New Zealand Logo

This term our topic is based on the Olympics. Based on this task we had to make an Olympic Logo based on our country ( New Zealand)  . We had to make a logo if our country was hosting the Olympics.  I thought that this logo suited it the best  because the colour black represents the colour on the Maori flag.  Since there was 4 stars on our flag it would make sense if we had 4 stars on our logo. I thought to add 2 flags to our logo because it reminds me of our passport logo. Then I added in the Olympic rings because every single logo that is part of the Olympics has to have the rings on it. 

Run Jump Throw

Today at our lesson for Run, Jump, Throw we learnt the positions of staring a race and what to do and what not to do. So first to get us warmed up we played a little game of Octopus. Now we revised some skills for our running. One of them was check to check, high knees, look straight ahead , standing up tall. We now went on the starting positions for running. She told us to never look at the starter because this way you will get put off by others, you will not go your fastest and you will not go in straight line.  The activities we played were mostly partner work. So first we played a game ( I was partnered up with Cecilia (Cecilia's blog ) so we were in the middle of the court we then had cones placed behind us the first one to get it would win.  I think our lesson was really fun I can't wait for our next lesson. ( Thank you Andy) 

Diet of Olympians

For the first two weeks of the term we have been learning about Olympians diets. We learnt about what kind of foods they eat and what they can't eat.  We also learnt the definitions of Protien, Energy, Carbohydrates and Fat. I found this very interesting because I heard these words but never knew the actual definitions.    For this task I worked with Nazella and Zeba. 

The Big Sleepout

Today in reading we red an article called " Big sleep out participants deal with night of extreme weather".  This was about Auckland community supporting homeless people. People experienced what it was like to be like them . From other reviews people said they had sore backs, not enough sleep and rough ground.  To find this information we used three sources of information we used a video an article and another article. So I learnt that I had to be more grateful because I have just realized that other people don't get what I  have right now. In the next event I would really want to participate in this. 

Hoverbike advertisement

In writing our main focus is advertising. In this task we had to make our own advertisement showcasing a hover -bike.  For this task I worked with Nesi we were trying to make this stand out but we wanted the colours to be easy to read. We tried to aim for kids and  teenagers because they will be more interested in the product other than adults who won't be interested.  If this advertisement was real I would want to buy this because it is good layout and has words that will hook you in. 

Recalling my timestables

Today we played a game called Quizizz this game was basically a quiz game but to recall our timestables. Our whole class had a race who would come first I came 1st and 2nd. I thought I did pretty well considering I knew all of my timetables. I thought the timetables were easy because I already knew it.  I think I would want to this again because it was challenging how fast I could get it.
