Reading term 2 In reading this week I read the book 'Wet' on the reading eggspress app. I did not use the read-back function. Something I learned that the mangroves tree is the only salt water tree I also learned that wetlands are like giant sponges. When rivers overflow, wetlands store all the excess water and stop flooding. I passed all of the comprehension tests . I needed to re-read 6 chapters to pass

In Inquiry we made a diorama to show what learned about the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi at Clive. I assessed my diorama as a 4 because I got all of the objects in the right places. To improve I need to add more facts.

On Wednesday the 22nd of Feb 2017 Room 6 and some parents went on a Waka at Clive River . First we had a talk about some of the Maori war stuff and weaponry . Second we put our life jackets on then we got onto the waka and had a practice of the calls then we were away . After that the current was very strong even my strong arm was getting tired . Then we went under and the calls echoed through the bridge . After we had gone under and out a bit then we stopped to give our arms a rest . Later we started going for about 5 minutes then the small boats turned us around and me and Vincent switched sides . Next we had a go of paddling backwards we didn't get that far back so we started to go back . We went back under the bridge and back to sheor then got off the waka and took our life jackets . Then we ran to the cars and drove back my group got back first . The waka trip was amazing I’m sure all our class enjoyed it !!!!

In writing we are learning to write recounts
 Something I did well was order words
