Water Safety

I  Learned water safety.


In the beginning, I learnt how to get in the pool safely by putting your beside you and turning clockwise or anticlockwise halfway around your body. We finish by diving underwater to touch the ground of the pool. Sculling is for protecting your head.


Next I learnt the back scull. For the back scull you have to lift your feet flat on the water and push your hands out so you can go faster. 


Finally I learnt how to do a front scull. To learn how to do the front scull you have to lift your legs behind you and move your hands in and out. 


I enjoyed learning about water safety because it will help me when I am swimming.

Duffy Assemble

LS1 and I watched a play about school lockdown.


In the beginning, they talked about which character they were going to be. They sang some songs and we sang along with them. They also talked about the rules so people can see, hear.


Next we watch the part when Scruffy pulls out Duffy's aunty prize winning flowers.  


To finish up we asked some questions.  


I enjoyed watching the play because if there's a lockdown you can still learn new things.

Toy Tech

My group, Plastic People made our final product and is ready te be sold in our market.

First we drew our design and our design was the plastic army men and our background was world war 1. For example we drew some tanks and some army cars. We chose small pom poms because the big pom poms where to heavy to vibrate out of the cup. 


Next we chose the pieces to the party popper that was on our sheet.  


Last we popped our party popper to see if it was good or not.  


I thought this activity was fun because we got to make our very own product that will be sold on our market.

Party Popper

 My company, Plastic People made a party popper prototype.


First we modeled the parts so we could see which parts were the best. For example we chose the medium rubber band because it did better performance when we modeled the short rubber band. The design we chose was a pokemon because it fit with our market which is gamers.


Next we wrote down the parts that we needed so we could make our party popper.  


Lastly, we made a prototype of our party popper and tested it.  Our prototype did not do well because our hole was too big and our confetti was too big.


I thought  this activity was fun because we got to make our very own product that will be sold on our market.

Basic Facts Boxes

I completed a speed demon challenge. I did subtraction up to 5. I got 100/100 and my time was 3 minutes and 16 seconds.


I think this was to easy for me and I need to try a harder one next time.

  

Vocablury

I learnt some words that we need to know before reading this book.

First we gave the meanings to 2 words: 

  • rūma - Room

  • hive - a place where bees live


Next we read the book and answered the question using the comments.

I thought this activity was fun because I got to learn a lot about bees and honey.

 I learnt how to read Tempature And Length.

First my group and I poured water in the lunch box and then I put the thermometer in the lunch box.

Next we poured diffrent amounts of water in the mesureing tubes.

I thought this activity was hard because I had to read the amounts of water in the measuring tube.

HPE

  Today I learned how to play table tennis for HPE and was playing table tennis.

First I had to hold the bat like a gun but my index finger is on the other slide of the bat.


Then I practiced bouncing the ball on the bat was my forehand. It was easier to bounce it on my forehand.

After I had to practice bouncing the ball with my back hand. This skill was the hardest because it always goes on my finger.

Last I had to practice doing a drop serve. I had to bounce the ball on my square and bounce it on your opponent's square.

This was a fun activity because I was doing a competition and playing table tennis.

 Today I was doing maori test and weather memory game.

The first word I learnt runga, raro, roto, waho.

Then I tested me on maori I got 20/20.

Lastly we played a memory game in weather. We had match cards to see if they are the same.
