🌺Anzac Memorial Service Reflection🌺

WALT: reflect on the Tamaki Primary Anzac Memorial Service

On Anzac Day it was during the holidays which was April 25th! So we missed it but that doesn't mean we still can't pay our respects and show our honours therefore....

On Thursday (Yesterday) Tamaki Primary School, had a Anzac Memorial Service in order to pay our respects and show our honour to those who fought for the freedom of our nation! From each class would a presenter or presenters.. and those people presenting would either read a poem, being up a reef or perform an item to still show their respects! From our classroom (Room 9) we had 3 people presenting a poem which were..

• Akanesi
• Aumau
• Leilani

And Sene which was the reef carrier or taker. At the beginning of the service we sang our national anthem (New Zealand) along with the Australian National anthem with sitting and listening to the sound or instrument of the trumpet!There were a lot to different performances and even the junior children from the younger classes surprisingly surprised me with the tone, and words they used and pronounced during presenting their item!  At the end of the service each class would go up and have their moment of silence! It went from Room 1 to Room 10. As I stood their in silence I looked down and saw all those names with many more to be listed! I then wondered if i wasn't for these people who fought us freedom wouldn't be with us or one with us! Therefore I was very grate for every fought they fought and every bullet then had taken. Milan and Michael were the hosts of the Anzac Memorial Service and they had done a excellent job knowing they were from Room 6.

🌺Anzac Tables Reflection🌺

IALT: reflect on the task just completed based upon completing 3 Different Anzac tables.

The task just completed was when we were given multiplication questions first.. Some questions we were given for example were..

• 7 x 5
• 9 x 8
• 8 x 8
• 7 x 11

And many more challenging multiplication questions to challenge our Maths or multiplication knowledge. It was challenging my knowledge at first but since I was using a majority of different strategies and using a number of different ways by asking for help... or helping others I was able to complete this task! After filling out all the questions at the bottom for each letter from A-Z there was number! And you had to figure out what word or words those number would make!

The first set of words that I crack with help from others of course was..

"LEST WE FORGET"

The second code I cracked was..

"Today we remember them"

And last but not least the crack that I was able to figure out was...?!

"AUstralian and New Zealand Army Corps"

After completing all 3 of these Anzac tables.. the words that have been cracked have not only helped for me to see clearly on what they have done and sacrificed for myself but also on those views and perspectives of others!

Something I found easy and fun about this task was that everyone was able to collaboratively work together.. and hep each other and though it seemed as if it was a race when some were done they helped others out! Which to me was showing our Tamaki Values!

How do you celebrate Anzac Day?

Please leave a comment of a piece of feedback, feedforward, and suggestions on how you think I could improve more and more on not only my blogging skills but on my skills on completing more Anzac Tables! Maybe you could even leave easy starigities.. to help challenge myself more!

Thank you for viewing...

Hope to see you viewing and commenting on many more of my blog posts further in the future.
