The first 3 weeks of school

The first 3 weeks of school has been great. I am in 8Mt this year, and have already learnt a lot.  Mr Mitchell is pretty awesome... his jokes are great too...

A few things I've learnt is - 


1. I've learnt that Mr Mitchell is a great teacher...

2. I've learnt about using more interesting vocabulary and punctuation in my writing.
3. I've started learning about statistics, mainly about graphs. 
4. I've learnt how to use burners in Science.
5. I've learnt a few more words and phrases in Maori. 
6. I've learnt tips about how to sketch superheroes.
7. I've learnt a bit of how my class is like, including students and teachers. 
8. I have also learnt a bit more about the Treaty of Waitangi. In class we are working on having a class treaty, something similar to the treaty of waitangi. 

The best thing that happened in the first few weeks, was the top team challenge. I did not know that it involved water, and I was drenched at the end... But it was a lot of fun!
This year, I have already applied to be doing kitchen duty, applied for the Junior Council 2017, and have applied to be a Year 8 Mentor. 

I have learnt way more things, but those are some of the things I have learnt. I am looking forward to the rest of the year as a year 8. It has been hard getting used to school again, but it has been pretty fun.
