Week 5 Term 1

This week has been really fun. For maths we have learnt how to add and subtract integers, how to multiply and divide integers, how to solve problems involving integers, and also learn about and use standard form. For writing I have halfway done my Waitangi explanation and I am really stuck. I still don't get it so I still have to do a bit more reading about it because it's due next Friday. Next week we are also starting are student led conference reports about reading, writing, maths, and we have to write about what our goals are and how we will achieve them for each subject. In tech arts we have started making our cell phone holders and I am doing mine a see through fluro yellow/green one. So far I have only drawn the lines and marked up where to bend it and where to cut it. Hopefully I will get it finished week. We had swimming sports on Friday and I was in the year eight 25 meters championship race with five other girls out of the whole school which I think is pretty good. I was also in the relay for the year eight girls with three other people and we were so close to winning against the other house. We were like 10 milliseconds apart. So far we haven't had French but we are definitely having it next week.
