Peace Week 2017
I have been learning about Peace Week.
Peace Week is an annual tradition organised by The Peace Foundation every year. You can learn more about The Peace Foundation by following this LINK.
As a way to learn about Peace Week I did three different Peace Week activities.
With Miss Brennan we created a poster to help promote peace and Peace Week.
With Mrs Baker we made hand print doves and wrote messages of peace on them.
With Mr Horn we looked at the symbols of peace such as the dove and created origami doves.
Here is an example of one of my activities
Student Led Conference
My highlight at my student led conference was I got to show my dad what we have been doing in the year 4 hub because he did not know everything that the year 4 hub does.
I am most proud of sharing my writing because my dad said that I had amazing handwriting.
I think my parents enjoyed my learning because they like it when I showed them what we were leaning about.
Next time I would like to talk more slowly.
