Polyfest 2015 Learning story

On 5th August, Corinna School performed their Polyfest concert at Hosanna church. We were doing Samoan dances and songs in front of our family and friends. All of the students at Corinna School were performing their own culture; like Maori, Cambodian, Cook Island and Tokelauan. 

When the door opened up to go up on the stage my stomach went empty, and then billions of butterflies entered my stomach and flew around. I been relating by contributing to going to practice we even practice at Hosanna church. When we were on stage doing the sasa we were communicating which  side to go when do the sasa.          

Term 2 maths learning story

In maths I have been learning to solve problems quickly by using multiplication.

 I have been learning to use my multiplication to solve problems.


Multiplication is a good strategy to use because it is faster. Multiplication is the same as repeated Addition. 

5x23=(5x20) + (5x2)=110

I am also learning to work in a team to solve problems. We need to work together and share our ideas and listen to other peoples ideas so we all know how to solve the problem.

My next step is to be able to  confidently explain and justify the strategies we used to solve the problem.
