For the last weeks we’ve been doing softball for the action stations. I thought it was pretty cool. I learnt some new games and some new techniques.  I enjoyed it because it was very active and cool. I found throwing the ball challenging because my arms weren’t as strong as the others but it was okay but my favorite part was the games and challenges i got to play. If i was able to play again i probably wouldn’t because of the rough players.

Today and yesterday, Thursday the 10th, we went to see harold. We went into the life education van. We saw the teacher, Jo. She was very nice and she showed us harold. After that we got to see the inside of the body. We saw the heart, lungs, the blood flow, and the veins. We also learnt about the basic needs, such as food, exercise, water, shelter, sleep and washing your body. We learnt that the heart is the same size as your hand when it is closed. The other thing we learnt is that your left lung is smaller than your right because the heart needs to fit and if we didn’t have a skeleton then we would just be a blob.

Today we had an action station.

Something i liked was when we got to play softball and we all were able to have fun.

Something I liked was when we had to do the throwing and catching because someone accidentally hit me with the ball and gave me a bruise.

Something i learnt was catching and throwing better.

Something i didn’t understand was the 3 ball down game when we had to throw three balls and at the last throw we run on all the bases. But it was still fun.

This term we have been doing persuasive writing. The things I liked was when we got to persuade the reader and entertain them. The part I disliked was when he had to write entire paragraphs and when my fingers started to hurt. I learnt some new words and compost words as well. Something I didn’t understand was the long words.

This week we started a new reading program. I liked the part where I read new words. I did not like the part where we had to write everything down. I learnt lots of new words. I did not understand the part where some of the sentences didn’t make sense.

Their favorite part was the games.

Their least favorite part was learning about the beach. They didn’t understand the 3 r’s. They learnt about Life Saving

This week I have learnt how to get better at writing

I really enjoyed the part where I got to sound out the words.

I did not understand the part when most of the words didn’t look right.

I think this will help me get better at writing. I will write everyday at home to improve my writing.
