My Room 5 Reflection

My Room 5 Reflection

Art - What I liked about this year was how I learnt about different kinds of artists and more artistic skills. I learnt how to enlarge a piece of art by using a grid. I learnt about a Friedrich Vordemberge Gildewart painting. I also learnt how to make an african animal silhouette. First I had to blend  the colours red, orange and yellow for an african kind of background. I then traced my animal which was an elephant onto my paper and painted the inside black.

Topic - I also liked our topic this year which was about war. I learnt what Hitler and his army did to the jews, I learnt about Anne Frank and her diary and much more history.

Production - This year was our first ever production and I enjoyed it a lot because I starred as the Goddess of the night Hine Nui I Te Po. Our school had to practise and practise, then we performed in front of the Tamaki Primary juniors. After that morning we had two more nights to prepare in action. We sang at the end, and the audience gave us a clap.

Interclass Sports - During lunch classes 5,7,6, and 9 would versus each other. The intermediate classes 6 and 9 would versus each other and the years 6 and 5 classes 5 and 7 would versus each other.  We had sports such as netball, soccer, cricket, hockey, and much more. Whenever a sport had finished then the winning classroom would get a shield.

My Netbook Reflection By Fine

Netbook Reflection 2013


How has having a netbook connected to the internet helped my learning this year?



Can you tell us about something you have discovered and learnt by yourself this year?
This year I have learnt how to create a prezi by myself. A prezi is a site where you can put down steps on how to complete something for example instructions on how                             to make a sandwich easy as that. Once I had finished I shared it onto my blog by embedding a code. Then I wrote an interpretation on what a prezi is and how i created it. I learnt how to create a prezi at home during the holidays, because continuing school work on the holidays will help you improve with getting to the national standard.


What special thing have you learnt from your teacher this year?
My teacher Miss Paton showed me how to create a floorplan of our ideal classroom using the website floorplanner. This website helps people who are wanting to renovate or decorate their room or house. Floorplanner has a lot of objects that you can choose to have inside your room for example couches, chairs and much more. There is a place at the top of the site letting you have the option of choosing your room to be 2D or 3D. You can create your room with a birds eye view. Using a bird’s eye view helped me by seeing where all the objects are. After I had finished my floorplan Miss Paton printed it out and put it on our classroom wall. Something I liked about floorplan is there are variety of colours and options of furniture you can choose. When visitors come inside Room 5 they can see my floorplan and also other classmates floorplans. First we had made a draft on paper making sure we knew what we wanted in our ideal classroom.


What have you learnt from someone outside of your classroom this year
This year I showed my brother Leopote a website called Sumdog. Sumdog helps your learning with Maths. He has increased his learning with Maths since the last time he had gone on Sumdog or had completed a maths activity. Sumdog is a virtual site where you can have your own avatar.


How have you helped other kids learn this year?
This year I helped a few of Room 5’s  year 5 classmates. I helped them create a blog post. A blog post is when one of our students put one of their pieces of work on display to show the whole world. A blog post would go on their individual blog to showcase to the world. You can see which countries have showcased your work by looking at the top of my blog or on the side.
