2020 Tokyo Olympics fan zone

Kia Ora blogggers, 

Today all the seniors went to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics fan zone. When we got there we got to ask questions to a real Olympian, her name was Debbie Tanner, people asked her some questions like how many gold medals have you won and what was you favourite sport. Debbie Tanner did the triathlon in the Olympics which means she did running, swimming and cycling. After all the questions people asked Debbie Tanner we went to play Tokyo Olympics games. 

There were online games such as surfing, baseball, karate and running. There were also some props like boxing gloves and bow and arrow that we could play with and take photos with them. After 20 minutes we went to the skills area. There were a bunch of stuff like Multi sports, badminton and more. For all of the challenges we got 20 minutes each to get more points than the other school that went there. After 20 minutes we would swap to the next challenge. We were all split up into groups and I was with my friends. 

When we finished the skills challenges we went to watch the rowing race of the Olympics. New Zealand came 2nd which was good. There was a giant skateboard that we took a photo in front of before going back to school.

My holidays

Kia Ora bloggers, 

Today my class and I wrote about what we did in the holidays. I went to the movies with my family watch Space jam, the new legacy. I hope you guys like it!

During the holidays my family and I went to the movies. We watched Space jam, the new legacy. We went on Monday because that was the only day my mum had a day off so my mum decided we would go out on Monday. We went at 6:30pm because that was the only available time. I really enjoyed watching the part where they played basketball because there were power jumps that they could use to jump really high to get the ball into the hoop. 

Treasure hunt

 Kia Ora bloggers,

Today I did a Treasure hunt on google maps, I started off at Muriwai and there was a clue. For each place I went to there was a clue. At Muriwai there was a clue that lead me to Madagascar and it kept on leading me places with clues. The last place was Antarctica where Phil (the person who was going on the Treasure hunt) found the Treasure. The Treasure hunt was about Phil having a dream that a lemur wanting him to find his treasure and Phil did find the treasure but the lemur found it first. In the treasure chest was a fruit that the lemur wanted to grow to feed his entire species. 

Tangrams

Kia Ora bloggers,

Today I made a horse and a house out of shapes. It was really hard to get the shapes into the perfect position to make it look like a horse. The hardest one to make was the horse, it took me hours to make it because of how the shapes had to be positioned. The easier one was the house that only took a few minutes so you can tell that the one that took the longest was the horse. I hope you guys like them.

Guess the sentence

 Kia ora bloggers, 

Today my brother and I played guess the sentence. What you need to play are two people, pen or a pencil and two or three pieces of paper. How you play is one of the players write down a sentence they want the other player to guess. Then either of the players can write down 10 boxes on a piece of paper, if you need more boxes use another piece of paper and write the amount of boxes needed .Then the person who is guessing guesses some letters until they get the whole sentence. Punctuation counts as a letter so put punctuation in a box like a space. My sentence was high above success. My brother guessed the sentence petty fast because there were some double letters which made it easier. 

Chrome Music Lab

Kia Ora bloggers,

Today I made music on Chrome Music Lab, Chrome Music Lab is a website that you use to make beats and all kind of stuff. I used song maker to make a beat. It was kind of hard to make the different sounds and get the right pitch. In the song maker there are boxes and when you press them they go to a colour. The bottom starts with low pitch and going u it goes more into a high pitch. Here´s the link to Chrome Music Lab. The link to the music I made is here. I hope you like my music and have fun making your own music with Chrome Music Lab!

Bike training

 Kia Ora bloggers, 

This week on Tuesday and Wednesday my class and I had bike training. On Tuesday our time was 9:30 and on Wednesday our time was 11:25. On Tuesday we started off by learning how to put on our helmet on properly. After we went through that we went through the rules. Then we picked a bike to ride, the people who didn´t know how to ride a bike went with Jason and the rest went with loni. I was with loni and the first thing we did was ride around the court. Then we went into groups, there were a red, blue, yellow and a green group which I was in. We played a couple games and red won. Loni said if the red team won again they would get free time but if someone else won they would snatch the free time off the red team. 

Sadly for the rest of the teams the red teams won. They got free time while everyone else had to put there bikes back and pack up. On Wednesday for the warm up we played the traffic light game. How the game went was everyone had to ride around the court and she would call out something to do, like when she called out stop light you had to stop and if she called out orange light you would have to ride on your bike slowly. Then we played a bean bag game and if someone from your team won you would get a point, a person from my team won then we played another bean bag game. My team won again and we got free time! Here are some photos!

Kainga Ora- Subway

Kia Ora bloggers,

Today my class and I got subway, we got subway because a few weeks ago every one in my class filled out a servery and it said if you have the best answers your class will get subway and lucky enough we won. It was delicious, in my subway I had, mayo, tomato, cucumber and chicken. We also got a bottle of water and a chocolate chip cookie which was also really delicious. 

Some people who work for Kainga Ora even came to our classroom. We took some photos with them and then we got to give them some ideas of what to put in Auckland like more playgroups, pools, soccer fields and much more. The bell already rang and we didn't get time to eat yet so my teacher gave us a little bit more time. Here are some photos we took.

Thank you Kainga Ora for the subway!
    

Matariki Forest

 Kia Ora bloggers,

A couple days ago my class and I started a Tane Mahuta poster on google drawing. Today we got to finish it because most of the class didn't finish including me. We started this Tane Mahuta poster for matariki. Tane mahuta is related to matariki by how matariki became a thing. The children of mother eart Papatuanuku and sky father, Ranginui, were divided over whether to separate them and bring light and life to the earth. Eventually, Tane mahuta (the god of the forest), laid down and used his feet to force them apart but Tawhirimatea (the god of the winds) did not agree with his brother actions and thought separating his parents was a cruel idea. He got so angry at his brother that he tore his eyes out and crushed them, then he threw them up to the heavens and those became Matariki and the six sisters. Here is the matariki poster I made!
