Sinead's week 8 refection

This is about what I have done why I have done it and now what shall I do!

What?This week I have learnt how to make a compound sentence and a complex sentence.

So what? I will add it into my writing and make it make more sense about what I am writing about. Maybe I will add a little quote to it so they know that I am really trying to show them about

Now what? I am going to find a new goal about my writing so I can up level and learn my new goal.Every time I do my goal I learn more things and succeed my goal!

How to survive your first night in... MINECRAFT!

In Week 6 of Term 1 our class focussed on how to write great explanations. We wrote about how to survive your first night in Minecraft (the game a lot of us are obsessed with!).

Here is my writing, after I have self-assessed and peer-assessed my work.

HOW TO SURVIVE YOUR FIRST NIGHT IN MINECRAFT

Minecraft is a popular game in the world .Minecraft is a game where you survive,mine and craft. The main thing about this popular game is that you have to survive the world. Your goal is to build a shelter and stay awake by the horrible mob/creatures lurking in the dark. Unless you get a bed!

Once you have spawned into the world the first thing you need is to find wood! Where you spawn will be trees. You must break them down into logs. Soon you will see the sun setting you must build a shelter quickly.

The sun hits ground and you must stay in your shelter for a long time.If you want a door so you can go out you're gonna need a crafting table .When it is day you might see zombies,Skeletons burning in the hot sun. Thats when you're safe but! You may see a strange creature with 4 legs following you.Its green! Now that is the scary part cause that is a creeper/mob which has a blowing power which can blow up when is close enough to you. It is as green like bright green seeds!.

Now if you see stone and you built shelter near it… make sure you still have wood if not get more wood! Press y and put it in your crafting area. It would change into wood planks. Now change it into sticks only use two wood ok! Now you will have 4 sticks. Now the wood you have make a crafting table. You fill the whole crafting space with wood.

Now that you have a crafting table you may make some tools or other things. Make a pickaxe by putting 2 sticks in a row. Then put your three wood planks on top with the sticks on the bottom middle rows. Then on the side where will be a  pixake. You can mine the stone but it will come out as a cobble stone. You can get three cobble stone to make a stone pixake.

Once you have made the stone pixake you will be able to mine stone much faster. If you see stone with black dots or shapes on it collect it so you can make torches. If you run you will loose hunger bar. Thats when you need to eat. You need to kill pigs,cows,chicken. After collect more stone and go to your shelter where your crafting table is.

Fill the outside of the crafting table with the cobble stone.Don’t fill the middle. It will make a furnace. If you have spare coal good because put it in the bottom part then the food you want to cook on the top.You can’t cook rotten flesh.

If you have killed cows you might of gotten leather. You can make some leather armor. Well I will show you how to make armor. To make a helmet you must put 7 leather shaped as a helmet.To make a chestplate you need 14 leather and shaped as a shirt. To make leather pants you need 10 leather and is shaped as pants. Finally to make boots you need  4 leather shaped as boots with a gap in the middle and that's how you survive in minecraft. Did you know that popular people play this game.

Reflection 2015 27/02/15

Reflection…

What:

For reading this week we have been focusing on searching the authors purpose. Searching the authors purpose means to find out the main idea that the author is trying to tell you or show you.

So what:

Why were we doing this?

We were doing this because it helps us understand what the text/author is trying to explain or evaluate the text/fact. We were working hard and reading hard about this and try understanding the text. It has helped us alot.

Now what:

My next strategy is by reading another text with another text  because it helps me to learn it in certain ways! I think this has helped me alot because I have learnt how to find the authors purpose.

 

I made a reflection about the authors purpose!

How to be a positive

This is my first explanation text for the year. I found doing the introduction easy because we did not have to do long and it will be the speech/introduction.

Hi everyone, Today I will be showing how to be a positive learner in McCahon Class! All you have to do is listen to these  ideas and they will get you into being a positive learner. Hope they make one good positive learner.

I will have eye contact to the teacher.

Even if I can’t do it I will believe in myself and never give up!

I should never distract my mates. I will make sure they concentrate.

Listening actively and really closely to my teacher and classmates.

If I have any trouble or I am stuck I would ask my friends/family

for some help on what my problem is. I will learn my learner profile and make sure I have done all of my week task.I will make sure I will change my words eg: I am not good at this! = What am I missing? 

I will always be listening and ready for any workshops.I will use my growth mind set. I will be respectful to my teacher or any relievers.

I will be making more and more friends that need help with their learning. I won’t litter the school. I will clean after my self.

I will use my thinking cap on and think really hard on my work and make sure it makes sense. I will try to get up yo Extended Abstract before the end of the year. I will stay on task and business as usual.

My goal setting!

These are my goal setting hope you enjoy!
