step 1  Identify/finding the problem..
step 2  Research need or problem. Find out more thing about the problem.
step 3  Develop possible solution. Think of good ideas.
step 4  Select the best possible solution. Use the best solution.
step 5  Construct a prototype or trial . Build a prototype.
step 6  Test and evaluate the solution. Test the prototype.

I think the design process is very helpful because when we were designing our spaceships it made it easier.

The Writing Process

View more presentations from Holy Trinity RCSSD #22

This term we learned about the writing process.

The writing process has five steps. Pre-writing, Drafting, Revising, Editing and Publishing. Pre-writing is when you brainstorm some ideas that your going to write about. Drafting, is when you free write something. Revising is when you look back at your work. Editing is when you find your mistakes and fixing them. Publishing is when you re-write your draft copy but without any mistakes. The writing process is very helpful to use and will also help you write an excellent explanation.

How to Write Excellent Explanations

What words describe our feelings about good things?... at AnswerGarden.ch.

First Queens Park Cross Country

First day down at Queens Park for senior school cross country.  Everyone walked down really well and was ready to go.  Would have to say most people tried hard, some more than others though.  We still need to remember to try and have a steady pace not start, stop, start, stop!

Need to mention two people I saw do really well.

Mickayla and Genesis they both found a steady pass and didn't stop till they got to the end.  Ka pai you showed true determination, and have earned the right to be really proud. (Keep it up!)  

Overall lots of positives and a little room to grow!
