Looking back

End of Term Reflection

My favourite thing this year at school was going on camp and not falling of the paddle board. I chose this because I haven't tried something new in ages.

I am proud of getting in to west maths and going to Hokitika to compete. 

Next years my goal in getting to go to Christchurch and compete in Cantamaths I think this is a great goal because I will push myself to do this.

Acrostic poems 2018 (first post)

Acrostic Poems

WALT: Write an acrostic poem.

A acrostic poem is a poem that the first letter in the sentence spells out whatever your doing it on.

This week I have been learning to write a acrostic poem. At first I thought it would be easy but once I started I found that finding word that started with the right letters was quite hard. After a while I slowly got used to it. In the end I made three poems.
