P.E At School

                                      P.E At School

At the moment, my class been participating in P.E every single day. If you didn't know P.E is a short  version for saying physical education. P.E is very good for your mental health. P.E is one of those things that there is NO restrictions on when you have to stop, e.g: you can do as much P.E as you ever could imagine, as long as your body doesn't explode with pain. 

 P.E can be all sorts of things, e.g: Sport, Running, Games, just anything that is out doors and that is physical for your body. I love being in the outdoor fresh air, especially with my friends & Family. 

Normally after you participate in anything physical things, you need to stretch your mussels afterwards. Just so they don't get to painful for the next day / week. If your mussels get tight, that means you need to give them a good stretch. That will make you be able to do P.E the next day without any of your body hurting. 

I reckon you should start / do P.E everyday or week. Or whenever you have any free time. Being out in the fresh air makes you feel fresh and good ready for your day ahead.

P.E In Lockdown 2.0

                                          P.E In Lockdown 2.0

At the moment most of New Zealand is in level three lockdown. That means you can go out of your house for P.E and others reasons. At the moment my family and I have been getting up to a lot of P.E and sport. 

Yesterday we travelled to wheat stone road. As I was biking up the big hills it felt like our legs were burning. I love to be in the fresh air. Finally we got to the top of one of the big hills. I stared down at the bottom of the hill. I could see a lot. 

When we made it to the top, There was such a good view of the whole of gisborne. 

Soon enough it was time to go down all of the hills. That is my favourite part. I zoomed behind my brother still staying on track. My brakes squeaked as I pulled them tight when I flew down the hills. I went down one last hill then I was at the bottom. I was very proud.

Online Workshops/Teacher Groups

Online workshops - Teacher Groups

As you know that at the moment the whole of New Zealand is in alert level 4 lockdown. That means no- one can go to school or work, only if you are an essential worker like police, nerce, doctor, firefighter & Ambulance person... and more. Most people still do school but just online with their teachers. I like lockdown so far because we get heaps of time to do our work that needs to be done.

I prefer to do my work at school with my friends but thats okay that we are at home because it's just like a bigger holiday with school work. At Least we can be in our bubble with my lovely family.

Everyday I go onto my class sight and go to the workshop on my level. It is very different online compared to every day school life, but thats okay. I still enjoy the workshops / teacher groups.

Lockdown learning

 Lockdown learning 

As you know at the moment the whole country New Zealand is in level four lockdown. That means that we can't go to school, so we do everything online just like a normal day, but your just at home instead of school.  Every day I have to do Two google meets for all of my writing, math, reading & Strand groups. I find lockdown very interesting. 

It's very different in google meets -to- normal life. We all need to stay in our own bubble to stay safe and to make sure that the virus doesn't spread and make more and more people unwell. New Zealand's Prime Minister = Jacinda Ardern has made lots of good questions to help keep New Zealand safe!

Some of my google meets have heaps of people in them and some have hardly any! I've liked lockdown because I get a nice break!

Thick & Thin Questions

                                             Thick & Thin Questions

What are thick and thin questions?:  Thick and thin question are different types of questions.  Thick questions makes people think more and different ideas that match to the topic.  Also a thick question means that there may be different thoughts and answers to that question.  Usually when somebody says that's a thick or thin question they normally a wanting an answer. 

Most people use thick and thin sentences every day in daily life.  I love when somebody asks me a thick and interesting question.  Thick and thin questions are a bit different in different ways to  explain and use. 

Try using thick and thin questions in everyday life. There are different ways to use a thick or thin questions. Not all thick questions stat with; is it possible. 

This is a thick question:  Is it possible to come invisible? Using that one question , heaps of people will have different opinions/thoughts. What do you think about: Is it possible to come invisible? My opinion is that you can camouflage and hide in or under something, you could hide in the sea, behind a dark cloak, where white clothes in the snow.   There is heaps of different ways to hide, but you never actually come/ go invisible. 

                                             Have you ever answered a thick question?

Story-Starters

Story-Starters 

 Every week  Moana Learning Hub get to do story starters. They  are very interesting. A story starter is a sentence we need to use at the start of our quick write. I have found the sentence starters very interesting & fun.

 There are success criterias that we have to follow to make sure our stories are high quality, have lots of detail, have interesting & describing words, also to make sure that we include similes, nouns, adjectives, idioms, verbs, adverbs. 

I find the sentence starters very helpful to get my stories started.  Every week Moana Learning Hub need to have finished two story starters. Everytime I start a story starter I use a different sentence to start each piece of descriptive writing.  

Normally we write for twenty-five mininuts then edit for five - ten mininuts to make sure that we have got enough words and sentences in our story starters. Once we have finished both story starters we need to edit and check to make sure that we have followed the Success criteria correctly.  

Here are some slides that show what we use to start our stories and which sentence starters are used every week. 

Olympic Learning

                                   Olympic Learning

                                                  What have we been learning

At  the moment MLH has been learning about the olympics. I have found the challenge quite hard but i've been learning so much new information. The Olympic booklet is a booklet that has heaps of little activities for us to complete. I have loved learning about the Olympics, because I get to find out so much information that I don't know yet.  

                                                      whats in the booklet

In one part of the booklet there are 2 mascots from tokyo ( to show us what a mascot really looks like ), so then we need to design an  Aotearoa mascot, I needed to do heaps of drafts.  It took a long time to do one page of the booklet, because on one page there is so many different activities that we all need to complete.  There also are lots of questions that are very interesting, all about the athletes, sports, results, countries,  age,  opening ceremony, & techniek. 

                                                  Info about the olympics

Did you know that the 2020 olympics were in Tokyo? In the Tokyo 2020 olympics there were 33 different sports but different competitions with'n just one sport. There were 11,090 athletes that competed in the Tokyo 2020 olympics. The olympics go on every four years.
