Kiwi Can

This Wednesday we had Kiwi Can with Mrs. Paige. Our theme is positive relationships and our topic is positive communication. Our focus was tone of voice, which means how we present our voices to show how we feel. Our energiser was fruit salad. Everyone spread out around the classroom, and the leader would call out a fruit which we had to preform the action for. Apple meant we had to move our hips the left, pear meant we had to move our hips to the right, banana meant we had to bend froward, watermelon meant that we had to bend backward. We played a few rounds before coming back to the mat to play our activity. It was called positive and negative role-play. We each we split into 4 groups of 5 and one group had 6. I was partnered with Nyjah, Florence, Giovanni, and Aung Naing. Mrs. Paige gad every team a laminated card which had a scenario written on it, and we had to come up with a positive version of it. Ours said that someone misses a pass and the coach yells at the member. We practised outside our acting, and we would be playing netball but Aung Naing missed the ball. The 'coach' Nyjah, would yell at him for it and the team members (Victoria, Florence, and Giovanni) would help comfort Aung Naing. After organising our act, each group presented our cards and what we had come up with. Another thing would should have added was to get Nyjah to apologise. Everyone did great, and just before leaving the softball inter-school players came back, also teacher supervisors who went. We finished up our session and said Goodbye to Mrs. Paige and Mr. Alapati.

Life at Panmure Bridge School (Silver Respect) | C.A.R.E Award

As the last activity for me to be able to get the Silver Respect Badge, I was to collate a collage about life at PBS. I showcased general ideas of what we use daily at school, including our digital learning, our learn, create, share pedagogy, and C.A.R.E Values. This activity was signed off by our boy sports leader, Julian.

Presentation on a Respect Leader (Silver Respect) | C.A.R.E Award

As one of the last activities for me to earn the Silver Respect Badge, I made a presentation on a Respected Leader. I chose to make it on a Panmure Bridge School student, which is our 2019 head girl Mele. I think this was a good choice because she has many qualities that all fit in of why she is one of the heads and gets respect for her job. This was signed off by our girl Sports Leader, Fui.

Making Dinner for my Family (Silver Respect) | C.A.R.E Award

As an activity to help me earn the Silver respect Badge, I made the meal of dinner for my family. I couldn't have been able to do it if my mom wasn't helping. I think I would've found it easier to make a breakfast than a dinner, because it was pretty challenging. This activity was signed off by our head girl, Mele.

Mrs. Millward Thank You Letter (Silver Respect) | C.A.R.E Award

As another activity to earn the Silver Respect badge, I wrote a thank you letter to a teacher/staff, which was Mrs. Millward. I decided to make it to her because she was my first teacher at Panmure Bridge School and I thought it would be special. I really liked how it turned out, and I hope she gets to see this. This activity was signed by our head girl, Mele.

Research on Aretha Franklin Respect (Silver Respect) | C.A.R.E Award

As an activity to earn the Silver Respect badge, I researched Aretha Franklin's song "Respect". The song became an anthem for civil rights and feminism and originally written by a man named Otis Redding. You can find out the story behind her song through my presentation. This activity was signed by our girl maniakalani leader, Nyjah.

Multiplying: 10's, 100's, 1000's

This week in Math, we figured out the trick of multiplying in tens, hundreds, and thousands. We then created posters, to show our learning. We understand that 'x' means groups of, and that adding the zero's can also be another way to get us the answer in multiplying. After reading how you can do this, try answering the 3 bottom questions if you can understand.
