My CARE Progress.

My CARE Progress.

I have done a check of my CARE progress so far this year.


I am proud of my progress.

I am Proud of my Progress because I achieved my Bronze last term and I have already got few ticks for my Silver.


How far away are you from reaching your Silver?

I am quite far away from my Silver.


The area of CARE that I need to try harder in C / A / R / E.

I have chosen Active Thinking because I don't contribute to class and group discussions that often.


To achieve my Silver award quicker I need to Tick all my ticks off straight away instead of waiting till I have like 50 ticks I need to record.


The one thing that I can do to improve my progress in CARE is try to use most of the CARE values for the rest of the year instead of using them sometimes.

We will review CARE progress again at the end of the term.

Music

W.A.L.T -  I can describe the characteristics of music from songs of a different time and place.



Over the past 7 weeks I have been learning to describe the characteristics of music from songs of a different time and place.

I can describe these characteristics in a piece of music:

Melody - A part of a song that gets stuck in your head.

Harmony - A major song which is a happy song or a minor song which is a sad song.
Rhythm - A strong or regular repeated pattern.
Timbre - What makes the song unique.
Form - How the song is put together.


Here is an example of my learning.

Excellence Evidence - Can do #2

Kapa Haka

Can do

On Friday I had Kapa Haka.

Firstly, I walked respectfully to the hall and took my shoes off.  I entered the hall and sat in my place ready to start.

When everyone arrived, we starting warming up our voices.  The song we sung was He Honore.  Once we had sung that song, we moved onto Pa Mai.  The girl who usually started the song off wasn't there so the Year 8 girls had the opportunity to do it.  We didn't do it loud enough so the Year 4's gave it a go.  They were quite loud.

Then we sung Tahururu and Our school song.

The we started to practice for the Celebration of learning assembly and the Open day.

The CARE value I showed was Respect because I was very respectful towards others.

I got involved by singing at my very best each time.
