Student-Led Conferences Reflection


Student-Led Conferences Reflection

What happened?
I ran my mum through what I have been doing, learning and need working on. I showed her my online blog and how the whole world can see it and can show Mrs Mills what homework task we are up to. I also showed my mum my online learning journal which I explained is like a normal book learning journal but just online.

What did you like/dislike about it?

I like that we could try and beat our parent in time tables
I liked that there were other kids and parents in the same room as you so it wasn’t just you talking.
I disliked it how it was quiet and how everyone could hear you that was in the room.

What feedback did your whanau give you? 
That I’ve been doing well in all of my subjects

What would you change if you could?
Nothing

Perform (at a Rimu Hui) a dance that you have learnt

On Thursday 21 of March, 5 girls and I went and showed our house our cheer leading dance infront of house hui. We had only been practicing for a few weeks and were still tweaking some of the moves and getting it to perfection. It was our first time infront of a crowd so we were all a bit nervous. It was a success just a few things we had to work on timing was the most thing we have to work on.

Here is a video of us doing our cheer leading

Home work




Care for younger children: Organize a series of games or activities for younger siblings or neighbors or teach them a dance or an instrument.


Today I went to Greeton Pools to help Greenpark do there swimming sports. It was a long day but it was fun watching all the kids swim and having heaps of fun. There was a group of about 10 who went to help from my school. We all got into partners and helped time the kids there was heaps events, there was 10 events and the 10 year 8 even got to participate in the last event. Which was a relay, the year 5 and 6 students got a head start to make it fair but we over take them and we come home winning. Which was cool but we were all pretty nervous that we were going to get beaten but it seemed that the GreenPark students didn't mind.








You can see in this picture the bright green and other color tops that was Tauranga Intermediate helping with the timing









This was the email I sent to the deputy principal of Greenpark school.
