Free Fun Day Reflection

WALT: change up the activities we do while being at Free Fun Monday.

Today at 12:50 we went to set up for Free Fun Monday. It was Zumba at first but was changed t Free Fun Monday because the projector couldn't work. For today's Free Fun Monday we had Musical Chairs. We played songs and lots of kids came. This was located in the TPS Hall BTW (By The Way). When we were playing musical chairs it went on for 15 minutes so we finished at 1:25. Then the kids went outside and played some games outside with Metui and Akanesi. They played games while Losana and I were inside taking a brake. When they came back inside we had 1 Zumba sesh(Session) and all the Student councils that took part of Free Fun Friday was up on stage doing Zumba until the bell rang. Then when the bell rang all the kids went to class and we had to pack everything away.

What challenges I found was playing Musical chairs because there was a lot of kids and there was only a little bit of chairs. My next steps are to put more chairs out for Musical chairs because there might be a lot of kids.What I enjoyed was the last part, Zumba because everyone participated.

IAL: how to do Lunges

Today after Morning tea (as always) we had Fitness. I didn't know we had a reliever in my class because when we got tot the top courts a women came down with Miss Kyla and Kelly so I asked Kelly and she said it was our teacher. Then we had to run the track. When I was running I was running with Losana. Losana and I got to the top courts before people who started before us. Then we had to get in our groups and go and do our normal routine. My group did Shuttle runs but it was to the half court line and back then to the boys corner then back. The other group did Step Ups and Squats and the other group did Lunges and Star Jumps. When our timer finished we had to go to Step ups and Squats. After that we went to do Lunges and Star Jumps. Our reliever did that routine. She told us that we had to breathe in through our noise and out through our noise and out through our mouth. My group did that but she said we had to do it gently. Then we had life lesson with our reliever doing Lunges. She said we had to do it an 90 degree angle but it was time for us to go back to class.

What I found challenging was breathing during the star jump session because I was coughing. What I enjoyed was doing the shuttle runs because I really like running. What my next steps are is to try run during our bike track running to get fitter.

Today's Reflection

IALT: share my experience with younger students

Today at 8:50 all the student councils had to go to Mrs Thompson in the office, but it was only me and Losana that sowed up. Then Mrs Thompson told us what we are doing today. Today we had Kindergartens come to our school to see what primary is all about. She told us that she needed 11 student councils today but on 2 showed up so she said that they might come later. She told us that were are going to be greeting the Kindergarten that are coming today. We greeted in the people and then had stations to do. some Kindergarten kids are going to be in Room 1 and 2 and outside doing things they do in primary. The stations we,

• Art Station (Room 2)
• Reading outside (Outside Room 2)
• Obstacle courses (Outside Room 1)
• Hand Drawing (Outside Room 11)
• Sand Pit

Then we went into Room 2 to set up and then Miss Parks class came in. Then when we were talking and the kids did zumba Mrs. Komor came and told us that we needed to be in class by 10:15 so after that we went up to class and we had to do work.

What I found challenging was doing zumba with the kids before talking to Losana because I had a stitch because I had a lot of my drink. What my next steps are is to try not drink but eat in the morning. What I enjoyed was greeting the Kindergartens to our school because I didn't know until this morning that there would be Kindergarten coming to our school.

IALT: Do reverse lunges

Today after morning tea we had fitness. The first bell went but the teachers didn't come because they had their photos today. Then the 2nd bell rang and we had to wait in our 3 lines and wait for the teachers.  When the teachers came we had half of group 2 go with 1 teacher and the other half with my group combined. Then we started our fitness. Some people in my group did shuttle runs,Some people did Step ups and the others did squats. The group that went before us did Reverse Lunges and Plank. When we did all our fitness we swapped and I never new how to do reverse lunges until I got told. To do Reverse Lunges we had to put our feet together and step back and let your knee almost touch the ground. Some people didn't do it so we had to restart the timer. After the timer we did Planks. I did it on my hands and my teacher said it would be easier if we spread out our legs and then I said nahh I wanted to challenge myself so I did the Planks. Then the timer was up and we had to go back and line up and go back up to class.

What I learned in today's fitness session was doing Reverse Lunges because I never new we had to almost touch our knee to the ground. What I found challenging was doing the Planks because I challenged myself to do the hard Planks. What I enjoyed was learning something new in Fitness. What my next steps are is to try learn more in Fitness.

📖📘Reading Buddy's📖📘

IALT:Read with my Reading buddy from Room 3 and ask questions about 1 book she has read.

Today after Lunch Time our class went to Room 3 for Reading Buddy's. If yous don't know what Reading Buddy's are Reading Buddy's is when you get given a younger student to read with. Today I was with Hannah, Hannah is a Female student and she is a Tongan that attends Tamaki and is in Room 3. She came with her book bag and we went to the park to read there. We got out her books and she had 9. We couldn't get through 6 but we got to read 3 books. She read the books really well but she needed help with some words and if I was to rate her Reading out of for a Year 3 or 2 I would rate her an 9.5 because she is really good at reading. Then when we finished reading the books we had to go back to Room 3,drink our milks then walk back up to class.

Some questions I asked Hannah was Who is the Main Character?,What is the book about and more. The challenges Hannah had were sounding the words out. Next Steps she should work on is sounding out words she doesn't know with a help of her parents or students at Tamaki.

IALT: Do planks with my hands

Today for Fitness we went up to the top courts to have another Fitness session with Mrs. Komor and Mrs. Kyla. When we started our fitness we had to run around the bike track. I walked because I was tired . I was walking with Frances and Akanesi. When we got half way we started running and we got there before some people. When we got there we got put into our groups. So then we got put into our groups we combined with group 2 because there was only 2 teachers. In my group we did Step Ups and Squats. The other group had Inch Worms and Hand Planks. The Step Ups was challenging for me because my legs were so sore.  When we were doing the Inch Worms they were quite hard because I can't really touch my feet and as I said my legs were sore.

 

Then the time was up and we had to go to Mrs. Komor. With Mrs. Komor we did Star jumps and Planks. We did Star Jumps first then we had to do planks. While we were doing or planks I did it on my elbows and I didn't know if we did it on hands it will be harder so that's what I learned in this Fitness session. Then Fitness time was up and it was time to go back to class

What I found challenging was doing the hand Planks because it is quite harder while in a push up position. What I enjoyed was doing the Planks with my friends because it went harder when we started laughing. What my next steps are is to try make the Fitness Exercises harder to get a little bit fitter.

Last Kiwi Sport Session playing Basketball

WALT: Play Basketball games to improve our dribbling skills

Today at 9:40 we went down to the bottom courts to have our last Basketball session with Coach Peter and Coach Hyram. When we got down there we had to jog from 1 end of the court to the other 3 times. Then we played Golden Child. If you's don't know what Golden Child is it is when you sort your group into 2 groups, (1 group was called Cavaliers and the other was Currymuncha's).  To play the game 1 group has to stand at 1 corner and run the whole court until you get to the last corner while the other team has to shoot and if they get it in the person that's running has to stop where they are. When we played the 1st round we lost then we played 2 more and we lost the game.

Then we played Sideline Basketball. Sideline Basketball is when you sort your group into 2 teams(we stayed in the same team we were in when we were playing Golden Child) and each group has to stand behind the half court line facing the opposite direction. For example if my team was shooting to the left hoop we would stand at the back of the half court line and run to the right hoop then go grab the ball. We had to run when we calls a number for example if we had 10 players in my group he would call out any number and that much people have  to run and play Basketball. We Won that game and it was time for us to go and line up with Kelly.

The challenges I had during this lesson was getting the ball because every time I get the ball the opposite team would always take it off me so that was 1 challenge. The other challenge was shooting while played Golden Child because I was laughing hard and it was a distraction to my shooting so then I missed. My last challenge was running in Golden child because my legs were sore and I had to run to the other corner and i got there.

I had 3 best times during this session 1 of them was playing Golden child because everyone was laughing and we had good times while playing Golden child because everytime I shoot Losana and Akanesi laughs so we did it to each other. My other best time was working together while playing Sideline Basketball because everyone got the ball and passed it to everyone. And also  my best time was doing the chant at the end because we got to say Tamaki.

What I didn't like about this lesson was shooting for Golden Child because I kept on missing and I could've at least got 1 in but I didn't. I also didn't like a little bit about this session is that people keep going out of the court. WHy I didn't like this session because when someone goes out and the ref see's it they don't call it so that's what I didn't like in this session.

What I learned was to run a dribble because I don't really run and bounce the ball because I am use to playing netball.

My thoughts on this Basketball session is that we should work more as a team. My feelings on this session was happy because everyone participated in the games and warm ups. If I got to rate this session I would rate it 10. I would rate it 10 because it was a fun session and I wish we had these kinds of session before.
