I am Hope Treasure Hunt.

 Two weeks ago at Paihia School we did a Treasure hunt to raise money for I am hope foundation run by Mike King. In this picture is my friend Warren getting a prize from our Principal Mrs Lindsay. The prizes were rose gold headphones, eskimo pies, five dollars, a soccer ball, a handball, a  chicken and chips voucher  from foursquare and a packet of lollies. My favourite prize was the rose gold headphones. The rules were when you find a picture of gumboots you have to take it to the teacher and your only allowed one picture at a time. What would your favourite prize be out of them all?

MY Work I Absolutely Love Kawa of Care

 This term in Te Ngahere, we have been learning about Kawa of Care for are Chromebooks. The Kawa of care is when you take care of your Chromebook. I made a poster about three of the Kawa of Care rules. It was hard to find the pictures for it and it was really easy to write down the sentences. Do you have to follow Kawa of Care?

Creative Te Reo Maori DLO

 Kia ora, This term we have been making Maori DLOS for sports sentences. We had to learn some phrases about Maori sport sentences to because we had to learn how to pronounce the correct word right. Here are some of the Maori sentences I learnt, I tenei ra, I haere nga tamariki  ki te papa takaro which in english it means The children went to the sports field and here is my favourite one I ako ratou ki te mahi kirikiti which in english it means They learnt how to play cricket. For me it was hard to say the maori words but I practiced over and over again until I said the correctly, also it was easier to find the words than say them.Do you know how to speak Maori?

Mosaic Art

 Kia Ora I have been doing a project called mosaic art for one of our class  activities. I used the tool called polyline and I did it on a google drawing you need to make sure that you have a space between each shape. I did a horse and an elephant for mine. It was really hard and challenging because at the beginning I was doing a person which was hard because I couldn't find the right colors, at the last minute I changed to do two animals and it was super fun. What animal would you use?

Famous Wonder Facts

 

 Hi it’s Mahana, last week our class Te Ngahere started to do an activity called the Wonder Project. The Wonder Project is a program that teaches young people about rockets and engineering. I think  it was easy when I got to choose the jobs I wanted to do. When I was finding facts it got a bit harder for me because I didn’t really understand the words some of the words I did not understand are sensors and develop. We had to choose two careers to write about, The careers I chose was Mechanical engineer and  Chemical engineer. Have you participated in The Wonder Project before?Wonder Project Slide

 

Fitness For Cross Country

Hi It’s Mahana from Paihia School. I have been doing  fitness for cross country practise. At the start we do  10 high knees, then two push ups and then we do sit ups for thirty seconds. After that we ran from post to post, then we got free time on the field. I think that fitness can be really challenging but It is really good for my  body. Do you like cross country and fitness?
