Mr Andrew Patterson's back!!!

11/12/17 At 9:30 today, Mr Andrew Patterson came back to Team5 with an guest, Raenan!
Raenan's a ex student from P.E.S, he was attending at P.E.S about 4 years ago and now he is
attending to Tamaki College. Today he talked about how his college's life been. When he was in
intermediate, he was like all of us, then as the intermediate school life ended. It was time to move
on to college life. When he first knew he was going to TC (Tamaki College) he didn't wanted to go there because some of this friends who weren't going to TC said that, it was a bullying school and they always fought with other school.


But Raenan's mum didn't change her so she told him that he can go to TC for the first year and change to Glendowie. After a year, Raenan decided not to change because TC had many opportunities, he always had a goal to be a head boy when he first started college and now after 4 years, he became Deputy head boy for 2018....He gave us many inspirational advice.

Solve problems

This week I've been learning about fractions, decimals and percentages.

Narrative writing

In 2000, there were two girls but one of them were rich and one of them were poor. Their names were Jessica and Ella.

Jessica was amazingly rich but Ella wasn’t. In Jessica’s life she had everything that she’d ever wished for, she had ten times better things than what normal kids had.

But in Ella’s life, she wasn’t rich like Jessica she was just a kid that didn’t have no money no nothing. She tried to find a job but she had no luck finding one. So Ella was off trying to find a job the next day until she found a penny and that penny had brought good luck to Ella she had found a job just like that.

Ella enjoyed living with her friend Emily they both moved to california where Jessica had lived so that if Ella and Emily were in need of help they could just go and visit Jessica if they were in det of their bills water food or anything Jessica was like a sister to Emily and Ella jessica was really helpful.

So they lived a happy life together and they were living a dream.

This week, my literacy class have been writing about their stories. Here's my writing that I've finished.

Our market day recount

Walt: Write an interesting and detailed recount

On the market day, so many people were excited and happy. We take each turn and 2 people go to buy

and 2 people stay at the shop. People bought a lot of food from kitchen and before the market

day, we had an auction and if we want to use our pt and pieces at the auction we can use or we can save  

for the market.  

We are having our market day which was an awesome way to use the money we had been saving. Most people were wasting all their pt and pieces, but some people hadn't. Now we know how to use the money. After the bell we go into our trade and enterprise group and people are working

hard.  

Before the market, we were getting ready and making posters. We set up our tables and we hung up our bunting. We stick our posters in front of the tables. We set up our tables next to miss lavakula class. We put

on the tables a sheet and we put our candles on the tables. We were now ready.

Our group are selling skull candles and orange candles and we sold all the candles we had made

and  we got a lot of pt and pieces. When we are selling visitors are come to our shop and bought

our candles. Our business group is homeware.   

I can’t buy a lot of things because I was selling first and then when I go to buy there nothing  else to buy

it’s all sold out and I bought loom band bracelet and maths book cover and some food.  

I thought about the market day, It’s was good and everybody was happy and teachers are happy.
