Pasianos Reading Learning Story

             Pasiano’s Reading Learning Story

How do we make meaning from the texts we read using a range of reading strategies?

 
Do you like animals?
Cause I do and here is my reading experience about animals.
This book I am about to share with you is a book called Over 1000 Fantastic Animal Facts.
It is by an author by the name of  Belinda Gallagher and the text type is a non fiction.                               
The purpose of this true story is to entertain my reader and hook them with some cool animal facts.         
I found out that all animals have different habitats like some live wooded areas,forest,scrubs,lakes,ponds and rivers.
I worked out that different animals are from different places e.g kiwis are from New Zealand and kangaroos are from Aussie.
I think that animals should be out in the wild rather being in the zoo because that's not

Pasiano's Polyclub L.S

Polyclub Learning Story


 No matter how far you go in life never forget where you came from you can't change who you are


In polyclub I am good at having lots of energy so I can do sharp actions and represent my culture because I am glad to have a culture like what I have and a family who accepts the language our family is from.

When I am doing polyclub I think about my family and what they have taught me to represent my Samoan culture. I love every single bit about how my family teaches me Samoan and does special moments about our family e.g (Funerals,weddings and farewells).

Something I need to work on in polyfest is following what my passion is and believing in what's right because all the years I have been alive my parents always believe in their culture and what's right.

As we are dancing I recognize some of the dance moves (some that I learn from my parents and some I learned from special family events). When I started polyclub in 2015 that was my first time I had ever tried but I wasn't worried because my family was teaching me some Samoan dances.


 Zion’s feedback
You are good at dancing and helping Nash with the other groups because you want to be a helpful and respectful person.
You need to work on not yelling out when you are trying to learn new move because it makes Nash angry and unhappy

Pasiano's Maths learing story T R M 3

Pasiano’s Maths Learning Story Term 3

Everything you do in the future will include math

The problem
Kahlisha wants to know how much milk is in this container to see if she’s drinking the right amount of milk each day for a child her age.

What is the volume of this container?


2cm




10cm





4cm


Explain how you know this.

                                          3
10cm x 4cm x 2cm = 80cm
10 cm(height) x 2 cm(length) x 4cm (width)

This problem is about Kalisha wanting to know how much liquid of milk is in each carton and making sure it’s enough for each day for her age

First we were trying to find out how much milk cartons they could carry.

Then we went 125 + 125 = 250 = 4c Then we did the same with 250 + 250 = 500 which makes 0.5kg because we thought of doing a additive strategy to help us see how much times we could + it.

After that we did 4 x 8 which = 32
And then we did 4 x 30 which = 120
And then so we + that together 32 + 120 and it was = 152

We chose to do this so we can find out how much the box weighed because we wanted to know what we were doing.

I am good at friendly arguing  because when I am talking to my group we are disagreeing and agreeing on each others opinions.

I am getting better at taking a risk because I can share my ideas to the class and I can help people when they are stuck and also I can work with others

I feel nervous when I share back sometimes because when everyone stares at me I always get butterflies and it also make me feel anxious.

I find it hard to repeat other people because sometimes I talk to my friends when I’m suppose to be listening and paying attention

I need to work on making connections because when I have the same ideas as someone else I always think, I should share my gold.

The key competency I use well in maths is managing self because I am always making sense when I am sharing back my gold

The key competency  need to work on is thinking because I need to learn new ideas and not say that ones that don't make sense.

Isabel said: Pasiano is good at including others when he is doing maths because when other people come he ask them if they wanna join.
Pasiano needs to work on repeating what other people say, because when he is talking other people say something and everyone else has to tell him (which is kind of annoying
cause it's his own bit.)

Pasiano's Dance L S T3

 Pasiano’s Dance Learning Story     Term 3

 “Practise like you’ve never won, perform like you’ve never lost”. 
In dance practice I danced as if I was on the actual stage, although I made mistakes, I practiced over and over again to change whatever mistakes I made. I tried to be sassy, going for gold I did everything in my power to make my character on stage look, wow!

I enjoyed the fact that one of the dance moves came from Fortnite  it’s called the flapper-it’s cool. What we wear and what we do suits the dance because of the colour of the suspenders we wear.

In dance I was good at doing sharp bouncy actions because I learned from all the practises that we have gone through .
I got better at  smiling because I was shy to perform in front of the audience, but now I just go for gold.

I felt proud of myself because I don't really like dancing in public, I get pretty nervous when it comes to dancing in front of heaps of people because I worry too much that I might make a mistake, but at the end of the day everybody makes mistakes.
Something that was hard for me was being nervous because in my head I was imagining what could go wrong with my actions.

The key competency I was good at was participating and contributing because I have been to all the practises. I was always involved in all our practices and in the end I knew I gave it my best. dance link


Zion’s feedback: I noticed Pasiano was good at adding his own moves and flair because he knew it well. I noticed Pasiano needed to work on keeping calm because he gets hyped a lot

The learning I find hard is maths because sometimes I give up and I get distracted.Next year I need to work on focusing on my work because I could change for college.

Pasiano's Legacy statement

  2018 my last year at Corinna School after 8 years of laughter, memories, and on and off times.

    I would like to be remembered as a young sporty, fit  13 year old. 

     I will never forget all my friends because they have   supported me throughout my years at Corinna School.

    I want to be remembered  as a person who teaches  other kids my sporty skills and a person who was good at hosting games at lunchtime.

    I’ll always remember those funny times, like when Stigi tripped me up. To be honest I actually deserved that because I was acting cool in front of the boys!

    I would like to thank all my friends and teachers because they have supported me throughout my years of learning new stuff.

  

    A challenging time would be when we used to do those tests  because I would just give up easily.

     If it wasn't for the support at Corinna School, my family and my friends I wouldn’t be where I am today.  There's a Samoan saying that goes ‘Uso aso uma!’ That's what I think of my friends here at Corinna.

             The Kursed Apple

 As I was walking through a forest,I saw this fresh juicy apple just waiting to be eaten.

I picked the apple off the tree and I was             about to take a bite, until this lady came out of nowhere and said” If you eat that apple there will be consequences.”

To be honest I didn't really care what she said so I took a bite anyways.

Woke up in a bottle.     “What the heck! Where am I?     is this a dream  .?”

Trying to call for help!  It's no use! I think back …
Can't take this anymore!  Hungry,cold and sick.  About to give up until this kid picks me up in the bottle and throws me on the ground.  The bottle breaks.

Yay I'm free but I’m still tiny. I don't care because I wont be seen again and I can do whatever I want.

     Next steps

More information about each thing that happened eg more about walking in the forest more about eating the apple more about being in the bottle when it was thrown.
 More words to describe to describe things  to make a picture in your readers head.

 Correct use of full stops at the end of each sentence and capital letters at the beginning use of commas.


  Strengths

  Use dialogue
A beginning , a middle with a problem and a great ending.
Use of paragraphs.
Sharing your feelings.   

Pasiano's Tech Learning Story

Tech Learning Story

When music hits you, you feel no pain.

We have just finished the music rotation with Mrs Connally. In music; we have been put in groups like a band and in our groups we had to pick a song that we would play with instruments.

In my group there was Prestigious, Keelan and Tevin: the music that we decided to pick was Don’t Worry by Bob Marley.

The instrument that I chose to play was a guitar. Keelan played the ukelele, Tevin played a bass guitar and Prestigious played the piano.

I was good at staying on task by listening to Mrs Connally’s instructions like: “Go and play the guitar” or “Go and play the ukulele” I played the xylophone until I found the right instrument to play which was the guitar.

It was hard for me to stop talking to Keelan because we both were distracting each other, Maybe next time I’m going to move away from Keelan.

I got better at trying new instruments because the only thing I usually play is Fortnite.

I need to work on stop talking to my friends by moving away. The key competency that I was good at was Managing Self because I got on with what I was doing.

The key competency I need to work on is Thinking about how I can play the guitar in our band because my beat was off.

Prestigious’s Feedback: Nano was good at playing the guitar in time with our band. You need to work on not talking when your not supposed to be.

P.e learning story

          P.E Learning Story
   
  “Just play, have fun, enjoy the game”
 
              Success criteria                                                                             
Participate and take risks- Step out of our comfort zones
Share the ball
Call out our team mates names to help relay the ball in
Include and encourage our team mates
Think strategically
Support each other by cheering and giving out high fives
Try our best and never give up
Have team talks to discuss our strategies
Reflect on our performance and get feedback so we can improve
Looking at the strategies that the other team uses so we can use those too.

       
 In P.E we have been learning how to participate,       take risk and step out of our comfort zones by playing dodgeball and longball.

The thing I was focused on was supporting others even when there were not in my team.

In P.E I'm good at long ball and dodgeball cause I'm good at throwing and I'm also good at cheering others on even if there not in my team.

It was hard to throw straight to get the player out in long ball  cause sometimes when I throw the ball it goes crooked.

Something I need to work on is throwing it more softley cause it might hurt others legs and I also need to work on throwing the ball straight cause sometimes it goes off my target .

My next steps is to throw straight cause sometimes it goes off and I also need to work on throwing more softer in dodgeball cause it might cause an injury.

Treselle’s feedback:
Pasiano is good at sharing the ball when it looks like someone is free to get because it makes it easier
He needs to work on throwing soft  because it could make someone cry

Art Leaning Story

Art Learning Story
               
How do we communicate important information and ideas about our identity using surrealist art ?
Success Criteria
Put something about the person inside or near their portrait
Use unusual colours for the facial features
Create an optical illusion. It looks real but its not
Mix up things and blended them eg the features
Make things  look like something they are not
Include lots of detail
Make look realistic
Make part of a person a thing that represents something important
Make the art is like a dream.


In art we been learning what surrealist art is.
We have been creating self portraits that share information about ourselves.

The thing I was focused on was how to draw light lines and shading and using bold colours.

My portrait tells a story because it gives us information about my identity.

At Pataka they showed us examples of portraits and I was able to use it on my own like the shading.

My next steps is to take a risk and add more detail to my self portrait.

Tevin’s  Feedback
Pasiano was good at shading  because it looks realistic like Jillian's one.                           
Pasiano needs to work on to add more detail to it. because  there is only a cross and turtle.

Maths Learning Story

Room 12 needs to buy furniture to meet their learning needs. Unfortunately, there is not much money left in the furniture budget, so they need to look for the best possible deal, so they can furnish our classrooms.


Furnware is offering 35% off all tables. The tables they want are usually worth $360. What is the sale price?
Office Max is selling the same tables at 45% off the total price. The tables we want are usually worth $420. What is the sale price?
Who should they buy their tables from? What is the saving, so they can justify their decision with Ms Whiting?

This problem is all about Room 12 needs to buy furniture to meet their learning needs. But there's not enough money in the furniture budget
 So they need to look for the best deal so they can furnish our classrooms.

 I was trying to find out what 35% of $360=?

First I did 10% of $360 is $36

The I did 5% of $360 is $18

So $360-$126=234

I knew that finding 10% was useful.
I had to multiply 10% times 3. My next step is to get better at multiplying percentages.

How I work in a maths group
In maths group I'm good at listening to others ideas.  And I'm good at repeating others clever ideas.

In maths I got better at asking for help and something else I got better at was asking questions to find out what the problem was about and questions like “Why did you do that?”

In maths I need to work on having a turn at writing ideas down because then my group can use my ideas too.

Prestigious’s feedback
You are good at taking risk by sharing your ideas to help our group.

You need to work on staying foccused on the problem and stay on task because you always talk about fortnite.

My Life Story

My Life Story

Talofa every one!!!! Welcome to my life story.
                       
7/26/05 was when it all started at Wellington Hospital.  I opened up my eyes and I was like What the heck am I doing here?
My family was cheering so hard it drew my attention. It was also scary because my family was screaming the whole hospital down and I only had small ears.
“I'm trying to get some rest here. I've only just been born anyways as I got older I had a hobby which was rugby I started playing rugby when I was only 5 for the Porirua Vikings with my two siblings Mysteeq and Jae.
My position was a winger.
5 years later…  at the age of 10 I stopped playing rugby and gave it a break.

I attempted to try out a different sport called flag and I was actually really good at it.
It was another one of my passions and I was also inspired by my friend named Kiti.


In school the only subject I like is P.E (physical education). We usually play dodge ball or long ball.
I like long ball and dodge ball better because I like throwing and running. 

I'm really good at working with the juniors because i'm patient and fun for them to play with.

I'm a Year 8 now and this is my last year at Corinna School.
This year I'm going to be a role model and going to improve on my learning.

In the future my dream is to play a professional sport named rugby league.

My Writing Learning Story
How do we communicate important information about our identity in an interesting way?
I was good at including a surprise, something unusual, or something our readers don’t know  because I said I only had small ears.

I got better at including an ending so my reader knows my writing is done.

I found it hard to add more writing to a different paragraph.

My next steps are to add more writing to paragraphs because my reader needs to know more.

Kate’s feedback:
This is such an interesting story. Your hook was great and you chose really interesting things about you to share with us. You wrote your story like you were talking to your reader. That was a great choice. I reckon your reader would have wanted you to write lots more about yourself. You used paragraphs and talking really well!!
