Dance

This term for action stations I did dance with Talei.

The first week we learned a hip hop dance to 7 rings by Ariana Grande. I found this a bit difficult but I pulled through and did the dance.

The second dance that we did was Heel and toe polka. What I found difficult was holding hands with other people that I don’t know but I enjoyed it at the end. Overall I really enjoyed dance.

Reflection.

This week my literacy group has been learning about the periodic table. I did research on gold, I found this easy but a wee bit hard. It took me about 20 minutes to fully complete it. Here’s the text.
