Issac Grien

Hi,
So Last week of school in Monday Issac Grien wen't to our school and shared the story of his travelling from different part of the world to a different part again. So he just used something similar to a boat and a kayak. So he bought a lot of foods and other things to survive in the middle of the ocean he also brought a bucket to use as a toilet. So in his boat there was a little bedroom where he can sleep so he took about that and what it was like to be travelling with a boat.

So after he talk about his experience we were going back to class in  the exit door the teacher gave some cards from Issac Grien. He also bought his boat to school so he could show it to us. I also hope that you like my blog post.

Holiday Break

Hi
In the Holidays we were at home and just cleaning some parts of the house and also helping my mom wash the dishes. Me and my brother also wash all of our clothes and our parents clothes so after we wash the clothes we folded them then put it inside the closet. Then we watch a series in Netflix so we have watch the Seven Deadly sins but we watched the movie of it.

So what happen to the movie is that there captain got stuck in the sky thing because they were trying to catch a sky fish to cook for dinner. After we watched the movie I did some homework and I only finished four of the vocabulary then the next week in Sunday night I did some home work and it is reading activity and I finished all of the activity. So that's all I have done in the school Holidays.

Orana Park

Hi,
On Monday we went to Orana Park. So first we have waited inside the entry of the school for the bus so we are closer to the outside. We can also see the bus through the window. So we were in a groups so the groups was 1 and 2 so I was in the group 2 so I got splited with some of my friends and some of my friends were with me. When the bus came in the school the group one went first to get in the bus then a few minutes the group 2 was heading to the bus. Few people went to the van with a teacher driving. Then we got inside the bus and sit on the sites inside the bus and we were inside the bus for a few minutes and we finally got off the bus. We waited outside the gate of the Orana Park and waited for the teachers that leads us were to go inside the Orana Park and also talk about the expectations inside the Orana Park.

When we got inside the Orana Park we went to the Meerkats and took a picture of them because they were so cool but they are quite small but cute. After we saw the Meerkats we walk to the then past the

playground at the Orana Park.  Then we keep on walking until we got to the river were ducks swims and that is were we got splited into our groups. But the teachers also talk about what we don't do to the animals. After that talking we went inside the little house were the reptiles lives and others like frogs that lives there they were camouflaging because there skin is green and were they live is green because leaves are green and also the frogs.

When we were finish at the little house we went to the spider monkey the spider monkeys is lot like a monkey because the shape of their body and also the skin. So spider monkeys are on a little Island and that is were they live and there is a water around there home that's why they don't get away from the park. There homes has lots of ropes because they like climbing. They ate grass from the home were they live because all over their home has a grass and its actually look like a hill field. But they weren't there because they are still inside their house and we just got to look at the spider monkeys on a window.

After we look at the spider monkey we when to the Lions they were actually pretty big and the teacher said that they grown more than they thought. So there was 9 Lions all together in the Orana Park and
when we saw them one lion was roaring and it was actually pretty loud but. After we saw the spider monkeys we saw the springbook and one of them was closer so we got a closer look and the springbook was digging.

When we walk we got to the tiger and the tiger wasn't there maybe it was in the cage.

Digital Tech

Hi,
In Digital Tech we have to write a reflection about scratch and sphero. So first I have write about the scratch. Scratch is a coding game in scratch you can make your own game and also play your classmates scratch that they have made. Sphero and scratch is kind of similar because in scratch you code it and you put the blocks to control the character. In sphero you also use a block to control the robot then it will move by itself. If they ask me what I prefer I would pick sphero because it is a robot and you can make the block to make it move like on scratch and also you can control it with a joystick.
So in sphero we use an Ipad and we can't put the link in our blog because it is in an ipad.

What is scratch- Scratch is a software or computer programme. In Scratch you can make games and animations.
What is sphero- Sphero is a robot that is sphere and you can play with it you can connect your ipad in the robot.

What do they have in common- Scratch and sphero are similar because they have the coding.
Which app do you prefer to us why- I prefer to choose sphero because it is fun and also easy to use.
How can you use that app to solve your problem- Scratch can help make a work of an animation bot like sphero.

Hurumanu PE

Hi,
in the last few weeks we have been doing hurumanu PE. So we are practising how to teach our classmates how to play basket ball so each team has a different kinds of sports so they also have to teach us what sport they are doing. So before our team do some practise we have to do a maths in maths we have been measuring the field and also figuring out how many buckets of paint we need to pain the whole field. So in our groups there is six of us and we half it again and there is one only three of us now so the three of us trying to figure out what is the answer to the questions.

After the maths the second half of Hurumanu PE we practise the Basketball that we are going to teach. So first we have to practice our warm up then the drills so our warm up. So we started our drills so our drills was layups and shooting from the free pointer. Also different drills when the second half is almost done we have played a big game of basketball and when we started the bell ring and we did not get to play that long.

After that week we have played bench ball the team french fries teach us how to play bench ball so first we did some warm up the warm up was star jump, high knees, sprints, sneak up on granny. When we played sneak up on granny I tried my best to be the granny and a run as fast as I could when the granny isn't looking and I manage to touch the granny and I become granny. It was fun for me when I become granny.

After the warm we have played bench ball so first the year 7 vs year 7 then the other side is year 8 vs year 8. So I am a year 7 so I played in the year 7 after a few minutes our team has lost in the game of bench ball but it was still fun. When we have come back from lunch we were versing all of the year 8 and there is all of the year 7 also. It was fun because the game was so big and the bench was long and we have more space. There was no outline so it was more fun. When they passed the ball to me I throw it as hard as I can to get it closer to my classmates beside the bench. We were trying our best to win but a few minutes later we lost to the year eights because they are so good at playing bench ball.

Here is a photo of us playing bench ball I hope you like the blog post that I have done.
