Last day with Issy.

Today was our last day with our dancing coach Issy. For the past few weeks were leant a really superb dance. Straight after morning tea we had to do mindfulness, then we had to go to the hall. When we were in the hall we learnt another dance. We mixed some of the dances that we did in the past few weeks to the dance that we did today. We got split into groups of 1, 2 and 3. I was in one with my friend Laina. Group three had to dance first then group one then group two. After that the people that Issy chose to stay standing was Sale, Laina, Nastazia and Tama. The two best that did it very well got a lollipop and the two people were Sale and Nastazia. After all that fun we had to go back to class but before we did we got a certificate and we could go to her teaching lessons in papitoe. I really enjoyed the weeks that I spent with Issy.

Basic facts prototec timed.

Today I got 50% on stage 7 prototec timed. I still need to work on my divisions and my time tables. By next week I hope I could get 60% or more and I will need to practice more and more until I can get a higher score.

Three sticks.

After lunch my class and I went outside to play three sticks. We had to get into groups of three. I was with my two friends Nastazia and Laina. First we layed out the sticks, then we took turns jumping in between the sticks. After that we moved the sticks further and futher. I really enjoyed playing three sticks.

Food art on a plate.

Today my class and I made food art on a plate. I made a banana with legs. I used play dough to make my banana. My colours were yellow and green, I used green for the legs and feet and the yellow to make the banana. I watched my friend draw her food art on a plate and I also watched her make it. Everyone did a different food art on a plate. I really enjoyed making it. I thought this was very suitable for this art. I hope next time we can make a similar thing but different.
