Inquiry Reflection ( Natural Disaster)

WALT: Research about natural disasters.

On the last block we have been working on our Inquiry which is about Natural Disasters. So we all had to do a question about Natural Disasters and my question was why does Natural Disasters occur??. 

So I have been researching and still haven't got a answer. The reason why I did Why Natural Disasters occur is because I don't know that much about it and I just want explore more fun facts about Natural Disasters. 

I have learned that Landslides is a Cliff,Mountain,Rock that can fall down and get you injured. Landslides are very dangerous it can also cause death. A definition that I have made with my group in our own words was a Landslide is a large amount of rock that collapses from a mountain or a cliff

Maths (Reflection)

WALT: Pick a activity to help with your Maths.

Today in the middle block Kia Manawanui had Maths. Some of the Kia Manawanui students were gone to Kapa Haka and some stayed. First we had an division sheet and we had to fill it in by 8 minutes. I found it pretty challenging because I don't really like doing maths but at least I tried my best. I did only 3 lines and a bit and I think I did pretty. 

After filling out our sheets I got put into a group and we were allowed to pick any Maths games to work on so we did a game that I called Answer The Dice. So how play is that you have 2 dice and you roll it on the table and if the 2 dice stop you have to Multiply the number on the 2 dice try get the answer. For e.g. If I roll the 2 dice and it is 6 x 6 that will equal 36 so it all about who gets it fast. I got 24 point and the other got under 10.

Rugby League game (Jagz)

WALT: Reflect on what we did at our ARL game

On the 21st of July 11:15  my League team Pakuranga had a match with an intense team Otahuhu. I was pretty nervous because they got  hard defense on us but I just knew we can put our head in the game and beat them even though we got small players but hard tacklers. I played second row because I had hard runs on my training so my coach put me as second row. I normally play center and hooker.

 Otahuhu was a really big team but we just need to believe in ourselves. So when they first kicked off our fullback had a run which is Demetrius his sidestep is so loud its like he is stomping on the floor. Then off Demetrius goes he got a very easy fast try and then we started to get heaps of tries and they had 12 we had 40 I scored one try from bumping off a player and ran threw the gaps. What I found challenging was tackling because I missed a tackle and the other team got a try.

WHAT POINT DO YOU THINK WE WOULD OF BEAT OTAHUHU??

Camp Activities (Reflection)

WALT: Tell the audience/readers on what we did for our camp activities.

Today we have been working on our camp activities and what I choose to do for our camp activities were A-Z Camp Vocabulary. 

The reason why I chose this topic instead of the others is because this is the best topic for me to do when I present in front of my class because I might get something that as from and it will be pretty embarrassing.

  What I found challenging on this task was finding a word that starts with x that relates to camp so my result of my task was 26 out of 25. The easiest letter that I can out of the alphabet that relates to camp was T. I chose T because it felt easy so the words I can get out of it was Tall hills,Target,Timing,Together,Team, Terrific. So here is a photo on what I have done.

Can you think of a word that starts with Q that relates to camp?

Camp Raglan Reflection

WALT: Reflect on how we felt at camp.

What I really enjoyed about camp was Kayaking because I always rock the boat and me and Lydia always fall in the middle of the sea. I enjoyed Kayaking the most is because the Instructor's very attractive and it was fun been with them. Kayaking was fun because it was my first time kayaking to another island and it so far and tiring but we still did it and we came first.

What I didn't like at camp was orienteering because there was heaps of cow poo I stood on and it was so disgusting and because we had to walk up and down the mountains and that was so tiring because its like your walking up mt Everest. I was so lazy but still had that mind to still go and me and Toma came first. I didn't like stepping on the poo because it felt like im gonna die because it was so sunny that it was steam hot.

Broncos vs Warriors ( Holiday)

WALT: Reflect on what I did in the uncle with my family.




In the 2 week holiday I went to the Warriors vs Broncos with my Cousin,Uncle,Step Aunty that Invited me to go for my birthday on the 14th of April. Me and my cousin Demetrius knew that Broncos will definitely win against Warriors so we didn't need to worry about anything. When we got there I was a little worried about Warriors going to win because Roger Tuivasa Sheck is a very sporty fast player

 but I trust Demetrius broncos is going to win. My aunty and Uncle was always a huge warriors fan so we left them. On the first half Broncos had 14 and Warriors had 8 points. Me and Demetrius was happy. Broncos won against warriors 27 to 18, I was laughing and my uncle was saying to me and Deme that me and him is not playing next week for the game and he was I'm T boy and Deme is 
water boy but he was joking around.

Preparation of Ako Evening (Reflection)

WALT: Reflect deeply on what we prepared for our Ako Evening.

Yesterday the 12th of April Tamaki Primary School had a Ako evening which is when your parents come to your school and you show them what have you've been learning since the past few weeks for term 1. I didn't come to the Ako Evening because my older brother had parent interview at One Tree Hill on 3:30 and my mum couldn't come to the ako evening because she came back home on 6:00 and the ako evening started on 4:00 and finished on 6:00 or 6:30. 

What we prepared before the ako evening was a play but I couldn't come so it was about the panmure bridge. 

The people that was in my group was Demetrius,Akanesi,Lydia,Faka'ata,Teresa and Fine. Our group split up and Fine,Teresa and Faka'ata was working on where is the panmure bridge or what is the panmure bridge. Me, Demetrius,Akanesi and Lydia worked on the play so me and lydia was the bridge, Demetrius was the builder the builder, Faka'ata was the worm, and Akanesi and the rest was on the ship. We all worked hard but I thought I left our team down because I didn't turn up but I think they did very well at the ako evening.

Last week of Tai Chi - Lesson #7

WALT: Reflect on what we did at Tai Chi.

Today we had our last Tai chi for this week. When we got there the Kia Manawanui boys forgot to bring our Manuals because it was our last week at Tai chi and if we bring our Manuals full signed we can be in a draw to win a price. So we all forgot our Manuals at home and we were pretty disappointed that he reminded us last week and we still didn't get our manual.What we learned at Tai Chi was that we had to learn our moves we have been learning for the past few weeks off by hard.After practicing the moves we had to get a chair and sit in a semi circle and we had to come up in the middle and show our moves we have been learning. 

For me I got a 3 Very Good,4 Excellence, 1 Improve. I was very Impressed with Alo because he had heaps of excellence and he gave flavour into his action. I was shocked because Toma did it very well  but I thought when Alo did it he wanted to do it well, Toma was very good at his moves but just some he mucked but it was alright he tried his best. After all of us trying Alo got an award for putting attitude on his move so he got a grey and black cap and it has a Kung Fu Logo on it.

Tai Chi Reflection - By Tevita & Lofa

WALT: Reflect on what we did at TAI CHI/KUNG FU

the Kia Manawanui boys had Tai Chi and we were 5 to 8 minutes late. When we got there we had to do our warm up breaves and the name for it was Earth,Sky,Monkey wash and there was heaps more but I don't know what it is called. 

What I learned was to always  go on time with our stance because sometimes I go faster or slower.Next time I should encourage my mates so they can get more encourage from me and my other mates so the feel more safe when they are doing there moves. 

What I think I improved was getting focused and not laughing at anything with my mates. The second thing I think I did well was doing our stance well. The only one thing I should improve is moving in the same side everyone is going because when they do right I always do left so I need to improve.

Kiwisport/Cricket - Reflection!!! - By Tevita

Today in the morning Kia Manawanui had Cricket and Tennis. Home group one had Tennis and home group two had Tricket.I am in the group 2 so we had Cricket first. The first batters was and Edith and the rest was feilding. What I found the challenging for me was trying catching the ball because I wasn't focused on the batters hitting the ball I was focused on doing my fortnite moves. So that is one thing I need to work on when I am playing cricket. Cricket was fun because I was just playing around and doing anything with Demetrius.

Our 2nd lesson what Tennis and it was our Kiwisport. It was our 3rd lesson for kiwisport and our Instructor was Peter, Peter is a really sporty man that is always focused on what he is doing. Our first activity was a Volley, what we had to do for the volley was we had to do for volley was hit the ball slowly and we had to make it gentle. What I was confused on for Tennis was when we had to put the racket in front of us then hit it sideways. I was confused on it because I am usually just hit it sideways but I had to put the racket front then hit it sideways.

P.E Reflection

WALT:Reflect on what we did at kiwisport and P.E.

Today we had Kiwisport and P.E but P.E was not softball it was Cricket because our tournament is going to be Cricket and Colin Maiden Park. So group 1 had Kiwisport and it was still tennis and group 2 had P.E. If you have seen my blog before about it I was in group 2 and I am still in group 2 so we had P.E and first we had some little drills so our group each had a ball and we had to practice our catching.

What I found challenging for cricket was throwing the ball far because my thumb was sore because a bone popped out but then in the weekend I went to the doctors and it got healed but it was still sore. After all of the drill we had a game and we were batting and I just got 3 runs because we had small time to play.
