Reflection of Learning

Term three

Basic facts

I have been doing a mixed basic facts sheet everyday.
My goal for this term was to achieve 50 out of 100.  My best score last term was 24/100.
This term my average is 40!  What a huge improvement.  I feel proud of my success.  I have made another bar graph to track my progress.
I am getting more right because I have been learning multiplication.
My goal for term four is 100%

Tech

I have been sewing.  I have made a pin cushion and a screen printed cushion.
My sewing skills have improved greatly since last year.
I have enjoyed sewing. Its fun.
I am not sure what my goal is for woodwork in term four.

Reading 

I have taken more control of my reading this term.
I was unhappy reading Sunshine Books because they are for little kids.
We went to Nga Manawa and asked Mrs Costello to help us pick some appropriate books.
When we start a new book Abi reads the whole book to me an we discuss it.  Then everyday I read three or four pages to Abi and I independently write three sentences about what I have read.  After I have typed this up in my literacy folder I can watch a video related to the book.
I have read The Day the Crayons Quit, Indianna Jones Indy's Adventures and Splat the Cat.
I feel good about doing literacy like this.
My goal for term four is

Transition to High School

Every second Tuesday I have been to Grey High with Mrs Hooker.  I have learned about TWK.
Its been fun.
I enjoyed going to the special olympics basketball tournament and playing in the Grey High team.
I am looking forward to more high school visits next term
