WALT: Create and advertisement persuading people to go to the Special Olympics here in Palmerston North. I used MS Publisher to create this poster. To make my poster stand out and grab the readers attention I had to make everything as bold as it would go. I found making it stand out challenging because whatever I tried to make it stand out it just wouldn't work. Something I enjoyed was being creative with it because it really showed out our creative side but on the computer. Something interesting I learnt about advertising was that everything has to get to the point in as few words as can be.

TIMELINE OF JUSTINE

WALT: identify the key items in Justine's life. Justine is the Special Olympian that our class adopted and are following this term.

WALT: follow an inquiry process and present out inquiry learning about the Special Olympics using MS Movie maker.Before making this movie, I looked over the feedback I received last term for my movie about China. Some of the things I took into consideration and tried to improve on when making this movie were making my voice loud and clear. Something interesting I have learnt about the Special Olympics during this inquiry is that there are 10 games in the Special Olympics.A challenge I found in this inquiry was all the filming because Ifound it hard to remember all my lines.I overcame this challenge by practicing my lines and eventually I remembered them.

St James Athletics day

Last week on Friday the 13Th of November we had our St James school Athletics at the Massey Track. A highlight for me was being Abel to do athletics on a proper track. Something I found challenging was the hurdles were bigger than I thought. Enjoy!
