ESOL 321RIQ

 Hi,

In ESOL we learned about 321 RIQ and what it means so 321 RIQ ( 3 means 3 things you recall from the activity that you have done, the 2 means insight and you have to wright 2 new things that you have learnt in the lessons that you have been in, 1 means Questions put at least 1 question that you want to ask. R means Recall, I means Insight, Q means Questions.

The 3 things that we have done in ESOL this year we have played a game to remember our names and at the same time introducing ourselves to each other. How we played the game we played the game by each of us is having a turn and say our name then say a word that matches the first letter of your name like  Dex and you have to say a word that starts with letter D like Drumming and say something that you liked. Then you have to put it together like in a short sentence and say I am Drumming Dex and likes Drums. If you are the second person you have to say your name and the letter that starts with your first name and one thing that you like after that you have to say what the things that the person said that is next to you and repeat what she or he said. 

The second thing that we have done in ESOL was writing a 200 words or more and we have to write something about blogging and why it is important or un important. Does it helped you improved your writing and also your English writing that was the second thing that we have done. 

The third thing that we have done is learning about the 321 RIQ at first I did not know what it means but when the teacher has explained what it means it was familiar so I know what they were for.

Gymnastic Term 4

 Hi,

In Hurumanu 5 we were trying out different types of Gymnastic apparatus so the six apparatus that we use is Trampoline,Beam, Parallel Bars, Bar, Floor/Mat,Mini Trampoline.

On the tramp people can jump around and do some flip such as Back Flip and Front Flip and also other skills. 

At the Beam section you can balance around were there is only one path that is about 4 metres long and 20 cm wide so you have to walk across that path. You can also play around on Beam because you can stop and balance at one foot.

 In the Parallel Bars you can walk with your hands while pushing your self up and you can also walk backwards with your hands or tuck jumps, leg lifts.

Bar on the bar you can circle up on the bar, roll of the bar and other things you can do at the bar.

At the Floor/ Mat section you can do flips like front flip, Back flip, Handstand, Forward roll and other skills. 

On the Mini trampoline you can run then jump and while you are in the air you can do some styles like do a Front flip then stand at your feet or do a Back flip then land on your feet you can also do this things like do the Micheal Jordan Logo and hold it for long as you can. 

The Bully

 Hi,

In Drama we have to write something about what it feels like to be a Bully so I actually don't know what it feels like to be a bully so this is just the things that I already know. The bully feels so good when they bully other people younger than them and hurting them like physically hurting them like punching them so hard and making them cry. Or the bully is just talking verbally to the victim to make them feel bad for themselves so the bully is feeling good they are having fun and feeling so tough.    

Wananga

 Hi,

In Wananga we had a year 9 leader that will teach us something like what my leader did he taught us how to kick a ball properly and how to kick curve. The things that went well in our lesson was following the leader's instructions and trying the things that he taught us.  

Hurumanu 2

 Hi,

In Hurumanu we did freeze frame and the teacher took a photo of us doing the frame so me and my friends did a bullying freeze frame. So what we did in our freeze frame is showing the emotion of the person and what is happening to them. You can see at the photo at the bottom that the bully is having fun and the person getting bullied is getting angry to the bully because he got punch. The person who is trying to stop the bully is having a hard time because the bully is bigger than the guy who is stopping him. We learned this kinds of techniques in drama so this is what we learned at Hurumanu 2.
