Pages 1-32

When I read the part that says that they are going to fight the other play schools it reminds me of the school in real life because in real life things like that really happens when someone from other school’s get smart about another school.

I think that the reason why the author wrote this book it’s because to tell people not to fight.

Mathwhizz Writing

During the last few days room 19 has been going on mathwhizz,mathwhizz is a site that will help other people in there maths not only it will help them in there maths it will help them in there problem solving.

What I have been up to in mathwhizz is trying to put the butterfly's into groups of 5  then after you put the flowers into groups of 5 then you put it in side the jar,to be able to move on to the next question you will need to get the question right if you get the question wrong to many time it will answer it for you and show you the strategies.

Will.i.am

Have you ever heard of the hip hop group named the Black Eyed Peas? Last week was a very interesting week for the Point England kids because Will.i.am (the lead singer of Black Eyed Peas) came to our school.  He came to donate a cheque for the Manaiakalani Education Trust to help  provide the schools with  new computers and ipads for students to work with.

I felt very excited and delighted at the time because a very famous pop star came in to donate a large amount money.

So, I would like to say a big thank you to Will.i.am for your support and your kindness to our trust.   Hopefully in the future we can succeed in what we would like to be.

What My Friends Say About Me?

Picture Of What People Said About Me

Last term room 19 had a big opportunitie to write something good about that person on the piece of paper that we had to stick on our backs, The reason why we did this is that so people can find out something that other people like about them.

One thing I liked about what people said to me is that I am a really funny person to hang around with when it's is playtime or lunch time sometime;s in our class room when our teacher lets us chat for about 5 Min before we do our work.

My other thing I really really enjoyed reading was the one that said your a good leader when our class teacher leaves the class room or when she's late to open the door for us when morning tea's finished or lunch time.

What I had learnt from this is saying something positive about people when you are talking with some one else.
