Muriwai’s Inquiry Learning Story
When I was starting my inquiry I was choosing my issue and what I was
going to show my issue with. My issue was climate change and I was
making it with clay.
I chose climate change because it will affect everyone in the future and
I chose clay because I thought that it will be easier to make shapes. 
The first thing I did was to search for climate change so I could learn how
it happens and what it could do to everyone. Then I went to write
everything I knew about it. 
After I asked the teacher if I could get some clay for my inquiry and so I
could start working.
I drew a plan of what my clay was going to look like before the clay came
in and when the clay came I started to make what I wanted but I didn’t end
up finishing my inquiry.
The key competency I used was managing self because when I was near
my friends, I would try to focus on my work and not get distracted.

My next step is to take action because I wasn’t asking what I wanted from
the teacher so I didn’t have enough time to finish.

Workshop Reflection

Workshop Reflection When I was with Fritz we played a few games. Our first game was writing the meaning of teamwork, we each had a turn to write our  ideas down. My word was the word happy because I thought when  you are helping each other people we would be happy about it. In our  second game, we had to go into the shape of a circle while we held each other's hands and listened to what the teacher wanted us to do . The first thing the teacher told us to do was to move inwards then  outward. After that, we played a game called tic tac toe. We had to place a bib in a spot where the cones were the cones shaped as nine little squares. Once it's placed you run back to your teammates as  quickly as possible to touch them so it can be their turn and the first  team that scores three in a line is the winner. My favorite was tic tac toe because I knew I was good at it. My team won the first round but we lost in the last round.

Muriwai's Reading Learning Story My book is called Al Capone and it was written by Alan MacDonald and illustrated by Phillip Reeve. My book is nonfiction and I liked my book because it was interesting and it told facts and true stories about what happened ages ago to the main character Al Capone. And I liked that they told about his whole life like when he became famous. Whenever I go to the library and I need to choose a book I look at the chapter books and I always make sure that I read the blurb before I read the book. Reflection When I was reading this book I was good at inferring what was going on in the story and I was good at analyzing and synthesizing by locating important information. My next steps are to find somewhere comfortable to sit where there are no distractions so I can read and I want to be able to evaluate information.
