Welcome Class 5 to our fourth week of the term. We are starting team efforts this week towards our New Zealand competition, creating a ‘perfect New Zealand experience.’ Well done with understanding how to use the Fordham census data, this week you will be using it to create a comparison graph with Horotiu, writing to your New Zealand counterparts and inviting real travel agents in to judge your pitches at the end of term. Exciting! Your New Zealand artwork in the style of Ron Reid has been extremely successful and I hope you all slept well after learning so much grammar and fractions/decimals techniques last week.
Polishing High Five netball skills

Our assessment focus fan helps to analyse our understanding of out texts.

Tom is rightly proud of his Ron Reid style, he will be adding a little colour/tone to it this week.

The soft, water wash style is hard to achieve but Class 5 are doing well.

    I have just finished reading the book Flight From Ledron (bug club)
    The book was good I especially liked it as it was about a young boy rescuing a bird. I would rate rate the book 5/10.
    I have now finished all of my Bug Club books and now would like to have some more,

    Tom, I love your picture! Maybe we could have an art gallery somewhere in school? Well done to all my maths group today, you are making great progress and I am really proud of you all. Keep looking at those prompt sheets at home and come and see me if you want anything explained more.
    Who will get Times Table Master this week?

    Book Review - Dogs of Hinterland - Bugclub
    I really enjoyed this book and it was all about a girl who gets taken to a fortress as a prisoner and its all set in another world.
    I think the adjectives and tension will really help me improve my writing in class.
    I rate this book a 7 ot of 10

    I am reading Kidnap in the carribean and i really like the book because it has loads of suspence. My favourite part at the moment is when the strait As kidnap Lauras uncle Calvin Redfern and Laura and her bestfriend Tarquin try and find him. But they are on a Carribean cruse and it turned out that it was a scam!
    Overall i love this book and would rate it 9/10!

    Flight from Ledron

    I have just finished reading this book on Bug Club and really liked it. I think that the author (Diana Noonan) is a very good writer and it was very enjoyable to read one of her stories. I thought that Amon rescuing the little injured bird was sweet too!

    9 out of 10/4 out of 5 stars

    I have just read the book Awful Auntie. The book is very funny also very interesting. I found it so good I red it nearly the whole time I was at home and I finished it in 2 days! I would recommend this book and all of the David Williams books to everyone between the ages 6 and over!

    I have finished reading the book 'Run'. I liked this book because it is set in the days when the Wizard Of Oz book was released. This book was very interesting as it had two people telling the story. I rate this book 4/5 stars.

    I have just read Curious Cases I thought it was a bit simple, well the first bit was. It was about aliens interviewing us so called eartlings. But I really liked the second part was really good it was about a boy who ate chicken pie for his tea. In the morning his legs were chicken legs!! I give it 7/10
