Goal Setting

We do these goals so that we know what we need to work for and we know what we have to try to follow through school and something to know that you have achieved and what we need to keep working on.

Today we had to do set some goals for writing , reading and math. We had to write what our goal for writing goal for math and goal for reading.We just learned that this is what we want in life and what we need to guide us.

At school I am learning about  goal setting and what it‘s going to do for us and how we can use it for example ” we set goals to make sure we  we have something to work for and something that can guide us for life of for the rest of the school year or the school life.

I am learning the importance about goal setting and how these goals  help us focus on what we need to do , Goal setting  teaches us how to be resilient and it teaches us to  dream and inspire others with our courage to keep trying our best.

This is important because we really need to learn this now and then we’ll know this for the rest of our lives.

We are determined to aim high . As our school uniform clearly says “Be Determined Aim High”

In my opinion I think that learning about this stuff like goal setting it’s very nice to know that we have something to look at and follow or keep reading over and over again  until you have mastered all of the things on your goal chart or all your goals,We really need to use this in life so we know where we are at now and where we we want to be at by the end of the year.

 

S-T-O-P

Today we learned about online bullying and that words actually hurt even online.This lesson was about what we should do when someone says something mean and hurtful online and how we don’t respond to them, we ignore their bad behavior and their mean words.

 

Sometimes we get carried away with our emotions and we might say something mean back, Matua Aina told us all some key sentences to remind us of what we can do  in this situation e.g step away,tell a trusted adult , okay  sites first,pause and think online.We then  had the task of making a poster so we could share our messages with others.

I enjoyed how I can make sure that my words are positive , thoughtful and helpful.

Attend Today Success Tomorrow Poster

This phrase,We believe that if you can come to school every day then we’re curtain that you can reach your goals and dreams because if you come to school you can be successful and if you come to school you might get a reward for example we can go on trips or we could be doing sports.  And if we come to school we can achieve our goals.

I personally think that you can  be successful just by coming to school because if we come to school  then  you can finish your work.

I think that if  you follow your dreams and work hard you can achieve your dreams and you can get a reward at the end.

  1. Be who you are and be proud of who you are no matter what people say. 
  2. Come to school everyday and be yourself and dont be who people want you to be
  3. Make your own choices even if its a bad one because mistakes are a part of life

The Samurai

 

One night over dinner, I asked if I could go to a fight. I said that I already knew the way to get there, and she said NO!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I was so frustrated that I ran away to my room and slammed the door behind me. So I started packing a bag and jumped out the window and started running, then I came across a dark, long,tall cave,because I’m a risker so I went in the cave.

The cave was mysterious and dark. I thought there were bats in the cave so I stayed quiet. It finally came to an end,I saw a BIG GATE  Then I noticed that the gate was   closed I thought I was early, until I heard Yelling and cheering  I was antagonized  that I was late 

HERMIONE

My DLO about My costume

Today we dressed up as  our favorite  book character, I went as Hermione Jean Granger  from Harry Potter.

 Me and my friend Royell did Hermione to then I put a photo of my outfit, I used props like a  wand .Then we write about what we know about  our character  for example I wrote about it on my DLO that is on top.

We had 1 week to get ready for this, Some people had to print their book covers. But I didn’t need a book cover  because I already know so much about my character because I had a book about everyone in the movie Harry Potter and Fantastic Beast .
