term 1 week four

Week four was interesting. We had approximately four tests including PAT maths, Asttle reading, PAT vocabulary and a couple more these tests taught me that you need to concentrate and strive for excellence. we also started our maths work to improve on estimation, rounding, place value etc. We are also continuing on our sweatshirts in tech arts a few people need to catch up as they have started late or have been away. The year sevens are getting used to the new school life at TAI. In maths we learnt about place value as I had made some dumb mistakes in our entry test. we also learnt about rounding which we had learnt the year earlier just like the rest but I had probably made some dumb mistakes. Estimation was a similar story. This week we began an explanation on one of the wonders of the the world. I have chosen the temple of Artemis at Ephesus. We also found out who were the house captains an class Councillors.
My overall summary of week four is that is was a busy and exciting week.

Term One Week Three

Week three was an interesting week. A great start to the year though if you ask me. our first test was asttle writing, which went pretty well in my opinion. I applied for House Captain and Class Councillor but didn't manage to get either position. 

In tech arts we are designing and sewing jerseys for ourselves.  by the time of writing this i have managed to sew a straight seam, hem a piece of fabric, design an applique, design the outline of the jersey and cut out the pieces of the fabric. 

I've really enjoyed the first three weeks of school even though I haven't gotten into rockband or gotten any leadership roles.
