Dear Mr Hendricks

Should we shorten our lunchtime break?

I think that you should shorten our lunchtime break so that we children can have more enjoyment with our friends or family. The reason why I help my family a lot so that I can get more time to play around with my cousins.  

Firstly, I would like to share my ideas with my family or friends and see what I learned in school with other students. I enjoy learning new words and new strategies in maths but mostly when the bell rings when it’s morning tea break.

Secondly at home I’m always bored because I don't have anyone to play with.. Playing by myself wasn’t easy than I thought since my sister stayed in the islands when we left last week Friday. When I left I thought about the lunch breaks, I said to myself “Maybe we should change the rules for the lunch breaks,” I spoke. .

Lastly, I got back to learn new things about the new strategies and the new words in each subject.

In conclusion, for the above reasons, I believe that you should shorten our lunchtime breaks or make it a little bit longer.

Yours sincerely

Megan

Thank Letter to Ms Parkes

Dear Ms Parkes

Thank you for helping room 11 students to improve their writing. We appreciate your help because you have made us improve. Learning new things from you is helping me with my writing.

My favourite thing in writing is recount or narrative. The reason  I like writing a narrative or a recount is because when I write I use my imagination about the characters in the story.

I’ve used different kinds of words in my recount writing. I need more practice with complex sentences.

I’m still struggling  with persuasive writing. I’ve tried practicing how to write a persuasive writing at home but I’m still stressed out when I write.

I appreciate your help Ms Parkes.

Your sincerely

Megan  

 

Maths E-Asttle Results

This is my E-asttle Maths Results. I got a 2P. I’m really shocked when I checked my maths results on e-asttle. I tried so hard to pass my test. Many questions were quite difficult for me but the most difficult question was to Find a fraction or percentages of an amount. Next time I set a test on 

e-asttle I would like to concentrate more on all my subjects. I would like to learn more about Geometry.

Grateful when I get something

Peaceful like my father

Prototec - Basic Facts

This is my maths results in Prototec. It was a quite challenging for me because decimals and percentages were quite difficult too. I need to learn my fractions and percentages off by heart. I have 10 of out of 10 in Multiplication, Division, Square roots and factors. The next time I set a basic facts test I would like to try stage 8.
