Week 6 Term 1

It has been another "Super" week. I had French on Thursday and we learn't how to spell our name and introduce ourselves. I am really enjoying it and I think everyone else is too. My favorite part that lesson was when we spelled out the  alphabet. Most of the letters sound quite similar but some sound very unique. We also had Softball on Tuesday and we won again 18-2, I was in the team and got two home runs. Softball was probably my highlight of the week because you have to run fast to get home if you don't want to get out and when you are fielding you can catch people out. I was a "short stop", that means I was one of the three people inside the diamond. The pitcher and another short stop.

Tech Arts is another thing I look forward too every Tuesday and Friday. At the moment we are making bags with handles, a inside pocket, a design on the outside and Velcro to hold things in on the top of the bag. On Tuesday we did a water safety activity in our school pool with three swim waipa instructors. It was fun when I was in the boat and also when we suba dived off. We learn't to wear life jackets when we are on boats, paddle boards, jet skis and on rocks. We also learn't to huddle together so you do not get cold.                                  

I had Football trials at school yesterday and I am going back on Tuesday for more. On Wednesday I finished my Waitangi Treaty explanation and I think mine was very good and I described it very well. We have Student Led Conferences coming up and we have been writing a report about ourselves and then explain how we are going at school. On Friday lunchtimes now I have an extra Alto Saxophone lesson because we are still learning how to play it. I think that I enjoy that more than my lesson on Tuesday's because I have actually learn't things that help me.
