This week I have learned:

It was Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori, or Maori Language Week, at shcool this week. We created a boil up as a part of the day we spent at the Tech Art Block.I learned how to meake poi out of stuffing, cord, a plastic bag or two, some string, and sellotape. I also learned how to make a Bullroarer, which you spin through the air, and the Bullroarer makes either a deep vibrating sound or a high one, depending on the shape of the Bullroarer.

In maths this week, I have learned how to give vectors eg. (3,-2) to translations. The example I gave translates the shape 3 right, 2 down on a square grid.

My goals for next week are:

To keep up to date with my maths by getting a new maths book, and working hard to complete my work.
To learn as much Japanese as I can before I go to Japan, so I am prepared for the experience.
To hand in my latest book review and to get good marks for my effort.
