REPORTS........

I think my report wasn’t that bad. I just think that I have to work on a few things and try and achieve them before the end of the year .

The things that I need to work on at home is to practice my writing. I have to use more specific vocabulary. My writing has to be really interesting so that when other people read it they will be hooked into it.

I know that I have to work hard and study hard this year because next year I will be attending college. The other things I also have to work on and strive to achieve is using and memorising more strategies to work out problems in maths.

The two things that I am achieving quite low at is my writing and maths. For those two subjects I am at a year 4 level so by the end of the year I have to at least be writing at a year 8 or year 7 level.

For all the subjects there is always an expected level. The level that I’m expected to be at right now is at a level 3A or 4B.

Last night when I sat down with my parents we discussed everything that I needed to work on.

Why are we one of the RICHEST kids in the world!!!

This morning at assembly our school principal came to talk to us about how and ‘why we are one of the richest children in the world’.

Our Principal Mr Burt told us that we were one of the richest kids in the world because we have better school buildings and that we have more money than other people in the world. He has just come back from over seas and he says that the movies that come on TV may look fancy and rich, but when you actually go to the country it’s not that rich.

He told us that every school he went to visit was very poor and broken, because some school’s didn’t have enough money to pay their teachers. Many teachers only worked four days a week.

Anyway apart from all of that. I think that we are one the richest kids in the world because we all have a chance to have a good education. We also have good teachers who help us throughout our learning. Another thing why I think we are one the richest kids in the world is because our parents have good jobs and also their pay is very good compared to some other countries.

We are very privileged because of what we have and what we own around here. I know that sometimes when we have an abundance of things like food we don’t like, we just waste them when we really shouldn’t be.
