Our Literacy Rotation

This Term our teachers in team 5 our teachers said that they will make us come to school at 8:30 and do the roll then we have to group up and go to our class my first rotation was filming we got told from our teacher told us to make a movie with a song inspired by Micheal  Jackson my group did Black or White. The people in my group was my friends Wakatere, Shanika and I. We went out side our class  to the park to do the video.

 I am not going to show the video all because it is already on my blog if you want to see more videos of Micheal Jackson Click here https://vimeo.com/user9281605 it will take you to all the videos made from the intermediate classes have made. My classes I go to now is reading, writing and Literacy. I have done all the classes but now I am going back to reading then I am all done. In the other groups are Animations, Filming and Maori art.

Maori art is when you get a piece of paper, a black piece of paper and a Kowhaiwhai. A Kowhaiwhai is a koru and a koru is a maori pattern and what we do is make a maori pattern and then we have to glue it on the piece of paper and then you let it dry and you can have a rest. For writing we had to a movie on youtube called the prospective student but today you do not need to look it up because you just click here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NU0wXxDEenk&safe=active after we watched this we had to write about what had happened.

For reading we had to read about matariki and then we had put all our information in a form. For Literacy we had to read a card with a story and then we had to write everything in a doc and it was questions and answers. It was pretty easy but it is was because I had gotten an easy book.

What I felt about this literacy rotation is that it is really cool all because you get taught by different teachers in the intermediate schools and it is great to be with other teachers.
