I the end the pizza was 1853.88 metres long and it bet the old record by 400 metres.

Goal Reflections

Goal:  I organise myself to be ready to learn. I know when I need to take a break from my learning.

I think I worked towards this goal positively and I made the effort to take more breaks than usual I had a few huff'n'puffs and only one game so I think I could get better at doing this. I am going to keep this goal for myself to make sure I am refreshed and ready for learning. Keeping this goal will also help me stay focused and not get bored or tired.

Current Events

Marshall Janson suffered from meningitis when he was just one year old and narrowly escaped with his life but unfortunately his hands and legs had to get amputated but he still didn't give up on his dream of playing football with Tottenham Hotspur. Marshall was given the opportunity to warm up with the team before their game and was thrilled that his dream was coming true. Unfortunately  his mum was worried people would laugh at him, but instead the crowd cheered. As Marshall gets older he will need new prosthetic legs every year but they cost nearly 2 million dollars so his mum has begun fundraising so she can afford new legs for Marshall .

Book Bash

This year instead of doing Book club we are calling it Book Bash and we didn't get put into groups like we did last year get to choose the book we are going to be reading. One of my options was Soldier Dog by Sam Angus and that is the group I got put into. Instead of doing a normal role this week we are all making a prediction about what we think will will happen in the book. Before we made our predictions we got to read the back of the book . This is my prediction:


I think that Stanley's brother will go off to war and Stanley and his family will start missing him badly. When the family's puppies disappear I think that is Stanley's breaking point and that is when he runs away to join the army like the back of the book says. I think he will become best friends with the dog he is put with. In the end I think he will find his brother and they will both get home safely.

This Weeks Goal

Goal: I organise myself to be ready to learn. I know when I need to take a break from my learning.

I think this is a good goal for me because sometimes I find it hard to think and sometimes I need a break

Here are three things that I am going to try hard to make sure I do this week.

1. I am going to make sure that I am taking regular brain breaks at appropriate times. 

2. I am going to make sure I am eating brain food and drinking lots of water.

3. I will also try to keep myself organised so I don't get worried or stressed.

Goal Reflection

Doing the right thing in the right place

This week our goal was to do the right thing in the right space, it was also our goal last week but we still needed to work on it. I think I have achieved this goal because I have really thought about what I'm actually doing and what space suits what I'm doing like for example I needed to do some of my IE and the right space for that would have been the lounge (our quiet space) because my IE is an independent task. I also made sure that if I needed to meet with one of my groups about our collaborative learning we would go into the Hui room or the Hub because those are both collaborative zones.

Learner agency

• Smile , Laugh have fun , Be positive, Have growth mindset

I think these things give off a positive vibe which encourages others to keep smiling and see the positive side of a negative situation.

• Following my Mi Plan
• Booking Myself into workshops

I know that I need to get better follow my Mi Plan because I don't always get things done on time and I believe that I can get better at getting things done on time as long as I follow my Mi Plan. I need to take advantage of the opportunity that we have of booking ourselves into workshops , I think I need to look at what the workshops are about and look at my learner profile and think if that workshop will help achieve my goals and book into the workshop.
