Tech

Today was our second session of graphics for term 4. We didn't have Mr Pineda in so we had Mr McKenzie-Brown who is an English teacher in Tamaki College. Today since Mr Pineda wasn't here we were to finish off coloring and drawing our charity boxes. My charity box is based on helping the homeless so I have phrases such as Donate, Help the homeless,  and Please donate $1. I've also added a home/shelter which symbolizes that homeless people need shelter. I've nearly finished coloring and going to put together my charity box

Shake out

Today is national Shakeout this activity could be used throughout NZ. This helps people understand what you do in a natural disaster called earthquakes and they are a very destructive disaster. Like it destroys hundreds of thousands of dollars and can sometimes kill a lot of people where the disaster had occurred. In our school, we did the drill on the 18th of October 2018 at 9:30am. We had to follow the procedure like drop cover and hold they are the three steps to avoid getting extremely injured.

HIIT

Today was the last week for HITT (High Intense Interval Training) program. For the last 15 weeks, we have been doing HIIT twice every week, we have had lots of rotations through the exercises and found our favorites. This training program is for us to increase our heart rate by Pau te hau which in Maori means getting puffed. The 4 exercises we did was tap steps, push-ups, star jumps, and sit-ups. For these rotations we did the 4 sets of each. We also had 20 seconds to do each exercise. We got an extra 10 seconds for a little break to regain our energy.

Exponents

Today for maths we were learning about exponents. I found this activity easy because it was not difficult to understand the meaning. I completed a question sheet that had exponent problems. Afterward, I made a DLO on how to use exponents.

Kiwi Can

Today for Kiwi Can the came up to our class and we had played a game called beat maker it was like wink murderer because there was one person in the middle and everyone else on the outside in a circle and then miss lily had chosen someone to start making the beat and then the person had to choose who was making the beat and they got 3 chances and they would have to get it right within through 3 picks or else they lose. Then we played GKQ witch is there are 2 people who stand up and get asked a question and if they get it right they move on but if they get it wrong they have to sit down and the person who got it right will move on to the next person in the circle and they would go on and on until they lose and then they have to sit down.

Sentences using colons

today we did a challenge on colons to see what we knew about them and I got it right and I had a lot of fun because I found this a bit challenging for me because I'm not that good at using colons because I'm not sure where they go in a sentence. but today I learned that they go in front of a list and when you ar4e giving someone an option on what to do.

VR study

Today we had fun because we did a Vr study and I found it fun because we got to learn about the first made bridge and that you had to pay a little bit fo money to cross because the money would help them cover the cost on the bridge and that we had to build a dam and drain all the water out so then they could build it and not have any water that they are swimming in and I learned that before the bridge was made that they used a small boat to cross the river.at the beginning we had to take a test and for the test we had to walk in a straight line and then once we were done that we had to go over to the other side and we put on glasses and he showed us a book that had pictures in them and it would be like wearing 3D glasses because the picture would come out at you and you had to name what the picture was but I think that for that test I did well because I think I got all of the words right.
I would like to thank Evon and her team of people who came out and gave us this learning opitunaty and thank you to Miss Anderson and Mrs. Kirkpatrick for making this possible for LS2.

What are sense verbs. Test

Today we did a small test on how and what senses are. How do we use them properly I ended up getting two wrong and the rest right I thought that I would get all of them right. I was wrong and got 2 wrong. but I changed it and did it again and got all right.

Reading - The lighting thief Percy Jackson

Today I have been reading a book called Percy Jackson the lighting thief I think that in the movie there are a lot of things that they don't put in the movie but they have in the book which I  think that they should put every in the movie and not have anything missed out because I think that the people who are watching the movie will miss out on everything that happened in the book I also worked with Tiava and we had a very good working second because she was doing her work on our DLO andIi was finishing reading a couple more pages so I wouldn't be so far behind.

Why is sleep so important?

Today we have created a DLO on why sleep is so important it is important because we all need a specific amount of sleep to stay healthy and in other countries, there are people who don't have a home there is one guy who sleeps on a set of tires.

Netball - Zane

Today we were playing a game of Netball and we had warm-ups it was a game of golden child and then we played a proper game of netball and I thought that it was fun because the teams tied up and I thought that it was super fun to do because at the end we played a game and it was like who would win at being the best at grabbing the ball and I started off and I was winning because I had won agist 5 people then I lost to Jeremiah because he got 19 people and won and I came in 2 because I got 5 out of 19.

Hiit - Zane

Today for HIIT we did 4 sets of squats, high knees, tap step and star jumps. I thought that this would be harder than it was but for me this time it felt pretty easy. Thank you to Lyric, Tiava, Mataio, and Affonso for leading us in the activity and thank you to Mrs. Anderson for cheering us on.

Maths - Zane

Today for maths we did maths on a family having a party and there were three questions that we answered and then we chose one and this was that one that we have chosen

How to use an analogue clock

Do you wish to learn how to tell analog time?  Today I am going help you learn how to tell the analog time. There are a couple of things you need to know about the clock before we get started. There is one shorthand and that hand tells you the hour and then there is a long hand and that it the minute hand and sometimes there is one more hand which is smaller then all the rest and that is the second hand. The last part is the face which is the front with all the numbers on it.

When we are looking at a clock and it says that that the shorthand is one the three  and the small hand is on the one that means the time is 3:30 but if the shorthand is in the middle of three and four  that means that you go up from the hand and that means that it would be 3:00.

When you’re looking at the clock you will see that there are numbers ranging from 1 - 12 and in between each of the numbers are little lines that represent 1 minute and in between each of the big numbers there are 5 little lines which if you have the very little hand it will stand for the seconds and they also stand for the minutes.

I hope that you have learnt how to use an analogue  clock which in life can be very helpful if you don't know how to read it because in your office there could be only one clock which is an analogue clock which then this information would come in really big help.
