Today for Kiwi Can we learned about "Respecting our Environment." So we went straight into our Energiser our Energiser was called "Four Corners" If you don't know how to play "Four Corners" I will show you so this game can be played with a bunch of people. Miss Paige named the four corners and a group of people have to go in those four corners when she say "Four Corners" Someone has to be in the middle closing their eyes and spinning around then he stops and eliminate the corner that is the loudest. Chris was the first person to be the person closing and eliminating groups from 4 corners.
Later on in our Kiwi Can Session. We talked about What is Respect? What is Environment? and What are some of the things that affect the Environment? People had many ideas not just random Ideas we had amazing ideas to share out to everybody.
Then we got straight into our Activity. Our Activity we played called "Invisible" Touch" There was 20 people of us so Miss Paige split us up into 2 groups of 10. Invisible touch is played when someone calls out a number , whatever number gets called has to run : Example , number 3 three people have to run around the basket ball hoop and the other team will run around the netball hoop. Miss Paige would say a name on who has the ball then we or they have to defend and try tag them. So if we tag the person who has the ball you have the ball , Now its time for you to use your stepping skills and trying to score an try for your team. After that we finished the game and Team 2 won , the team i was in.
I am a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson and Mrs Fisi'iahi.

SSR Selfie | Nelson Mandela
LI: To read a book and find out what the book it about.
This week I read the book Little Guides to Great Lives: Nelson Madela. It is called Little Guide to Great Lives: Nelson Mandela. This book is about a man who inspired to the world. His name was Nelson Mandela. Mandela was the first ever black president of South Africa. He was born in a small village in South Africa. Mandela grew up surrounded by hills and green valleys, where he felt free. As he became older he realized that black South Africans were not free at all. Only the white people could vote and have the say on how the country was run. It was dangerous to go against this, but Mandela didn’t let that stop him. He set out a journey to change the way the system works.

If we answer to the trick words in any way it is elimanation. We played two rounds. On the first round Juel was the winner. The second round we added stop. Stop is lay on the the ground, play is just walking, fast forward is fast walking, rewind in going back, and pause is jump. Me and Afatia were the last two people playing, Afatia won.
