Kiwi Can

This week we had Kiwi Can with Ms. Pee ho, and Ms Page. Our new theme is Integrity, and our topic focus is honesty. Integrity means to do the right thing even when no one is looking, and honesty takes
a big role in that. Telling the truth betters you and others, even if it is hard to get out. To get us warmed up, we first played three sports. The actions were shooting a basketball, karate kick, and fists. This was fun, but we only had a few rounds of it. Our main activity of the day was role playing. Whatever our idea was, we had to include showing integrity somehow. My group was Chavda, Florence, Pua, Neveah, and Jonathan, and our idea we were given window. Our acting was about 4 people tossing a ball to each other, but one throws it too aggressively and causes to break the window of another persons house. The owner came out and asked who did it, but to only receive lies from all but 1. Jonathan owns up to his mistakes, and everything was okay. It was interesting watching everyone else role plays for their idea that they were given, and I learned that our truth affects others around us. We finished our Kiwi Can session with a game of GKQ (General Knowledge).

This week LS1 had kiwi can in room 7 with Mr Matt and Ms Lily. First everyone got into 4 lines. Our theme is integrity and our new topic is accountability. Accountability is having honesty and taking ownership. Accountability also means when someone is able to count on you. First we played our energizer which was snatch the cone. For this game we had to stand up. Line one and two had to face each other and the person who  was in line with you, then that was your partner. Mr Matt set cones in front of each partner and they had to space out away from it, like take 1 step back further. Ms Lily would say some words but cat was the special word. When she said cat, you had to try and be the first one to snatch the cone. If you both got it at the same time and it was a draw, you had to have another round. If you got the cone and your partner didn't, that means they lost and had to sit out then you had to find a new partner to play with and the games would carry on. In the last round there were 3 people left with only one cone for one of them to be the first to get it. The last people standing were Angelica, Sakina, and Sandra. As soon as Ms Lily said "cat," Sandra quickly got it and one the game. We came back on the mat in a circle and talked covered what accountability means and what is taking responsibility for your action and facing the consequences. Consequences is kinda of like facing something after you did something wrong or bad because you deserve it. The game we played this week was hand soccer. This was the same one we played last week as well. For this game Ms Lily numbered us off 1 to 2. Group 1 lined up on one side of the room and group 2 went on the other side. We all numbered our selves and if the groups were uneven then one person from the other team switched. I was in group 1. There were 12 people in each group. When Ms Lily called a or more number/s then they had to run, tap the cone and try to smack and roll the ball into the goal. There were no goalies allowed in this game. In the end, group 2 one with 7 points and were at the bottom with 5 points. We came back and added the scores for this week. Our total was 24 points which is 1 away from 25 which is the maximum amount. We said goodbye to Mr Matt and Ms Lily and headed back to the classroom.

This week LS1 had kiwi can with Mr Matt and Ms Lily in room 7. This week our theme is integrity and our new topic is accountability. Accountability is when someone can count on you. Honesty and responsibility all fits into accountability. Responsibility is taking ownership of something and honesty is telling the truth. First we played our energizer which was shark attack. I thought this game was very fun. There were two people that were the "sharks" and had to hold a pool noodle stick. Everyone else were the fishes. Sometimes Mr Matt would tell you to do something like hope on one leg. There were 4 hula-hoops that we had to go into when Mr Matt yelled "SHARK ATTACK". If you went in before that you were automatically out. If you got tagged with the pool noodle from one of the sharks then you had to sit out. You couldn't push anybody already in the hula-hoop and if there was not enough space you had to go somewhere else. After shark attack we came back on the mat and talked about responsibility, owner ship, and honesty. Then we played the activity which was hand soccer. There was a ball that was set in the middle. We would be playing in boys vs girls. The girls went on one said of the room and the boys went on the other. Then we had to number our selves. In each team there were 14. There were two cones on each side that were the goals. When Ms Lily called out a number, the number from each group of the boys and girls had to run and tap the cone on their side and use one hand to hit the ball into the goal. This game was really fun and after a few rounds Ms Lily started to say multiple numbers to go at a time. In the end we had GKQ which is general knowledge questions. In the end of the day we added up the points at got 25 which is the most we could get and 5 for each box.

This week we had kiwi can in room 7 with Ms Lily and Mr Matt. Our theme is still Integrity and
our topic is role models. When we came into the class room, we had to make 5 lines. The first game we played was Mouse and Cat. We had to stand up in our lines and lift our arms out and still looking straight ahead at Ms Lily. There was a Cat and a mouse that Ms Lily chose and that cat had to use a pool noodle to catch the cat and tag them with it. If Ms Lily said "left" we had to turn left, and if she said "right" we had to turn right. The cat would chase the mouse going through everyone, we were like trappers. They could go under us, but not straight through us. Our hands had to be connected and lined up with the people in the next line that was in the same order. We had three or two rounds of this. Then the girls and boys got into separate circles. Ms Lily chose someone from the boys to be the cat or the mouse and someone to from the girls to be the cat or mouse. The boy had to go into the girls circle and the girl had to go into the boys circle. The people in the circle had to hold hands together. The mouse had to go around and try to catch the cat and the people in the circle had to lift their hands up to let them in the circle or out the circle. Next we came back to the mat and talked about role models and some of our role models. We also talked about something good we did and why we did it. Then some people got up and acted like some of their role models. Some people found it very funny. Lastly we played role models. The girls lined up on one side and the boys lined up on the other. Ms Lily or Mr Matt chose 1 person from the boys and girls and we Ms Lily chose a celebrate those two people had to act out. Then Mr Matt played a song and we had to walk to it. Lastly Ms Lily added up the points. In total we got 16. Lastly we said goodbye to the kiwi can leaders and went back to the class.

Kiwican

This week LS1 had kiwican in room 7 with Mr Matt and Ms Lily. Our theme is integrity and our topic is role models. Role models are people we look up to and who inspire us. Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is looking. First we had our energizer. For our energizer we played bang so we had to get in a circle. To play this game, someone stood in the middle of the circle. They had to say someones name and that person had to duck down and the two people beside that person had to fake shot one another saying bang. Who ever said it first was the winner and the person who lost sat down. This went on until the last two people and to settle it there was the story. The two people had their backs against eachother while someone told a story with a key word. When you hear the person say the keyword you had to turn around and say bang. We had 1 or 2 rounds of bang. In the last round the last two people were Sakina and Matthew, and Sakina won. We came back on the mat and talked about role models and how we can be a role model. Today we would be learning about role models. Then we had our activity. The name of this activity was tootyfruity. For this game we also had to get back in a circle. Banana meant turn around, Orange meant ump back, and apple meant take a jump forward. When Mr Matt said one of them we had to do it and if we got it wrong we had to sit in the middle. Some times he said multiple of them and we had to repeat the rountine of steps. Lastly we had  GKQ which was general knowledge question then added up the score points. The total was 22 again like last week. We need to work on our respect for next week.

Kiwi Can

This week LS1 had kiwi can in room 7 with Mr Matt and Ms Lily. This week have a new topic which is being a good role model. Today we had to get into rows going horizontal instead of lines going vertical. First we had energizer. Today our energizer was a game called doggy doggy. For this game the boys and girls were separated into different halves. 1 person had to sit on a chair and where a blind fold. A pen would be placed in between their legs and their job was to protect it with a pool stick whilst everyone else tries to get it. I thought the game was fun but difficult because my strategy was to be fast or get low but the person in the chair would would wag the pool stick high low and all over the place. I was able to successfully get the pen one time. After some rounds the kiwi can leaders sat in the chair and we had to get it. For the last rounds everyone played together and our teacher sat in the chair. Next we came back in our rows and discussed with the kiwi can leaders what it means to be a role model and what is a role model. A role model is some one we look up to because they inspire us. We also talked about some role models. A lot of peoples role models are their parents. My mom is one of my role models because she is independent and supports for me and my siblings on her own. Also because she cares about me and is unique. Next we played an activity called who's missing. The activity is a bit self explanatory. We had to try and see how well we knew our classmates. Everyone would close their eyes and when you were tapped by one of the kiwi can leaders you had to leave the room. Then everyone could open their eyes again and search to find who was missing. The class was able to guess all the people who were missing. I thought the activity was very fun and I really enjoyed it. We could have 3 guesses before Mr Matt open the door and revealed who was missing. Lastly the kiwi can leaders gave us scores and added the numbers up. The total for this week was 22. We need to work and respect. Finally we headed back to class after saying goodbye to Mr Matt and Ms Lily with our goodbye chant.

Kiwi Can

Today we had Kiwi can in room 7 with Miss Lily and Mr Matt. Our new them for this term is integrity. Integrity means doing the right thing when no one is looking. Our topic for this week is making good decisions. Making good decisions is when you do the right thing or what is best. First we had energiser and we played 21. We had to get in a circle and played with a ball. We had to pass the ball around in the circle and count to 21 starting from 1. Who ever has the ball in their hands at 21 was out. We have played this game before. Sooner or later we played with 2 balls. Then we came back on the mat and sat in 3 lines. We talked about what integrity  means and making good decisions. Our new chant for this week is - "Kiwi can says - good choices are not a test, good choices are made by the best." Next we played terminator tag. For this game everyone was in and we had to try and tag each other. If you got tagged, you had to sit down on the mat where you were and when your tagger was tagged then you could stand back up and play again. We had about 3 rounds before coming back on the matt. Before GKQ (General knowledge questions) we discussed how we could make good decisions and when we make good decisions. We also talked about some bad decisions we make. Lastly we had GKQ. We had to sit in a circle and 4 people from the circle in order went. The buzzer was bacaw. We did our goodbye chant and lined up outside ready to go back to class.
