Technology

IALT:reflect about what I did at Technology.

Today was our first time going to technology for Term 3. What we did was the same thing from last term which was pewter with Mr Grundy. What we first did was get out design and cut it into the shape. Then we had to show Mr Grundy our design so he can put the pewter inside so it can dry up into our design we did. The design I did was a horse because I love horses. When the pewter was dried into our design shape we had to use sandpaper to make it smooth and shiny. What I found challenging was trying to smoothen the edges of my design. What I learnt was how the pewter works.

Integrity

I am learning to tell my audience about Integrity.

Today the Student leaders had a leadership program. What we talked about was integrity. We were talking about Integrity because it was part of our leadership programme. First we watched a video of a man talking about developing your integrity. He gave us 3 tips and they were Tell the truth all the time, Be a person who finishes well, and Listen to your conscience. Then our teacher gave us lots of scenarios and we had to answer it and tell our teacher how we will show it showing integrity. What I found challenging was trying to answer the scenarios because I didn't have that many ways to show integrity. What I learnt was different meanings of integrity.

Boxing

I am learning to reflect about boxing.

On Monday we had boxing. Before we started we had to put on our boxing gloves. Then we had to talk about the 3 rules which was Respect, Discipline, and Safety. When we started boxing we went through the things we learnt the week before which was Jab and Jab cross. This week we learnt to more moves which was Hook and Uppercut. First we had to get a buddy and my buddy was Demetrius. Then we had to hit their arm softly 10 times. We had to do it again but with our right hand. After that we learnt how to uppercut. We did that for 30 seconds and then when we finished we had to make it into a combo. What I found challenging was trying to hook because whenever I hook my coach will tell me that my elbow isn't the same height as my hand. What I learnt was to always keep my elbow same height as my hand.

Writing

I am learning to reflect about my writing.

Today in the middle block we had writing. What we did was talk about natural disasters. We had to pick one natural disaster and I picked Earthquake. The template I am using is the S.E.E.E structure. The only things I have done is my Introduction, paragraph one, and half of paragraph two. If you don't know what the S.E.E.E structure mean, it means Statement, Explain, Example, and Effect. Here is the work that I have done so far.

How do Earthquakes happen?

An Earthquake is when the sheets of rocks below earth's surface shakes violently from side to side.

What can an earthquake do?

If you are wondering what an earthquake can do, it can really do bad damages to cities/countries.

For example and earthquake occurs then it makes lots of big buildings collapse.

After the earthquake happens it could sometimes shake the oceanic plates and that

is how Tsunamis could happen.

This means that you should be really careful after you’ve been in an earthquake

because you never know there could be an Tsunami coming.

If you be careful then you have a 50% chance of being alive.

Fun fact Earthquakes doesn’t only make

Tsunamis happen it makes other natural disasters happen.

Where do earthquakes happen?

Earthquakes happen everywhere but the countries that mostly

get hit from earthquakes is the countries that are living around

the Pacific rim like San Francisco, United states, and Tokyo, Japan.

What I found challenging is trying to think about what earthquakes can do. What I think I need to work on next time is to try and do the things my teacher tells me to do because she said to do 2 paragraphs and I only done 1 and a half paragraphs.

Tuakana Teina Day

I am learning to talk about Tuakana Teina day.

On Tuesday It was Tuakana teina day. My class got to buddy up with 2 of the Junior classes. First we buddied up with Room 4 and then we did a activity about the Cook Islands. I buddied up with Demetrius and our Room 4 buddie was Cedric. We had to go around the class and look for clues to solve a puzzle. When Room 5 arrived one I had to split up with Demetrius and Cedric and get a new buddie. My new buddie was Taynah and we had to do the same activities as the other people. After we found all the clues we had to get an A4 paper and glue the puzzles onto it. While we were doing that we had to do another activity called dress me. What you have to do is dress up the boy and girl into their Traditional Cook Island clothes.

Kiwi Sport

I am learning to reflect about Kiwisport.

On Monday after morning tea we had our first lesson for kiwisport for term 3. What we did for Kiwisport was boxing. Our Coach name was Pax. Before we started we talked about other boxers and the rules. What we learnt was how to Jab and Jab cross. After we learnt that we had to get into a rock position. Then we had to get a buddie and practice those moves on them but hit them on their hand. My buddie was Demetrius and he told me to go first. First our Coach said to just jab our buddies hand for 30 seconds and then switch to cross punches. What I found challenging was trying to keep up with my buddie because whenever he punches my hand he goes faster and faster. What I learnt from that KiwiSport session was to try and always keep up with my buddie.
