PE Hurumanu (Bench ball game and Maths)

Kia Ora! Today I'll be blogging about what we have done for the past few weeks in PE Hurumanu. First of all, a group called 'french fries' taught us a very enjoyable game called 'Bench Ball'. It wasn't really a sport but we enjoyed it though. The warm-ups they prepared were 40-star jumps, 20 High knees, 10 runs back and forth and the drills were Sneak up granny. 

After we've done the warm-ups and drills, we finally moved on to the real game. First off, we were separated into our year groups which are year 7 and year 8's. I'm a year 8 student so I went to the year 8 sections. We versed the Year 8 BH and the Year 7 TZ also verse the Year 7 BH. We all did two rounds and sadly, Year 8TZ lose both rounds while Year 7TZ won just one game because we didn't have enough time.

Next, I'll be talking about the Math-related activity we did with Miss Birtch. The purpose of this Hurumanu is that we learn a different subject as well. It's not just all PE we also do other subjects such as Maths, Reading or Writing. We did a math problem relating to painting a pitch lining on the field of football and we need to find out how many It will costs to paint the whole field, how much time It will take and How much Whiteline buckets do we need?

I was grouped with Risha and Kya for this maths problems. At first, we were very confused because we get it all mixed up. We were also split into two groups 3 teams went to Miss Simpson to practice their warm-ups while the other 3 teams are working on math problems with Miss Birtch. In the end, we shared how we did it and what type of strategy we use but we got similar strategies with other groups. We divide it and that's how we got the answer to it.

Reflection: I think French Fries did a really a good job of teaching us a game/sport. Maybe next time add another drill because you guys have only one drill and we were supposed to have 2 drills. Also, make sure the drills are related to the game you are teaching next time but overall you guys did a really good job. Keep it up!

I was an outstander because I pass the ball to people on my team instead of passing it to the same person all the time.
But anyway, thanks for reading my post and have a great day!

The people I work within this play are Risha, Shreya, Nevaeh and myself.

Have a look at our play:

ELLA WEST VISITING HHS!!!

Kia Ora! Today I'll be blogging about the amazing assembly we just had in P1. Today was a special assembly because we have an unexpected guest. This guest is the author of a specific book that the AL class have been reading. The name of this special guest is Ella west. She wrote 2 interesting books called 'Night Vision' and 'Rain Fall'. For me, I found Night Vision interesting because based on the sneak peek of Miss Ella West told us about the book. The main character which is a girl she has this unique allergic which only like a rare of people would have this. She is unbelievably allergic to sunlight.  

This character has been going through a lot in her life, she even witnessed the death of someone by a burning car. The plot of the story is pretty interesting and I'm looking forward to reading this book hopefully If I have time. She also told us how she did research on google of a specific place to use in her book. I like how she actually learned what's the place actually looks like so she could add the details of the place in her book.

That's pretty much about the session today. 

I hope you enjoy my post and have a great day!

Miss Ella West I hope you enjoy visiting us this morning!

Talofa! This week Mr Scott set a DLO challenge for us. This DLO challenge is about researching 5 interesting facts you didn't know on something you're in interested in. For me, I am into KPOP and I choose to research one of the KPOP groups and that is TXT. I collected 5 facts I didn't know about the members of this band. Here is my DLO and I hope you like it! Enjoy!

Thanks for viewing my post! Please give me some feedback down below of how I could improve it next time. That would be appreciated so much. Thanks and have a good day! 

What have we been doing in Digitech?

Kamusta! Today I'll be blogging about one of our new hurumanu and that is Digital Tech with Miss Tozer, Mr Carter and Mr Richardson. In this hurumanu, we are focusing on making a game about our Topic. The topics we need to choose from are Social, Ethical and Environment issues. I choose environmental issues and It's about Deforestation. For the past few weeks, we're just doing some researching about the topic we choose. We have this google doc to put our resources there.

After we've done the researching parts, I think we are exploring 2 apps that you could make a game based on your topic. For example, your topic was about rubbish, you could make a game where you put bits of pieces of rubbish to the bin. 

I'd say, this hurumanu is pretty exciting because It involves using exciting apps and gadgets and I've heard we are gonna use some robots. So far I enjoy this new hurumanu and the only thing is bothering me is that we can't access to the Hurumanu site.

Anyways, here is my doc that I've been working on based on my topic.

Thank you for viewing my post! Please leave a feedback down below to improve my work Thanks :)
