Invertebrates in the Moana

Our inquiry Kaupapa this term is Te Moana. For our lesson this week we were learning to describe sea invertebrates (creatures with no backbone) in Tangaroa’s waters. One of the activities was to identify an invertebrate and draw it.  The tamariki drew an octopus to share.

Reversy Percy Challenge

One day our teacher was telling us about how her favourite lollies were reversed around. The famous candy that originated from United Kingdom in 1992, the one and only, Percy pigs. She was telling us about how the brand had changed it around, switching her favourite part of it to the smaller part which was the ears. Then she came up with the idea of reversing iconic fairytales, which would eventually turn into a fun, collaborative and significant activitiy. The first step was to pick a good and reliable partner and after we had done that it was time to draw the original story on paper  in scenes and then reverse it on another paper with scenes again. Thirdly was making the reversed story digitally on a Chromebook, this was the important and hard part. Me and my partner had picked The Ugly duckling and reversed that story into The Beautiful Duckling. There was also rules that applied to the digitally created one which was: No tracing, no copying, inspiration only and working fairly and equally, not just one person does the work. When we had finished our slideshow of The Beautiful duckling, we showcased it to the class, basically like a presentation as well as reading the storyline. The end was quite unexpected so make sure to check it out, anyways, this activity was very fun and creative and I really hope we will get another one of these again.

Swimming – The Last Day

Malo e lelei readers,

On Friday we had our last lesson for swimming. I was so excited because the first thing we did was diving in on the deep end. Only nine of us came that were in my group. So we split in to one group of four and one group of five. In was in the group of four and we were the first to jump! We have to stand up straight and put our arms around us and jump in by taking one step. After we dived in we had to get back up and float. Once we were close enough to the other team they would reach out pool noodles for us to grab onto and they would pull us in. The team that was not jumping yet was practicing saving us. When they had saved us we swapped and they  jumped. I loved jumping and all the big splashes when we dive. After that we went to the adults pool and practiced diving there. When we dived in we had to do the same thing but we had to bend our knees because this pool wasn’t as deep so we wouldn’t hurt our legs. Once we dived in we had to swim back up and float through two hoops.

I had a lot of fun on the last swimming lesson.

Have you ever tried diving before?

I hope you enjoyed this post.

Bye bye readers, see you soon.

Is It Wrong To Fight?

😡Is fighting wrong🥊?

 

Put your hands up if you think it’s right to fight, if you did PUT IT DOWN! But anyways kia ora my name is Natan, and I am here to tell you why it is and isn’t right to fight.

 

Firstly, it’s not right to fight because anger does not solve the problem, it only starts more problems that goes far, to even situations with weapons and we do not want that! If you resolve the problem by using force and anger that just makes everything WORST. Do you think Te Whiti and Tohu sorted it out by going to war? NO they invited them in and went peacefully without war. The thing you should do is ask a teacher to help with the situation so everyone is safe and sound and no one gets hurt  .

 

Secondly, it’s right to fight but only for defense, because if someone push there is no reason to fight, if someone accidentally ran into you, there is no reason to fight, but if someone is hitting you nonstop you have the right to defend yourself by blocking the hit, running away or the last resort by hitting back only if you can’t do the other two!.

 

Lastly, it is not right to fight because everyone has a right to be safe, even the person who is starting it. If someone is trying to fight you DO NOT want the anger to take over, because if someone gets accidentally hit that will cause even more problems that will lead to getting stood down or even getting expelled and no one wants that. That’s why you should always stay calm and not just choose anger to resolve because someone could get hurt.

 

As you can see from my point of view we shouldn’t fight because someone could get hurt for no reason, everyone has a right to be safe and it is right only for defending in the worst scenarios.

Centuries later, the sick Queen of Corona is healed by the flower and gives birth to Princess Rapunzel, whose golden hair inherits the flower’s magic and we reversed the story.

Reversey Purcey

Today in LS2, We made an animation, called “The Three Little Wolfs And The Big Neutral Spider” or known as “Reversey Purcey” changes the usual fairy tale story by showing the relationship between animals in a new way. Instead of clear good guys and bad guys, it focuses on three clever wolves and a big spider that doesn’t take sides. The story uses role swaps and unclear roles to explore ideas about being neutral, sharing power, and living together in a story that feels familiar but is told differently.

Fighting is number 1 WRONG

😡It is wrong❌ to fight 😡

My name is alayna and i am here to teach you a lesson people!My topic is no fighting The reason why is because fighting causes loss of trust,unfriendliness, emotional close ups, emotional break ups and left out families also put your hand up if fighting is not right if you don’t put your hand up and put it up because fighting is not right . If people do not fight the things people will have and do are trustworthy,emotional joy outbursts, and hanging out. WE NEW ZALENDERS SHOULD BE PEACEFUL like Te Whiti and Tohu!!!!!!!!!!💕

 

DON’T HURT PEOPLE!!!!

 

after this writing I WANT to not hear ANYTHING about the word: Fight because people could get seriously hurt like imagine someone punching your nose so hard that it breaks and you get a nosebleed 🩸👃 THAT IS SERIOUS👀

 

 third I THINK THAT FIGHTING SHOULD BE BANNED UNLESS YOUR DEFENDING YOUR SELF DON’T BE A BULLY or you are very rude 

 

LOOK AT The INJURED KIDS THAT GET HURT  THEY WERE BULLIED AND GOT CHASED AWAY AND GOT BAD INJURIES do you really want to be a bully? They also could get hurt like nosebleeds, broken bones bleeding not breathing. SO DON’T HURT ANYONE and do you want to be the reason that kids have died?

As you can see I told you everything I could think of. THE END 

DON’T FIGHT ONLY DO IT IF YOU HAVE TO DEFEND YOURSELF IF ITS NOT DEFENDING OR  OTHER REASONS AND YOU HURT LITTLE KIDS I AM CALLING  THE POLICE!

READING CREATE TASK!! TITLE: What Does “Volunteer” Mean?ヽ(。◕o◕。)ノ.

hey guys! I am Joey!

today I am sharing this create task with you!! It’s about: what does the word ” volunteer” mean? ( or you could know the topic from the title🙂)  the word “volunteer” means you volunteer something like a competition or a performance or some kind of party for now. but in the past, the meaning of “volunteer” is slightly different as now! in the olden days, volunteer means ” of free will”. so it is slightly different right? the create task I choose is to make a doc or whatever then you need to type about the words your doing like for example the word you chose is “emergency” your typing need to include: 

  1. the words are?
  2. what does it mean in the olden days and nowadays?
  3. where did it come from?
  4. how has the word change?
  5. make a connection!
