2019 LEARNING REFLECTIONS

This slide deck is all about my learning in 2019.

Math Strategies

I have been learning some different math strategies to solve  addition and a subtraction.

I have had the class site to help me with my learning and I don't have to ask Whaea Deb what to do because I know.

This is my subtraction video.

This is my addition video

Coopers Beach Camp

My highlight at camp was kayaking down the creek and when you let me launch the kayak on my own and when I fell out of the kayak on purpose.  It was great when you were pushing me down the hill and making me and Arahia dart down the hill on the sleds. I really enjoyed it when you let me go across the tightrope without you holding the rope. Thank-you for watching me on the tramp to see me do a forward flip. I can't believe that you let me do the brooming on the slide. I loved it when you were helping us on the hardest obstacle course on earth.

Check out my slide about my camp experience.

Draft - Duffy Theatre - Magic Bricks

On the holidays Duffy went to his favourite cousins house.But when he arrives he feels sad because Sam is addicted to gaming and Sam would not let Duffy have a turn.So he put on Nana whetu glasses and did the dumpling dance and a in a heart beat he faded into the game.


later he had to pick a skin,So duff picked the one with the mussels, then the dismantler came and the dismantler will destroy anything that looks like bricks because the dismantler is programmed like that.Then the dismantler tried to take apart Duffy.

So Duffy changed his skin. Later Duffy made friends with the dismantler and the dismantler called Duffy Duffy fluffy chicken. The dismantler also needed energy so the dismantler when saw the last hot dog the dismantler ate the last hot dog.

                                                      

5 mins later Sam came in and tried to help and make the word whetu. One second later the dismantler came and tried to mess up the word. but Duffy fluffy chicken hid them and moved as the dismantler moved to hied he brick word whetu.

Soon Duffy fluffy chicken and Sam realised that it was not the glasses dumpling dance that got Duffy fluffy chicken and Sam in the game it was the dumpling dance that got Duffy fluffy chicken and Sam in the game. So Duffy fluffy chicken and Sam did the dumpling dance.
