Technology At School Argument

L.I: Having a point of view and constructing an argument.
L.I: Structure of an Argument.
Today for writing we made videos showing If we disagree or agree with the subject - Technology in School. Sakina, Nyjah and I agreed with having technology in school and Jack, Julian and Alex disagreed. We made the videos by going on a site called Flip Grid where you could also insert images. These were just hypothetical which means not real and we were doing this to practise a the doing an argument. We already planned what we were going to say on a google doc so when it started to recorded we could go back to the tab and read it. It had to be a minute long. Click the link to watch mine and my groups arguments.
I learnt how to build up an argument and what need to have a good argument

Kiwi Sport

Today LS1 had kiwi sport Run, Jump Throw with Andy on the school netball court. We still are focusing on our Jumping skills. The first thing we played was Volcanoes and Valleys. There was a bunch of yellow and white cones set out on the court and we were split into 2 teams Valleys and the Volcanoes. The cones were randomly put upside down or the correct way, the Valleys had to flip as much of the cones that were the correct way to the upside down way and the Volcanoes had to flip as much of the cones the upside down way to the correct way. Then we would swap the rolls around. Then we learnt about the scissor kick technique for when you do high jump. To do this this technique you need to kick you legs up twice high in the air, face you feet up and bend your knees slightly. You need to run up fast and do the scissor kick quickly so you can push of and have more speed and power. We practised this by jumping over plastic yellow poles suppose to be practise high jump poles. After a few tries we could tell Andy to adjust the sticks however we wanted, high, low anything.

Kiwi Can

Today LS1 went down to room 7 for kiwi can with Ms Latoya. We were still focusing self control, self discipline and resilience. The first game we activity we did was called hand circle. We had to get into a circle then lay down on our stomachs. Ms Latoya instructed to put out hand out. Then taking your right hand and putting it over the persons hand on the right side of you. Then putting our left hand over the persons hand who was on the left of you. Ms Latoya would either start left or right. For example we will say she started left she would tap her left hand then the person next to her, they had to take their left hand and tap it then etc until it went all around the circle then back to Ms Latoya If you did it incorrect you had to put one hand away. If someone tapped there hand twice you had to go the other direction. Then we played Bip, Bop, Bounce which was a game we have played before in Kiwi Can. We had to get into a circle once again and Ms Latoya had to stand in the center then point to someone and sat Bip, Bop, Bounce. Before Ms Latoya says Bounce you have to say bang before her. If your to late you had to sit down on the matt which meant you were out. If Ms Latoya didn't complete saying the whole thing to you but you still said bang that means you had to sit out. Then if she wasn't pointing to you but still said bang then you had to sit down.The chant for this theme is - Keep it real, Keep it true, Self control will see you through.

Blog Commenting

Today I commented on Ellenora's blog. I commented on her Hauora Post. It was very well done. I thought she had a nice simple but detailed sentence of what Physical meant in Hauora meaning and the Maori way to say it which is Taha Tinana. I liked the pictures she inserted to go with it. I had to do the same task as her so I knew what this blog post was about. 1 thing is that she missed out the Learning Intention which is probably a big part in a blog post.

Tables Conga

Today for a Maths can do I played Tables Conga. Tables conga is a game where you can learn to find times tables in order. I played 4 times tables. For example if you were doing the 4 times tables like me, you have to find the 4 times tables in order starting from 4 then 8 and etc. You have to do this before the grey x touches you or your line of time tables. If it does you have to restart. In this game you can practice your times tables and still have a enjoy yourself too. This game was really fun and I enjoyed so you might too, click the link to play this game!

Raz kids - The Moon Bowl

 Today I went on Raz Kids and read the book - The Moon Bowl. This book is about a princess who wanted to marry this prince. She told her father/ the king and he decided that the prince would have to get the "lady"on the moon to tip the bowl which poured water and there for it would rain on earth because over there it hasn't rained in a while. The prince also wished to marry the princess so he did what he was told. When he arrived at the moon he seen an old man with a stick drawing in the dust. He said he was drawing the stars so he could put them in order because that was his job. The prince asked the old man where was the lady who tips the moon bowl. The old man stopped for a while until speaking once again. He denied knowing about knowing where she was nor who she is but seemed to know so much about the moon bowl.The prince starting thinking he was the one who pours the moon bowl. When the prince crouched down the old man hopped on so it was as if it was a piggyback then the old man magically his stick they arrived under the giant moon bowl. The old man also led him to the rim of the bowl where the prince wanted to go. The prince asked the man how could he tip the bowl, the old man said just with another wave of my stick, so then when he did so it poured it slowly down. After that the prince for sure knew that it was the old man job, he was the one he tipped the bowl.The old man got mad which made the bowl to shake causing him to fall inside and the prince to fall out onto the ground and so did the old mans stick. The prince used the stick to get back at the kings palace.The king was very happy with the prince so he allowed him to finally marry his daughter/ the princess.

Possum Poster

L.I: to separate fact from opinion.
L.I: to identify the main ideas in a text.
Today for reading we made posters about possums showing if we would rather keep them or not and why. I made google draw and inserted some pictures to go with it. I think that possums should be killed because they are eating our native plants and animals and they are able to spread diseases. I learnt this by researching about possums and found pictures online which were labeled for reuse and put them on. During the task I learnt a lot of facts about possums like how there are about 30 million of them in New Zealand.
