Swimming sports

In swimming sports we were doing freestyle,backstroke and breaststroke. It was so much fun I really enjoyed that.

I thought it would be hard so I didn't want to do it .

And I got picked on for the relay also thought that would be hard but it was so much fun I really enjoyed it.

Integrity Games.

As part of the Senior Leadership responsibilities Shantelle, Jessada and I had to discover an integrity game by the end of ten weeks, for the junior team to participate in.  We brainstormed some ideas of games that hand not been invented. The three of us decided to go with a game called Kiwi hut.

Kiwi hunt!

Equipment:          Ten tennis balls, ten hockey sticks and two hoops.

Area:           Native bush, back field.

Formations:         Ten children from year 1 and 2.

Instructions:        1. Ten Balls are hidden by the referees (the older kids)

2. Once the year 1 and 2 kids find a ball they yell out ‘Got it’ and one of the   older kids gives the kids a hockey stick.

3. Once they get the hockey stick they try to get the ball to one of the hula hoops

Variations:           Make the game harder and harder every game but not    too hard for the kids by hiding them in different places.

Each person in our team had to create a game for five classrooms of the junior team with four rotations with each group having Ten or less children in it.  Two groups had to share one rotation time.  This game happened in term 1, 2017 in the back field of the school.

From our game the children learnt eye movement, hockey sticks skills and balls skills with hockey sticks, they had to use eye movement to look for the balls and use the hockey sticks and to hint the balls into the hula hoops.

Tawa Team Raglan Beach Trip

Tawa Team had a wonderful day trip to Raglan beach. Jessica and her group completed the beach relay and had a lot of fun. Jessica used the key competency of Participating and Contributing by accepting responsibility as an individual and as a group member. She also demonstrated the competency of Relating to Others when she worked cooperatively with her group and was considerate of their thoughts and feelings.

Welcome Jessica

Welcome to Room 7 Jessica. Jessica is a Year 4 student. Jessica is a caring and respectful student. Her confidence is developing, she is starting to ask questions when she is unsure and she is becoming more involved participating in group tasks.

Tuatara shelter

This is my plan and a model I created for a tuatara shelter.
The hardest part was putting the model together.  The floor had two levels on my plan, but that was very hard to make, so I used another smaller box inside to make the second level.
I made the kitty litter at the bottom out of polystyrene.
Tuatara are very good at climbing and they can camouflage in green stuff so I made lots of places for them to climb and hide.
