Water Safety🌊

In Te Maunga we have been learning about water safety. One of the main things to do is never swim with a teenager because he or she might go away or they might do something else like to get distracted. The other thing to do is swim between the flags. If your Mum or Dad gets hurt or your boat breaks down you should find the channel 16  for the Coast Guard.

Cricket😜

On Tuesdays in some weeks we have been learning about cricket. My favorite thing that we did was when we learnt how to play speed cricket with one of the guys that made the cricket thing. One of my hardest thing to do was when we had to try and catch the flying ball, that was zooming in the air and right next to the start. It was really fun to play cricket I liked it a lot.

Rebecca Brothers

In Te Maunga we have be learning about Rebecca Brothers. She is a Olympic Swimmer for New Zealand. We made a google drawing about what we want to ask her about. When we saw her we got to have a time to ask her some questions. When she answered them we put what we learnt about her.

Geometry

In Te Maunga we have been learning about geometry. We have been learning a lot of math and geometry and a lot of other things. I found the hardest thing for me was when we had to make a 3d shape, because I chose one of the hardest ones that were there. The Easiest thing was learning about parallel in math for our learning and all of our other things that are like that.

Procedural Writing

In Te Maunga we have been focusing on procedural writing. When we do procedural writing we make a bit of writing that has steps in it and what you need. All of the things that we did for the procedural writing is the Game, Pikelets, Beeswax wraps and Brid Ball. When we did the pikelets we got to make them and when the whole class was finished we even gotta eat our pikelets that we made.

Flubber

In Te Maunga we have been making flubber. Flubber is like slime but in a different way. To make flubber you need 4 tps of borax, water, food colouring, half a cup of water and four and a ½ cups of pva glue. It had not worked because we put to much water in it.

Te Reo

At  Paihia School in Te Maunga  we have been learning about Maori words. We made a google drawing about Kai to go with our learning. Lisa has been teaching us

to do our Te Reo. We have also been given another thing to do and that is to learn the Maori words for things in the kitchen and in our classroom.

Math Goals

In Te Maunga at Paihia School we made our math goals on a google drawing. We got a sheet that had our old math goals that had not been finished. We also got a sheet from Mrs Pou on our chromebook to also get math goals. The last thing that we got our math goals off is the math wall that Mrs Pou made.

Jahrell's Writing Goals

In Te Maunga we set our term three writing goals on our Chromebook on a google drawing. Some of our goals are from last term. The ones from last term are the ones that we did not finish or complete. Mrs Pou made a thing that we can get some goals from. We have a stage level that we can go to if we need to find some more writing goals.

Math Problem Solving

In Te Maunga each week we do maths problem solving with our class or in our math problem solving group. We do maths like 55 times something or something like that. Most of the groups have an export or a target student with them. The target students are the kids that work with Mrs Pou. Mrs Pou gives us maths problems to do with our group and sometimes we get to do it with a friend or a buddy. One day we did our wingspan with the target student. The people that I work with are Breeze, Mere and me. I think the math that we do with our class is fun because we get to help other people learn their math.

Matariki at Waitangi Treaty Grounds

On Tuesday Te Tahuna and Te Maunga went to the Treaty Grounds for Maori New Year. At the Treaty Grounds we played games with the teachers that were at Waitangi Treaty Ground, and we planted our plants and flowers like we did last year. We played games like maui and mato, we also weaved our flax in to fish.

Tino kawa Tion Reka

n The Manuga we all made a google slide about Tino Reka and Tino Kawa. We all tasted a different type of food and then we said Tino Reka if it was sweet and Tino Kawa is sour. The food that we tasted was a apple aporo, pineapple Painaporo, pear pea, orange karaka, banana panana, pepper pepa  

fitness in the morning

At Paihia School all of the classes go to fitness activities. The activities are jump jam racing with the hurdles and lots more things to do. One of my favorite activities are jump jam and the racing with the hurdles. I find fitness fun with the big kids teaching us. I like king teaching me the most when I do my fitness rotashion. The fitness makes our heart beat faster to keep us going. The next day we go to a different activite and then we keep on rotating in till Friday.

Rocky Shore

At the start of week 3 we made our rocky shore presentation. We made it on a google drawing. We went to the bluff and compared it to a rocky shore where not much people go and the Paihia Rocky shore. The rocky shore that no one goes to is way different to the Paihia rocky shore.

Maths Goals

At the start of term 2 we created a google drawing with our math goals on it. We got to pick our own maths goals. We pick the ones that have not be completed or achieved.

term two Writing Goals

At the start of term 2 our class made our writing goals. We did it on a google drawing. We also got to pick our own writing goals. Those goals have not been achieved yet so that is why we chose them.
