Last week my class teamed up with another class to do a CIP (Community Impact Project) where we had a budget of only two dollars and we had to make a huge meal for only your group, my and I group decided to do fruit kababs, so we went on countdown's website and we looked for a whole bunch of fruit and apple juice.
After a few weeks of working and planning everything for the big meal and the menu, after finishing everything. We finally got to go do our shopping we arrived at the store and it was a mess once we got into the store all you could see is kids spreading around looking for things, I bet the teachers were very stressed but we managed to get everyone to school safe and sound. After coming back to school and settling down we got told what to do and we then went off to our group and grabbed our ingredients and tools, after rustling and hustling we finished our fruit kebabs and then we pulled in the two big tables and we all placed our food onto the tables and we got into a half circle and did a prayer.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Dimic math reflection
In dimic math we got to learn a whole new bunch of stuff, we learned how to use a chart that looks like this.
The first time our teacher showed us the graph I was really confused because it looked like something only scientists would use to collect data, another thing we learned was collecting data with charts it was a fun and I'd say it's an easier way to collect data. Our teacher would put people into groups and she would see how well we worked together, if she saw a group that worked well and they were getting along nicely she would keep that group as it is but if the other groups weren't too good she would swap people, which I thought was a good idea because it gives other people a chance to work with others, and see how they learn because you can pick up a few things from it as well. I learnt a lot of new skills that can help me in the future with my maths and I would really like to use it next time. My group used a lot of strategies that I forgot most of them, but the groups I worked in had all these cool strategies and I thought it was cool and kinda interesting because I could see how other people work out problems, and equations. My group this week had a task and it was to see which person had more medicine I have to admit it was kinda the hardest one we have done so far, it took us about three or four tries to get it right but I didn't care about how much times we had to do it because I knew it was helping us learn.

I really want to know how to code and how to use a 3D printer as well as a few more tech things.
Reading task
For reading me and my group have been reading a book called the bone tiki, it is a very interesting book and I do recommend it if you like reading
Summary of the story:
This is a book based in two worlds, the real world and the world of Maori legends.

Skills I have displayed

I listen to understand people’s ideas and opinions:
I understand people’s idea’s and their opinions by understanding and trying to understanding what they mean, and I won’t be angry at them because that is their opinion, I won’t shut down their idea because there idea could have been very useful.
I share my ideas and point of view with different people:
I like to share my thoughts and ideas with people instead of staying quiet, and not doing anything because who knows my idea or point of view could be very helpful and useful.
I complete my work in the time I’m given:
I can always finish my work with the time I am given, I am able to do this because I don’t talk or muck around with people and I do not ignore my work,I am always focused on my work and not focused on trying to be silly and muck around.
I can think creatively :
I am able to think creatively by standing out and being kinda bold with my work, I use strong and complex words within my writing to make it interesting and not boring, I like to show teachers my work and ask what I can improve.
I can be trusted to use my device for the task I am meant to be doing:
I am very trustworthy with my device because I never go on sites I am not allowed on, I am on task and not going on games while I have been assigned work to do, I don’t go on inappropriate sites or watch videos during class.
