My art work

Last week our teacher whaea Cara was reading us a story about theses kiwi's and so their were koru's in the background and that was our task to draw a koru of our family. The challenging part was finding a koru that has the right amount of spirals that represents my siblings and my parents. The part I enjoyed was coloring in the koru because I got to use an election of crayons. what  I learnt was how to draw of cool koru without putting the paper on the screen and  drawing over it. The thing I would change about my art would be the color choice because the colors were ugly and those colors were red, orange and yellow.

Worms

This week we have been working on Pangarau. We have been learning about worms. In this math game you need to draw a systematical table  to record your learning. Then you get a hundreds sheet and coulor   in 34,35,36,37,44,45,46,47,54,55,56,57,64,65,66,67 in any coulor. then you need to use 3 of the same coulored blocks and 1 different coulored block then you have to try and find different shapes for the worm but the trick is that you have to keep the head on the coulor numbers.  When you play this game you have to  add  the numbers that the worm is covering then when you  all of add them all up and the you get the total. my favourite part was working with my buddy. The hard part was trying to get as many shapes as possible. My next step is to learn more possible ways to add and takeaway.

Review

Today we had to make our end of year review it was cool because we got to choose our own photos. We had to make our end of year review I did mine around Whakaiti-respect, Mana motuhake and Manawaroa. The hard part was finding 20 different photos. The easy part was putting them onto kizoa. The thing I will do next time is make sure I double check on my video for mistakes. Here is a link to my video. Take a look

Athletics day

On Tuesday we had our athletics day. We had all kinds of activities like hurdles,  long jump, high jump, shot put, discus and sack racing. when the day started the yr 7 and 8's started at hurdles I got 6 seconds. On the day we had to learn how to show the school values and how to show great sportsmen ship because there were also junior's watching us. when it got closer to the end of the day we did our house chant's and then sat in our houses. When athletics day finished I looked back and I thought of the best activities and that activity that was my favorite was doing long jump. My least favorite one was doing high jump because I don't know how to jump in scissors position. The easy part was having fun and collaborating with everyone. The hard part was dealing with my saw foot. I think my next step is to really try and practices scissors jumping. Any ways here are some photos of the day.

 

Waka reflect

On Saturday I floated my boat and I thought it would sink. But after I used nearly everything on the bench it still didn't sink because it had dense. I used a soap bottle, hand soap, tooth paste and about 10 other things. I used these because they were all heavy and some were light.  here's a photo of my boat
