Kiwi Can

For kiwi can today we learnt about being a role-model and who is our role model. Last week we talked about listening to others. For our energizer we played the game hammer down. We played it and it was really fun then we moved onto our talking session where we talked about who and what our role-model does (My role model is my mum.) Then for our activity we played picture it. Its where you get into groups and try to make the shape with our body (Hands, Feet, Head Etc.)

Kiwi Can Leadership

At Kiwi Can we learnt about Leadership. This is really important this year because we are the senior students at Panmure Bridge School. We need to take risks, show confidence and be a role model for our junior students. Being a leader is hard and is something we never stop learning about. Confidence comes with practise and sometimes getting it wrong.

Place Names

For Inquiry we had a map of New Zealand and marked all of the placed with names in them but not just any name. We found the names of early explorers (Kupe, Captain Cook and others.) There were some places that I didn't know that it was named after a early explorers.

Charting our islands

Today for reading we were finding about the early explorers Kupe and Captain James Cook. First we summarised about the word that were important in the story of kupe. Then we asked some questions and picked 3 that we could awnser. after that we found some word's we didn't understand then we used our searching skills to fnd out the words we didn't know. Then for our word bank we had the word navigate and it was difficult to find other words relating to navigate. After that we talked about the problems from the past and the present. Then we linked our Venn Diagram to the slide so when you click on the venn diagram you can see the actual venn diagram. Finally we've  completed our work of with our question matrix.

Kiwi Can

For Kiwi Can we had an energiser called up and down. The energiser was about fliping cone either up or down and our team was good at it. I was the best at it I gave our team lots of points and the energiser was really fun that the last person on our team had to chose the player she wanted. After that Mr seamanu picked someone to come up with him and tell the story with him. After the story he told us we had to cheer karlos up with positive communication and if he has his head up he's happy (+1 Point) and if he still has his head down we lose a pint (-1 Point) and the other team won. Our activity was called street fighter we had 5 instructions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. 1 was to punch once, 2 was double punch, 3 kick, 4 was upper cut and number 5 was HADOUKEN. The game was simple there were 2 teams the Karate Kids and the Ninja Clan, I was in the ninja clan and was nearly good as my apponent but my apponent beat me to it and then our team won.

It was really fun because the other got to make their final design for their work but we had to wait because some of our images weren't ok so we found some other images to fix our final designs. Mine was headphones because it represents the music that I have inside of me.
