exposition-proof Blog post

we have been learning to write an exposition. this is the conclusion from mine.

Overall, with the information I have collected, I have come to a conclusion; I believe that J.K Rowling is the better leader. I am guessing right now that you are confused. Why would I pick a normal person over the queen; a born leader. That is my point, she was born into royalty almost not having a choice to be a leader. Everyone would still look up to the queen even if she did something wrong. But J.K had to find her own way in the world and is admired by many. She pushed her way through thick and thin making her resilient. Nearly the same amount of people look up to her as they do the queen; she was just an ordinary person with creative ideas but she turned into one of this generation's best leaders.

The Arts Rotation: Music

I can describe the characteristics of music from songs of a different time and place


Over the past 7 weeks I have been learning to describe the characteristics of music from songs of a different time and place


I can describe these characteristics in a piece of music;



Term 1 Integrated Learning - Leadership

We have been learning all about What makes a good leader.


We identified that good leaders show six main character traits. These are ; show integrity,resilience, be motivational,goal focused,trustworthy and be an active thinker.

The leadership trait that I think I show the most is resilience because I try my hardest and try to never give up.

The leadership trait I would most like to develop is trustworthiness because I am usually late and always losing my things.

Something NEW I have learned about leadership is; what it takes to be a leader.

The SOLO level that I reached during this unit of learning is relational because I can compare and contrast the traits of different leaders.


My next step in learning about leadership is to apply everything that I have learned about leadership to my own leadership roles.

peer mediation-merit- post 3

This week on wednsday,my group (Sasha and I) had peer mediation. 
We had no problems so we kind of just wandered around the junior and senior area. We mostly stayed in the junior area.

I showed resilience by keeping goping on my duty instead of just giving up because we had no problems. I showed active thinking by going into the major trouble spots in the school. My next duty is next week and I hope that we are able to solve a few more problems.

librarians-merit-post 3

This week on tueday, I hade librarians with Jessica, Lauren and Xanthe. We read to a lot of juinors that day. Mrs ward suggested that we take the lego and the barbie books down with us this time. We did just that and we were swarmed by juinors. I read about thirty barbie books and twenty lego books.

I used communicate and resilience by reading the books loudly and not giving up with having to read so many of them. I can't wait for next week because no matter what others say I find librarians quite enjoyble.

Assembly-merit- must do 2

This week we had a kauri assembly. The assembly was about 45 mins -1hr long. We sat near the back of the hall with the year sixes. My favourite part of kauri assembly is game time.

 I showed resilience making it through the assembly without talking to my friends next to me. I showed excellence by being a good example for the younger students. I am slightly looking forward to our next assembly even if they are really boring the game time is always pretty fun.
