together. Me and Vinolia wanted to go together but peter said no. After Chris Demonstrated sailing for us we hopped in our Boats and went.Concourse was amazing because I conquered my fears. My Hand and Legs were shaking really hard. It was my second Favourite because I did different kinds of obstacles like walking on 1 rope with a harness.Kayaking was my 3rd favourite Activity because we went 3 miles from Camp Bentzon to the other Side. I wanted to stop but I had to keep going. I Fell in the middle of our kayaking trip and It was really hard to swim because instead of me going forwards I went backwards.The year 6 camp was So FUN and I  just wish I could go again. I really enjoyed spending time with everyone that was there.   This is my writing about going to Kawau. I learnt how to Write Recounts about where or what i have been doing. I wished that i could go Again.
