Te Kinga's fun day out

 On the 7th of December 2021 Te Kinga went on a little walk for the day and this is how it went:

First we got into groups of 5 which were colours. We started walking out of school and walked to the Velenski track and started to walk in. It was a nice walk with all the trees around us, but when we got out someone was missing. So we had to go back in and look for them so we went the intersection and called out her name multiple times but she couldnt answer. Our teacher then sent a couple people to look for them back to the start of the valenski track but they couldnt find her at all. Then we heard a whistle blow at the other side of the walk so we all ran over there and found her but she was cold and was then suffering with hypothermia and  one of the groups had to work how to save her because we studied how to be a medic and save them, so that happened five times but with different scenarious like a broken arm, a cut hand and a sting on their hand. After we did all of that we then got to make a fire at a beach near the lake but since our group didn't get the fire going we stole someone elses fire and put it on ours. And before we did the fire we had to make a rainproof hut that the entire group could fit in. When we made the fire, we got to cook marshmallows for some smores, after all of that we finally had to pack up and go back to school.

Camp comic strips

 Today we have been making little comic strips of our camp and were making the most funniest ones from our camp and these are my favorite ones that I made.

Body smart

Two weeks ago, our group did something called body smart, which is basically when the teacher gives us a song and we listen to it, then we make some types of dance moves for the song. So our song was 6 months on a leaky boat and it was really interesting about what it was about. We all had only one hour (There were about 2 more groups doing the same thing)  to make up all the moves for the dance, then we all showed each other the dance moves we have done, it was really fun.

What song would you dance to?

Topic

So far in this term we have been learning about water and I will be telling you some facts. One, is that when water gets puddles heat up it becomes gas, also known as water vapour. Two, when water vapour gets cold it turns into water again. That is called condensation. Last, hydro electricity is made by water flowing into blades, then spins the turbine and creates electricity! All of those facts of water sounds like their fake but no, they're actually real! And also we had groups finding different things about water. At the end of the week we had to do a quiz about what we learned to see if we were actually learning and not playing around. We also did an experiment, first you have to get your equipment which is water, a timer, some chalk and you have to do this outside, after you have gathered the equipment needed go outside to a flat place then pour your water. Step 2, then trace out the outline of the water with the chalk, after that get your timer and set it for 5 minutes then trace it around again after the timer has done. Then talk about what has happened to a partner. That is all for today and hopefully you have learnt something new. What is your favourite thing to learn about?

Term 2!

It's term 2 now and i'm looking forward to what sports we are going to do this term, like volley-ball or rugby and a lot more! So far we have learn't a game called hand ball which is basically a mix between Netball and Basketball. I was a goal defender also know as GD. I like the game because it's very energetic and the game goes really fast and you need to be really fit to play. I was in bibs team and I was with Zaine who is around about by 5 feet and 8 inches. So I think we had a pretty good chance to win but over all it doesn't matter and it was really fun and I hope we get to play it a lot.

Paper battle ships

 Today we have been playing a game just like battle ships except it's with paper! If you don't know what battle ships is it's basically a game where you have a certain amount of ships and your goal is to sink the other players ship's before your ships gets sunken and you lose. Anyway, we have 2 number coordinate grid up to 10 on each side of the page, your page, and the enemy's (your teammates page also puts enemy on their separate page . You have different sizes of ships and you can put them where ever you want on your page, once your done you then begin the game. You can say any number and letter up to 10 only like, A1 or J10 etc, if you hit one of their ships they will say hit! However, if you say one and you didn't hit one of their ships they will say miss! But, if you got all of their spots on one of the ships, they will say hit and sunk! And then it would be their turn and do the same thing until all the ships have sunk and a winner has been decided. This was my game but I lost and here is the photo of my loss. This is one of my most favourite game, what's yours?

My writing.

 Lately our class has been doing narrative writing about natural disasters. My writing was about how I had a road trip to timaru and then there was an earthquake. It was really fun writing this story and at the end when everyone was done, we could act them out and see all the mistakes we have made. Mine had quite a lot of mistakes i'm not gonna lie but I wrote down what I needed to work on and it was really funny to act things out. My favourite part of my story was probably when the trees started to fall on the road and we thought it was the end of our life. Here is my writing of my story. By the way sorry if you can't read it.
