Fitness

IALT: Reflect on what group I was in during Fitness

On Wednesday the Kia Manawanui had a fitness session outside. The fitness sessions were

1. Mountain climbing and Skipping on the top courts
2. Running and doing pushups on the botto courts
3. Power walking and Step ups on the hall steps and bike track

I was on the bike track and the hall steps doing Power walking and Step ups. We had to do it for like 10 to 20 minutes and the students who were in my group were 

1. Me
2. Losana
3. Frances
4. Vuni
5. Sene
6. Siale
7. Akanesi
8. Curtys

Half of my group was doing the step ups and the other half was power walking on the bike track. Then we swapped and had to do the step ups while the others do power walking. Then we were finished and had to walk to the botto courts were everyone met at.

The challenge I have faced was power walking because I didnt really know how to power walk. WHat I enjoyed was spending time with my friends.

What Tamaki Means to us

WALT: create and brainstorm a bunch of words, Me and Losana thinks Tamaki means to us.

I have created a wordle about what Tamaki means to us. The site I used was Wordcloud. I have created this because Losana is presenting an ambassador presentation about our Tamaki Rivers and what it means to her. In the presentation I have worked on with Losana she is going to be presenting with 13 other schools. Some of the words me and Losana used were

• Glen Innes
• School
• Family
• Fun 
• Cultures
• Home 
• Different and more

We used these word's because it location all over our tamaki rivers. For more information visit Losana's blog (CLICK HERE).

What I found challenging was finding this site because it was had to just make it on a presentation so I found the Wordcloud site and found it easier to work on. What I enjoyed was working with Losana because we had our laughs but still finished our work. My next steps are to find more words to fill up the whole page.

I hope you like it Comment Feedback and Feedforward on what I need to work on in the future.

Weekend Reflection - Saturday

WALT:Reflect on what we did on the weekends



On Saturday I woke up at 8:30 am to get ready for our music lesson at TPS. When I got ready I had to wait for my cousin to come so we can both  go together, but he wa to late so I asked my cousin to drop me off and she said yes because she is going to my nephews rugby tots program in Botany. When I arrived at school I went and asked the people who were at the counter if we just go to the room straight away and they said yes so I went. The class I am in is the Violin class and the is Room 5. I arrived at the class and know one was there so I just went for a little walk. We I came back 15 or 20 seconds later everyone started coming. We learned how to strum with the bow on the violin. The Equipment we used were,

• Bow
• Violin
• Violin book

Then the lesson finished at 9:30 and I had to wait for my cousin to get a bow because he didn't receive one the week before. Then me and my cousin had to walk to my house because my niece was there and we had to look after her. Soon later it was my cousin and my nephews lesson time because they were learning how to play the recorder,and my Older niece had to drive them to school. The 10:30 came and me and my cousin had to walk back to school and pick them up,Soon later my cousin came and we had to clean up and had to go to the preschool because my mum and that we threading the mat.

We had to help with the yarn because it was only us there and my cousin was the only one threading at the time. Then everyone came and helped and they came with food. When we finish eating the food the kids and I had a little free time until the sunday school people had to go choir. At the sunday school choir we learned new songs that we had to perform on sunday. Then we had to go back to the preschool and we had to clean up to get ready for Monday. Then we went home and had to go sleep because it was about 9:00 or 10:00.

What I enjoyed doing on Saturday was that I went choir and learned new songs. 

What I found challenging was that the songs were quite a bit hard. What My next steps are is to keep practicing the violin. My thought on the Violin Session is to try ask the instructor on how to play songs so he can teach us. I didn't feel like going to the pre school because they dont have Internet and I felt like blogging in my freetime.

I hope you like my Saturday Reflection. Please leave me some Comments on Feedback and Feedforward on what I need to work on in my future blogpost.

🌊What Is So Special About Estuaries?(Solo Taxonomy)🌊

IALT:Reflect on what's so special about Estuaries.

Today my teacher Miss Kormor was off from work and we had a reliever named Mr Thippa(Mr T). We were given a DLO from Miss Kormor to work on including Solo Taxonomy for Reading. Here is the SOLO Taxonomy order, 

Pre-Structural:Ideas you're not sure about

Uni-Structural:1 relevant Idea

Multi-Structural:Having a lot of Ideas

Relational:Making connections to a big picture

Extended Abstract:Thinking outside of the box

Just before we read the text we had to write about what you know about this topic. Me and Losana didn't know what the topic was about so we said that we haven't heard about it,we also had to research about what Estuaries means. The questions that we given to us were...

• What we knew about the topic before reading it
• How many ideas do you have
• How many ideas can you like together
• What do I know about reading the text
• How can I apply what I have read to life
• Have your thoughts changed it all

The me and Losana read the text and had to finish the presentation. Then we finished the presentation just before the Morning bell rang.

What I enjoyed about this about what we read was that it was to do with Solo Taxonomy.What I found challenging was that I didn't understand what the article was about so I asked the teacher.My next steps are to try find the words I don't understand and find what they mean on Google.
