Leadership Article Writting

In writing I have been learning to:
  • use all basic punctuation independently
  • attempt more complex punctuation (eg semicolons, colons, parentheses)


I have been especially focusing on using parentheses and commas. I have highlighted these in green where I have used them as well as other punctuation that I changed because it was used incorrectly. Here is a piece of my writing that shows this.

So overall to be a great leader (like Mr Barack Obama) you need to have the six leadership traits Integrity, Goal focused, Trustworthy, Active thinker, Resilient and Motivational.

Merit Can do #2

The last few weeks at tech haven't been that great but a way I showed leadership was by when the teachers asked us to do something I would do it, also when we were on the bus I would only talk to the person next to me which was usually Charlotte L. The values I showed the most was Community and Respect because when someone asked me to do something I did it.

Merit Must do #2


This week we got to present the house points for the first time. when we got called up Katie and I were very nervous then when we were on stage it got better lots of the kids where into the drum roll and the new presentation, this week we also had run bike run we had to get some buckets for people to put there pozis in it was really fun at the run bike run. The leader ship value I showed most was Community because when I saw some rubbish then I would pick it up I also cheered for all the people that I saw.

Merit must do #1

Today we did buddy program I was teaching the juniors how to play with out or with minimal equipment. it was very challenging at one point we had lots of kids that did not want to play the games we had so we got them to tell us the games they wanted to play. I showed leadership by being resilient when the kids wouldn't listing and not playing. the value I showed was excellence I showed it by, when some people wanted the court we split it in half so that both groups could have the court.

WALT : know square numbers to 100 and the matching square roots

In Maths we have been learning:


Square numbers to 100 and their matching square roots.
This is part of our basic facts knowledge.
It is important to just know these as we can use this knowledge in other areas of maths.




Here are the IXL screenshots that show evidence of my learning.  






My next learning step in Maths is not to talk to my friends when trying too learn because I kept getting distracted and to be able to answer square root questions faster.
