This term i am struggling to have technical language in my writing and I am liking the work so far. Paragraphing the notes is also a struggling matter for me, the strategies that i think i'm doing well in is putting the punctuation in the right places and doing enough work that needs to be handed in.The learning in reading that i enjoy is okay also the reading in the text isn't really challenging but still challenging enough for me to think about.

This term I've been learning how to write a proper explanation.The comprehension questions that we get is really helpful because it gives us a better understanding of the text that we are given.The things that I'm struggling with is the explanation writing but the only thing that I struggle with the explanation writing is the technical language because sometimes I might put it in the wrong places.

Kia Ora this term I have been learning about Reports and Explanations. To be honest I am struggling with keeping up with my work because I keep on getting distracted or I might distract others around me...

I also need help with my explanation because some times I don't bother to listen and when I say I'm struggling I mean I can't really explain it in order probably...😃

Reflection on Writing Activities- For this term we have been learning about explanation and report writings, I have been struggling with my lack of gathering accurate information. I also have been struggling with my punctuation and placement of capital letters.

Reflection on Reading Activities- I enjoy our activities for reading because it is simple but also makes us think at the same time. For reading this term I have been struggling with my timing and getting my work finished on time.

1)This term I've been struggling with Technical language in my reading and writing, also struggling to figure out a title for my explanation.But the information i get to help with my explanation helps make a good explanation like how i knew to use third person voice.But the main reason i'm struggling with is punctuation like putting it in the wrong place and also struggling to find a meaning for vocabulary

Kia ora everyone, I just had a thought which leads to this question - How do you like the video instructions that I put on our google classroom? Do they help? If yes explain why, if not explain why...

Mr Downes 19-06-2018

jason67 — 2018-06-19 03:38:00 UTC

Descriptive Language, a number of you are struggling with descriptive language - if you can imagine it you can describe it.
eg - It is curvy and shiny, it comes in a variety

Mr Downes - 19-06-2018

jason67 — 2018-06-19 03:53:34 UTC

What about visual language, what is it, what do we know about it, how does it work...
