Discus

This week I learned about discus and shot put.

First MrJoe showed us how to stand sideways and throw the discus to where you’re aiming at. I needed three fingers to throw the discus. 

Next we needed to get into lines and go behind cones to throw the discus.

Lastly we did a shot put. For the shot put we needed to do the actions we did last week for shot put. We needed to turn sideways then put one arm in front and the other at the back. Then we need to push our body to throw the ball.

I enjoyed this task because we learned how to throw a discus. I did well on the shot put part. I need to improve on trying to throw the discus.

Synthesising

This week I did synthesis about cars. People that was in group 1 or 2 needed to write 3 facts about cars and the other people that’s in group 3 or 4 needed to write 5 or more facts about cars.

First we needed to make a copy of the synthesising slide and write what information we know and information from websites.

Then we needed to combine the information together to make a sentence.

Lastly we need to make a google draw and write the facts about cars on a google slide.

I enjoyed this because I got to learn some information about cars. I did well on the information. I need to improve on writing the information and decorating it.

Motivational Quotes

This week I learnt what motivational quotes are. Motivational quotes are to make you or people confident at doing something.

First I needed to make a google drawing and write some motivational quotes.

Next I needed to think of some quotes to make people confident at something that they are not confident at doing. One of mine was “ Never give up on what you want to achieve”.

I really enjoyed this task because I got to learn how to motivate myself and people. I did well on writing the motivational quotes. I need to improve on writing more quotes

Perimetre

Today I learnt how to measure in perimetre.

First we needed to measure the object in metres. The length of the mat near the door was 1 metre and 46 centre. The width for the mat was 86 centimetres. Then we needed to add the numbers up. For an example: 1 metres + 1 metres = 2 metre, right which 46 centimetre +46 centimetre = 93 centimetres so 2 metre + 92 centimetre = 2.92 and 86 centimetres + 86 centimetres = 1.72 metres and 1.72 +2.92 = 4 metres and 64 centimetres. 

 Then we needed to learn what perimeter is. Perimeter is measuring the corner of the area and not the inside of the area. For example: my class mat near the door was measured in centimetres. Then we needed to measure our school field. The measurement for our school field is 201 metres right and our guess is 132m to 450 metres. 

I enjoyed this because I got to learn about perimeter. I did well on measuring because it was simple and easy. I need to improve on calculating it.

Comments

This week we commented on other schools and other classes’ movies.

First we needed to comment on another school before commenting on our own schools.

Next we needed to comment on room 5 or room 7 movies after we commented on another school’s movie.

Lastly we needed to right a nice comment and what they need to improve on in their videos.

I enjoyed watching the movies because they were amazing. I did well on commenting. I need to improve on adding more information.

 

Length

This week I learnt about length.

First I learnt what and how to length. Length is how long the object is. For Example: if I measured a chair and you wanted to measure the length you will have to measure the object with a ruler.

Next I needed the length of a chair,pencil,tray,white board, table, and a object.

I enjoyed this because I learnt about length. I did well on measuring the objects. I need to improve on writing it down.

Synthesising Template

This week me and my reading group practise synthesising templates. 

FIrst we needed to practise synthesising templates with Miss White. Miss White asked if we knew what synthesising is. Synthesising templates is to use an idea you know and use new information to create another idea.

Next we watched a video about 15 facts of hedgehogs and wrote them down for the information that we already knew. Then we used the new information from the video and the information we already knew together into a sentence.

Then we made a DLO about hedgehogs.

I really enjoyed this because we got to make a DLO explaining facts about hedgehogs. I did well on the information. I need to improve on finding more information.

Shotput

Today me and group B learnt how to shotput. Shotput is an athletic sport.

First I learned how to throw a shotput the correct way. First I needed to stand sideways and look at the target with my non-dominant arm.

Next I learned how to grip the ball. I needed to grip the ball by using the three middle fingers and put the ball under your ear and your jaw.

Lastly, I learned how to throw the ball. To throw the ball I needed the three middle fingers to go forwards and twist my body to the target.

I enjoyed this because I got to learn how to shot put. I did well on throwing the ball. I need to improve on standing sideways.

Te Reo Maori

This week I learnt Te Reo Maori.

First me and my group sat on the mat and spoke Maori for 8 minutes straight. If you speak English you lose a point or a strike.

I enjoyed this because we got to learn some new Maori words. I did well at telling the time. I need to improve on saying the new words in Maori.

 

Pros and Cons Sea

This week I learnt what pros and cons were. Pros are advantage and cons are disadvantages.

First I needed to go on the class site to go on the pros and cons slide. Then I needed to add a picture of a ship and a jetski and attribute it. I also needed to write the pros and cons for it. If you had 2000 dollars and you needed to go on a gallery or a cruise ship which one would you prefer. I would prefer a cruise because it could be a 24 hour drive there and there are hotels and food where you can sleep and eat and do other things.

Next we needed to do the other on which ship. We also needed to use pros and cons. These are the things I wrote. Pro:Hotels & Food, Swimming pools, Lots of fun. For cons: Very very expensive, A lot of hours to get to the place. Cruise ships might be too tall to stay in because some people are scared of heights.

Lastly we needed to make a blog explaining what we did.

I enjoyed this because I got to learn what pros and cons are. I did well at aturbting the pictures. I need to improve on the pros and cons.
