Tuakana teina day!

           Tuakana Teina Day!

    Wednesday 19 September 2018

Walt Ako/learning from each other and learning with each other.

We went to Room 3 for Tuakana teina day. Mrs Fepulea'i was
telling some stories about her sister in a earthquake. Mrs
Gormly showed us a video of how to make a earthquake
proof house that is made from a box. So we were put in
our groups and we tried to make a earthquake proof house
from a milk for schools box. Our group planned the house
on paper for a model to copy. Once we complete our paper
model we got a box and started on our house. We put little
inflatable packaging inside our box for a little airbag.
Then we went outside with Mrs Gormly to test a normal
box to see how it goes she put her phone on top with an
app that can detect movement. So we went back to our box
to finish. After lunch I was not here so the rest of my group
finished it.

Boxing Pax feedback

      Boxing Pax feedback.

Walt learn how to box using the 3 commandments.
When I first went to boxing I thought we were going to punch some bags but I realised it was more of a discipline kinda way. So I thought to myself this might be fun. So I wanted to go and I was right it was fun in a way. First my gloves were sweaty and I wanted to quit but I did not give up and I learnt self discipline.
The three commandments
Respect
I will have respect to my coach, my peers and the sport of boxing
Discipline I will have discipline to turn up to every boxing session and give my 100%
Safety I will not cause harm to others and only practice boxing in a safe environment under the guidance of a coach.

I would love to do this again!

Chatterbox

Chatterbox

Ms Bracey gave us 1 piece of magazine paper.

Then she gave us some scissors. She told us to fold it into a

triangle then told us to cut the oblong shape off.

Firstly, she gave us instructions to make a chatterbox.  

So we observed the information of how to make a chatterbox,

so we can have fun.

Secondly,  we made our chatterbox toy.

We followed the instructions to make a chatterbox.

I looked at Milan's chatterbox to observe more information.

Lastly, we played with our new paper chatterbox toy,

It looked like a monsters mouth.

Omg we made snow!!!!!

Omg we made snow!

Today in Room 8  29 of Aug 2018 we made snow.

Miss Bracey gave us a packet of magic snow.

Then she gave us 1 mini cup.

After that she filled it up with half a cup of water.

Then she gave us another mini cup.

We put the water on the cup with the snow powder/polymer

and it popped up like making a muffin.

It looked like snow but it was not cold.

Miss Bracey said we have 10 minutes to play with the

snow so we made one big snowman.

WALT: Experiment with polymer to write a recount from the experience.
