Music Reflection

For five weeks we have been doing a music program called Rad Rhythm. It teaches us the different types of notes in music and all about bars of music. I learnt that there are four notes in one bar. Did you know you can do maths with music.

One note =  1

One note = 2

One note = 4

One note = 1/2

One note = 8

My favotirte thing about music is the theory session where we practice the different routines we have to learn to  play the performance at the end of the course. I  am enjoying playing the bins and using the lids. It sound a bit weird but we used bins, drum sticks, and the lids to make the music.

I.E

For my I.E I am doing animals used in war before guns. It is very interesting but there is not much info, I can only find a little bit of info about dogs,pigeons and quite about about horses and elephants. It is very interesting what I can find though. Did you  know elephant Armour had about 8,850 plates on it and weighed about 158 kgs. I am using a few different websites . I have found 2 websites about Armour for animals and a couple about animals used in war.

Writing and me





Goal Reflection

I can make positive choices that are right for my OWN learning.

I was looking for somewhere to sit to do my I.E. I knew that I needed to sit somewhere where I would not get distracted by other people,  normally I would sit in the quiet zone but it was full and there were no spaces left. So I went and found a corner in the meeting space that no one was sitting in and got started. I found two really good websites that answered two of my questions and maybe three.

Easter Holidays




On Friday night I stayed a night at a friends house and when I came back on Saturday there was heaps of chocolate was waiting on my desk. But for that day we just sat on the couch watching movies and eating chocolate. I went out for a while and came back inside and continued watching T.V. The next day on Sunday we went to Hamilton to go shopping. The first thing we got  was a scooter for me and heaps of clothes for my mum.

Then we were walking around the shops and going into a lot and a lot of shoe shops. In the end we went to a shoe shop called Hannah's and my mum got boots that were half price. There was a deal that was buy one get one half price so I went walking around the shop to find some shoes that I like and I found shoes that were already half price and they got halved again. They ended up being 25 dollars instead of 100.

We did not do much on Easter but what we did do was fun.
