P.E, Rugby Skills, Passing

In P.E we have been doing rugby. For our first time, we did rugby passes, we got into a small group and stood in a line, one person on the end would be holding the rugby ball. Then we threw the ball to the person next to us, we had to make sure that the person with the ball had to be in front of everybody. We were making sure that we were swinging as the ball went across our body, and when we were throwing the ball, and when we were catching we had our arms ready to catch the ball. We started off walking and passing and then we moved onto jogging, once we had finished our passes we played a game. The aim of the game was to try and get a 'try' in a small area, we had to sort ourselves into two teams. One team started with the rugby ball, you throw the ball to someone in your team and try and get to the side of the box to win and get the try, I enjoyed P.E I liked doing the passes and the game was lots of fun!

Protractors

Last week, and this week, we have been working on protractors in maths. We had to measure and find out the degree of different shapes. After we had done that, we made some tables out of paper in shapes of, rectangles, squares and triangles. Here is my one, we had to add up the total of all our angles on each shape, when we add up triangles, they all equal 180 degrees.

Powhiri

Today when we did our Powhiri, we started with a Karanga. We called on the Manuhiri. Once the Manuhiri sat down, Fergus stood up and spoke. After Fergus had finished our class, (room 12b) sung a waiata, Tutira Mai Nga Iwi. After, room 6  stood and spoke once they had done that they sung a waiata and presented the Koha and finally sat. Fergus stood and took the Koha, and then we did a Hongi with the other class. Once that had finished, we all entered the hall (marae) and shared our banners explaining a little more about them. once we had both done that we all walked to our class and shared learning and some kai I was in the group that shared our money slides, then room 6 wen't back to their class.

First Day At Electronics

Today was my first day at Electronics, I looked at the Get Ready Get Thru website and learned how to be prepared for an emergency. We also learnt that we should be prepared for any type of emergency, If I prepared a kit for an emergency, my family would need a torch with batteries or a self chargeable torch, food and water for 3 days including the pets and a radio. We looked at some helpful tips and what sort of supplies you would need in an emergency helping your pets and just for you and your family. Altogether I would need 45 Litres for my family and my pets. We watched a few clips on Get Ready Get Thru and it showed us and reminded us that we need to be prepared for any emergency anytime anywhere, they demonstrated what it would be like if it happened the next morning or at night how you would be prepared once you woke up knowing you had supplies.

Anzac 8 Tasks

Anzac 8 Eight Tasks

Gallipoli Map
Last term me and some other girls in our class made a 3d gallipoli map. We used scrunched newspaper and stuck it on. Once we had done that we used white paper cut it into strips and stuck it on top of the newspaper to give it an effect we used pva glue. After we had done that we painted the hills and I chose to outline mine in yellow to give it some texture and an effect. After we had finished all of that we wrote in vivid and labeled some of the places such as, Anzac Cove, Sulva Point, Sulva Bay, The Dardanelles and C. Helles. I found it hard to paint the dardanelles there were bits of newspaper everywhere! Making these 3d maps was loads of fun and I like what I made, here is my one.
