Jaxs Fish ‘N’ Chips

Purpose:  Thank You Note

Dear Jax

Thank you for coming to Rangikura School to share your opera show.

My most favourite part was when the salesman that sold potions ripped him off when the elixir was just L&P.  I really liked it when everyone of the actors sung because I have never heard opera in person.   The singers were really funny and entertaining and it was nice to watch them.

I would really like it if you and your actors could come back some day so we can watch your amazing acting and singing.

Yours sincerely 
Turua.

My Venn Diagram

   

This is my Venn diagram.  We did this so we could see the similarities and differences of Tokelau and Fiji fishing.  Then we shared our thoughts of what was different and what was the same.

My Identity Art

This is my identity art work that I made with Whaea Toni.  It shows my culture, where I'm from and who I am.

My Duffy Books

These are my Duffy books that I got from school.  We get these because our school is with Duffy and I like it because I Like to read.  Every year we get free books from the Duffy company, we go to the hall and mostly someone important comes like Cristan Hall.  

She was the one that came today in the hall when we had the Duffy assembly.  When It was finished we came back to our class and we read for a bit.  Then Miss Hills asked if we wanted to get our Duffy books now and we all said yes.  We got them and then we went back to finishing our work off.

How To Weave A Box

What you need:

• Piece of paper
• Scissors
• pen/pencil
• Cello tape
• Ruler                     

                                      

1.  Cut out strips of paper that are 1 cm wide and 30 cm long, measure it with your ruler.

2.  Put 5 strips of paper close to each other about 2 cm apart.

3.  Use the other five strips and put it under and over the other strips.

4.  Push the strips close together until it makes a square in the inside.

5.  Cello tape the base (the middle of it) so it can stay in it’s position.

6.  Fold the outside of the strips over the base.

7.  Cut out 4 more strips of paper that are 24 cm long and 1 cm wide.

8.  Fold one strip into four quarters.

9.  Use that strip to weave it in the four sides and keep it tight enough to keep it’s position.

10.  Cello tape the four corners so the strip stays like it is.

11.  Repeat step 10 and 9 with the other three strips.

12.  Cello tape any strips that are sticking up.

Decimals

  This is what we did on Monday. we did decimals with our teacher Ms Hills and my group (team support) and learned to instead of saying fractions we can say it in decimals.  For example, 10/10 equals 1.0.
