Hello and welcome back. This week in reading our goal was to Use knowledge from text to combine with new ideas (own and others) to come up with new thinking, and make connections between other texts and general knowledge to expand meaning and pose questions, using more sophisticated texts. We were asked to create a DLO on fake and real news. Here is the poster I made:
Have you ever come across fake news?
I am a student at St Francis of Assisi Catholic School. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Online Dance Class
Hello and welcome back. Today I am going to be telling you about my online dance class. Usually I attend 7 dance classes every week. While we are in lock down my dance school have been providing online dance classes. It's great that I still get to dance and see my friends.
10 minutes before my dance class I go onto zoom and enter the class details. Once everyone is in the class we do a quick warm up and then learn some of our exam routines. I don't mind dancing this way but I don't want to do it forever because I like seeing my friends in person. However Mum prefers it because she doesn't have to drop me off and pick me up.
Do you do any after school activities online?
This Morning I was outside practising my dances before I went to class. Our teachers set us homework tasks on an app called Movitae. They film themselves doing the dance, then we learn it and video ourselves doing it. Then the teacher can comment on it and give us feedback.

Today I'm going to be telling you about a rock hunt that is happening in my neighborhood at the moment. Yesterday I went out with my mum to look for some rocks.
Here are the clues and places I found them.
1 - I’m on Te Rito street and sitting below
a lollipop that’s exactly 4 decades old.
ANSWER: We found the first rock
under a 40 speed sign. | |
2 - I’m in Ruapani Street but I’m feeling the
opposite of full.
ANSWER: We found the second rock in the
middle of the only empty section on Ruapani Street | |
3 - If you head north you’ll see me with my
clubs having a whack
ANSWER: The third rock was beside the
golf course. | |
4 - I’m in a road made of Tyres but I wish
my “neigh”bours would stop horsing around
ANSWER: This one was a bit tricky but
Mum said that "Dunlops" is a brand of tyres so we headed to Dunlops Road where we found a horse paddock! | |
5 - If you “STOP” and look around you may
see me on the ground.
ANSWER: The fifth rock was easy as I
knew where there was a STOP sign. | |
6 - There is no roads where I sit, my best
friends are the ducks and pukekos
ANSWER: We walked around the track
beside the lake and found the sixth rock | |
7 - if you headed south you would find me
looking at (80+40-3) Metahau street.
ANSWER: I knew that 80+40-3 = 117
and we found the rock across the road from number 117 Metahau Street | |
8 - if you were a goat and I were a troll I’d
surely gobble you up, this is where I live.
ANSWER: The last clue was easy as I
knew to look for a bridge. We found the eighth rock there! |

Cluedo
Hello and welcome back. Today i'm going to be telling you about my favourite board game Cluedo.
Why I like it?
You have to figure out who killed the person. You get to be a dectective. You have to move through rooms and get clues of who it was, where it happened and what they used.
Why I recommend it?
I like it becuase it as a game that everyone can play. It is fun and you have to be good at keeping secrets to play. It's lots of fun.
