Yesterday at Hornby High School we had our very own market day! This took us 4 weeks to plan this all, We had many tasks to do for our business to be a useful one. Some of our tasks were financial reports or if we needed more money we would have to persuade the teacher. we did a sausage sizzle and we made heaps of money

Matariki
I am researching and learning about Matariki. Matariki is all about Celebrating the Maori new year and spending time with family and friends. When Matariki arrives in New Zealand you will see 7 stars in the sky which symbolises the Maori new year. The stars Tupu-ā-nuku, Tupu-ā-rangi, Waitī, Waitā, Waipunā-ā-rangi and Ururangi.

Freeze Frame-Thought Tracking
In Hurumanu today we were learning about freeze frames and thought tracking.
First of all we read a story then we all had turns of creating a freeze frame form one scene. Then Mrs Clark Filmed us and asked us what our thoughts were in that scene.
The photo of my group wasn't very good so here is another groups photo.
