We had to use statistics by asnwering a question about the school or the school students. This is the question "  Where is the most popular place to sit and rest?", to find the answer we need to:

1. How do we find the answer? (Do we look for information, ask people, or count things?)
2. What do we need to measure? (e.g. jump distance, number of votes, or temperature)
3. What materials do we need to collect and record data? (e.g. Google doc/spreadsheet/form/map/drawing, questions to ask, pictures to show interviewees etc.)

Kiwi Can

This week we had another session of Kiwi Can. Our Theme was positive relationships and our Topic was friendship. Friendship is when you have a tight connection with someone or some people. Friendship is also showing to respect to others and making a connection. 

ENERGISER: 

The energiser for Kiwi Can was called " The Last Man Standing". So we would power walk around the class room and whosoever name the teacher calls out is the tagger. They need to tag was many people as possible and if you get tagged then you need to go sit leaning against the wall in the corner. If you are the tagger you need to stop tagging people when the Kiwi Can leader says freeze. 

ACTIVITY: 

The activity was called "secret cards". So we had to get into 5 groups. Each group gets 3 cards each and we need to read them and decide weather it is a good secret or a bad secret. When we have decided we will need to put them either where the good ballon is if it is a good secret or the bad ballon of it is a secret.

Then we played against another stonefields team and won against them. Then we played against Stanhope and won against them and then we played against Tamaki Primary and won against them.

This week was our last session for Ki O Rahi. We played the proper Game Ki O Rahi. We went over how the play. The game first starts off with the Kioma team getting a kicker kicking the Ki to the Kaitiaki in Pawero, and if they do not catch it or not kick properly it is a handover and the taniwha team has to try score by throwing the Ki at the tupu, and to stop that the kaitiaki has to make sure the ki does not touch the tupu. If the Kaitiaki catches the Ki then they throw it out to their team members the kioma team out in Te Au. Kioma scores trys by touching as many Po and they have to try not get ripped by the taniwha team when they touch the po and to score in pawero through te roto. The red team won to the yellow team by two points 20 to 18.

Place Value

LI: to shift between place values using multiplication.

This week we have been doing place value numbers. We have been talking about making numbers smaller or bigger. By making numbers smaller we have to divide it. To make the numbers bigger we have to multiply it. Dividing the numbers shows that you can have numbers smaller than 1 but bigger than 0.

e.g

3  ÷  10 = 0.3 

3 x 10 = 30

Co-Operation is when you share your ideas or particapate with your team or group, Positive Relationships is when you make new friends with other people.

So Mrs Mack will say leaders come up and she tells the leader what to tell the group for example if Mrs Mack tell the leaders that the girls have to do 10 star jumps and the boys do 10 sit ups, the leader has to tell the team and the first to finish wins.

I had also got the chance to be guarding the pou and I think I did a really good job. The taniwha only got one hit because I was a really good. Our team won because we got a lot of hits and we got a lot of runs. It was hard to hit the ball on the pou because the guards were really good.

KOS | Keeping Ourself Safe

LI: To identify behaviours by other people that make them feel unsafe or uncomfortable.

This week we had our first session of KOS ( Keeping ourself Safe.

Personal Strengths:
Personal Strengths is things that we are good at. I am good at playing netball and I like reading a book most of my spear time.

Emotions and Safe Activities
Sometimes emotions can affect peoples behaviours to make them think differently and do dangerous things. When I get certificates I feel very proud of myself which gives me the feeling to do it again. When my sister takes my stuff I get very angry and I feel like to do something dangerous. Instead of doing dangerous things I can just listen to music or ask my sister to not touch my belongings.

Types of Touch:
There is three main types of touch and they are types of touch that are Touch we like, Touch that hurts, Confusing touch we want to stop. Touch we like is a High five, Touch that hurts is a punch in the face, and a Confusing touch that we want to stop is getting a wedgie.

Safe Situations
 Getting a cuddle from your parents is apart of the safe situation and someone telling you to hop in there car and you do not know them is a dangerous situation.

Sentence Starter

LI: to make a short sentence better.

This week we had to make one sentence better by adding more information. We had done sentence starters to make our writing more better. We had to create a DLO with our sentence starter and how we have made it a better sentence.

LI: To learn the notes and chords for a Ukelele.

Ukelele's are one of the hardest instruments to play for some people. We had to learn how to play a Ukelele to a different song. We did the notes G, F,C, and A. I also had a freetime with the piano. I plugged in my earphones and played. I had so much fun.

Praise

Praise means giving people the encouragement and compliments so they can feel positive and not be put down.

ENIGISER:

Our enigiser was called Ro-Pa-Sci Tag. Which is (aka) Rock, Paper, Scissors tag. So this game has no winners or losers so we won't feel bad. You have partner and you do rock paper scissors, if you lose you turn around touch the ground and then chase you other partner who is getting a head start when you turn around and touch the ground. If your partner tags you then you can do it again with the same partner or find another partner.

ACTIVITY: 

Our activity was called Hit and Run. So two teams one attack and one defend. The attack team kicks the ball and they have to try run across to the other side with out getting tagged by the ball when the defend team throws it at them or tags them. The person who ran to the other side can run back if another person kicked the ball or if the defend team is still trying to get the ball. The goal was to get as many home runs as possible.
