Division Recap

Today for maths we did a division recap on a birthday party, our task was to divide different eqautions and make them equally the same. My partner Chris and I found this task easy and fun to do. I enjoyed making the DLO with my partner and I enjoyed working out the answers.

Read Theory Results

Today for reading we have been looking at our read theory results and we have been looking at how far we have got in our progress levels, these are my read theory results, I'm not impressed with my results because I went from level two to level three to level four then I went back down to level two. This term my goal for read theory is to get to level four and consistantly strive to achive it.

For this activity we made an advertisement poster for a gym in the local area and on it we included how much the cost or price was and the age you had to be to join which was Fourteen years of age. We also included the price of a gym membership, fees, and the price to be at a gym for a whole year, and all up the price add's up to $742. 88 or $14. 29 a week.

HIIT Training

Today for HIIT we were doing tabata timing and our excercises were push ups, squats, tap step, and star jumps. Todays workout session was good because everyone showed commitment and teamwork when we were having technical issues with the devices. For our warm ups we have started to use fortnite dances as well as our normal warm up techniques, we started using fortnite dances because it was a way of putting exercise and fun together.

Skytower Experience

Today we went to the Skytower for part of the day to learn about different structures in Auckland because our topic for inquiry is about man made structures. The Skytower is the tallest man made structure in New Zealand and weighs up to twenty one million kilograms, the equivalent to six thousand elephants, the skytower has one thousand two hundred and sixty seven stairs that continuously go from the base to the highest public observation level, which is the sky deck. Going to the Skytower was my first time. We are learning lots about different types of structures like bridges and other man made structures around the world and in New Zealand.

Wheel words

Today for reading we played wheel words, this was one of the easiest ones I did because the first word I found was Corkscrew. I also found almost six obscure words, obscure words are extra words that are not on the list. Today I found fifteen out of twenty one words.

Scaled Drawing

This week we have been working on and finishing off our scaled drawings for maths week. On the smaller grid the width and height of the frame was 12x10. The way I have drawn out my grid or frame is by ruling out 1cm of sqaures up, down, and across the page, then I moved on to my enlarged grid. But before I did that I did my lable which had my name, what we were doing, and the ratio on it which was 1:2. On the enlarged grid which was on a (A3 sized paper), I doubled the measurents so they were 24x20 and ruled a grid or a frame with 2cm sqaures. The thing that was hard for me was to go sqaure by sqaure and draw out the image carefully. This was my first time doing this activity so it was a bit of a challange, but I think I still need a bit more practice. The best part about doing this activity was drawing out the image and seeing how most parts of the image look alike.

HIIT Training

Today for HIIT we tryed something different and did only two workout techniques which were push ups and fast star jumps, for our warm up activity we played a game called Whano Whano.

Pechaflikr

This week for writing we were finishing off our pecha flickr storys that we had started on last week. For this writing activity we were working in parters, my partner was Christopher, the first thing we did was our pechaflikr slides then we did the story plan.When we had finished that we voice recoreded each other reading the story plan using ScreenCastify. The fun part about this activity was using ScreenCastify to voice record the story plan, because when we first started we didn't know how to do it. This week our group was learning how to structure or order a narrative story, and we were also learning how to link ideas between paragraphs to make a connection. In this narrative we were working on using strong words to paint a picture with words to not tell what was happening.

HIIT Training

Today for HIIT we have been working on our workout techniques and have been improving more and more every time we do it.Every HIIT session we have, we do six warm ups ten times and then we go into our exercises.Today's excercises were Squats, Tap step, Push ups, and Star jumps.These excercises are very tiring but we all try to put in as much effort as we can, every HIIT session our goal is to get everyone into the red zone which we achieved the last HIIT session we had.

Rugby League Tournament

Today we had a League tournament against two other schools which were
Pt.England and Sylvia Park, there was only three teams that had entered but each team played two games each against the other two schools, all together we played four games.We won two games against Sylvia Park and lost two games against Pt. England, so we came second place out of the whole tournament.
The score was 3-4 for the first game and for the second game was 7-2 against sylvia. A big thank you to all the Parents and Panmure Bridge supporters who came to support us, and another big thank you to Mr Ogilvie for taking us down to the field and for coaching us to the best of our ability.
