Play Make Create term 4 week 1
On Friday, we did Play Make Create. This is where the teacher reads you a story and you discuss the
message in the story. Then you create something based on the message and also do a piece of writing.
You can use materials or make a digital creation. This week Mrs Fletcher
Read the book: I am peace. It was about what it feels like when you worry two much and how to stop
it and feel better.
I chose to make a tree and a fidget toy.

Cross Country
Thanks to Covid we could only have
Ohaeawai kids in our cross country this year. I came 9th in my year group.

We had to do a handwriting sample this week. My handwriting is not that good but it’s way better than the start of the year.
3D Clock
Yesterday, for maths we had to read a step by step procedure for making a 3D clock. It was very tricky. We had to measure in centimetres to make equilateral triangles, measure the angles with a protractor to check they were 60 degrees, make a clock face and arrows and tie it all together with string. I was glad when I finished. The clock hands were the hardest part. Here is a picture of my clock.
