Today I am choosing what my goal is for my writing and I chose spelling rubric 5 (I spell the majority of essential list words correctly  I spell some difficult words correctly using my knowledge of spelling patters and sounds)

For everyone of you guys who are teaching….the Juniors tend to “suck up” all my energy in the period that I spend with them…in a NICE way (I am sure you understand!!!) They truly keep me on my toes, and make me give my 5 cents -worth back to the school every minute. They each assume I am only there for them, and want their questions answered immediately…even if I am already busy assisting someone else. They are super excited, to have my individual attention most of the time, and the coolest thing is, waiting for them after morning tea or lunch, and they come running up to class with all of that exuberence….READY 2 LEARN..

Unlike the seniors, no running to class…a senior  will first listen to the video of me teaching the day’s topic, and then only ask for support, if they can’t figure it out on their own, and after having a korero with their classmates.These moment I treasure like gold nuggets, to see how they support each other, I find myself “eavesdropping” just to make sure that the “correct” information is shared, and that the person who asked the question, understands the solution/or the help.

They (the seniors) support you (the teacher) in whatever you want to try, new teaching ideas, new ways of learning, and they will give you valued feedback.  As I often tell my seniors:  “see this is why I teach, I learn something new from you guys, every day”.

As a teacher it is so important for me, to find a few minutes a day, where I talk to each of my seniors, making eye contact to see how they are and how they are with the new learning for the day. So, to have my year 13’s being excited about sharing their learning through making videos, were absolutely “mind-blowing-ly” COOL.  What they did, each of them chose a different part of the topic for the external, then they made videos of them talking through all the different examples.  They then shared it with each other and me, sharing their learning with all of us. They were so excited to plan, make the videos and then to share it with each other, and to compliment each other on it.
I am so blessed to be a teacher, and to have the opportunity to learn, create and share with my students.

this is my story of fortnite there are 6 gamemode the names are solo,squads,duo,playground,soaring 50’s and disco domination a match goes up to 100 players in a match in. Disco domination you have to capture dance floors and there are two team with 50 players on squads there are 4 players in the same team solos are when you are by yourself. When you do duos you are with 2 people and soaring 50’s are another 2 teams of 50 you can have contrails,pickaxes,skins and back blings. in squads and duos when you get all of your 100 health goes down all the way you get knocked but in solos you get eliminated. in soaring 50’s when you jump off plat forms and dive on the start of the game you start on a island and. then you get on a bus and go to the battle field A.K.A the fotnite island when you get on the fortnite island you fight for a victory royale.

Yesterday we went down to the boat ramp and participated in Wakama. Fonz, Ezra, Ethan, Izaiah and I went down first to go help put the Waka in the water. The guys that were there were Rob and Ropata. After they introduced themselves we put the Waka in the water. The rest of the class came down to help us. We went to Maikukus cave A lady called Sharee told us about her and her cave. My WALT was to steer the Waka. I did well in steering the Waka. I think I can do better in participating a bit more.
