TOKU KORERO NA EMMA

MY GOALS

THIS IS ME!!!!

1. To improve written work.
2. To improve my fractions in maths.

Hello, my name is Emma.  I go to Parklands School in Motueka.

My goals are to improve my written work.  My presentation, paragraphing, and punctuation all need to improve.

My other goal is to improve my fractions in maths. I think I am all right at them,  I'd just like to get better at them.

E-XCELLENT!

M-AGNIFICANT!!

M-IRACULOUS!!!

A-WESOME!!!!

(THAT SPELLS EMMA IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHAT AN ACROSTIC POEM IS)

Great start Emma.  Now for your camp entry  BW

OUR FANTASTIC CAMP!!!!!

On Tuesday 12th March Room 4 left for camp.  Here are the reasons we go to camp:

1. New experiences
2. For fun
3. Confidence
4. Get on better with other people

My favourite activity was everything!!!! If I had to pick one it would have to be the rafting. We had to make a raft and then see if all our team would fit on the raft.  Our one went all the way down the river and back.

I want to also thank the parents that gave up their jobs to come and help. Also a HUGE thank you to Mr B for doing this for us!

This is me while we did bivouacs.
