Kiwi Can Reflection
Today Room 9 went down into the music room first thing this morning for Kiwi Can.
In Kiwi Can we learn about special values, and how and why we should use it, our value today was problem solving.
What I liked about our Kiwi Can session today was that we did a fun activity where we had to get into groups and create a skit about problem solving. In my group was Frances, Gary, Ana, Jason and Toni we decided to do a role play about spreading rumours and fights. We had Ana spreading a rumour about Frances talking negatively about Toni towards Jason, Toni eventually heard the rumor and started to fight Frances, me and Gary stopped the fight and it was all sorted.
There was one point in the Kiwi Can session where we had to disguise your voice and say "Usain Bolt is the champ again" It was fun but I think I need to work on my different types of voices.
WALT: Reflect on our learning
Please give me feedback and feed forward. Thank you for reading

All about me
WALT: Reflect and share my story
This is just a preview of my story, Last term we had the opportunity of sharing our story, unfortunately we did not complete it and I have decided to narrow it down and share with you a little bit about me.
I will be posting some more post based on me later on. Please enjoy :D
What kind of reader am I?
What kind of reader am I?
I am the type of reader that likes comedy, non-fiction and fiction, I enjoy Captain Underpants, Dear Dumb Diary, The Diary of the Wimpy kid and The BFG. Comedy books are the type of books that will get me hooked in right away along with a bit of sassy drama.
My Favourite authors are Roald Dahl and Dav Pilkey. Roald Dahl is such an inspiration for children, I find him so artistic he said exactly “If you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely." Fun fact about Roald Dahl is 10% of his income goes towards Roald Dahl's Marvelous Children's Charity. I also Love Dav Pilkey, I love his creative series of Captain Underpants and Dumb Bunnies. He has been influenced by Dr Seuss, Marc Chagall and Vincent Van Gogh. The reason why Dav Pilkey’s name is spelt the way it is, is because when he worked at Pizza Hut the “e” was taken from his name tag.
I think reading is very important, reading will extend your prior knowledge and help you in the future with your learning. You need to know how to read because there are going to be a lot of moments where you are going to have to read at some point in your life. Reading is fun, some books inspire you to write, Benjamin Franklin once said “Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.” In conclusion I am the type of reader that loves to read.
WALT: Identify what type of reader you are
Today in class I went scrolling through my folders to complete unfinished work and have it blogged, I am not quite sure when I started this piece of writing but I am glad to have it completed. Basicly I am describing what kind of books and authors I like and a hint of quotes and facts. I will hopefully be blogging a lot more for the rest of this year.
Thankyou for Reading :D
