Fabulous Fly Cricket

Tena Koutou Katoa,  on the 21st of October a cricket coach called Neal came to Paihia School and showed everyone how to use a cricket bat and how to play a game of speed cricket. For me It was hard to concentrate on the ball while being in a stance, position and hitting the ball with the bat. It was easier to  be the backstop than hitting the ball. Have you played  speed cricket before?  

Some Art I Absolutely love

Hi guys I have an update for the art that I have been doing in class and I am now up to my good copy. For me it can be hard to draw continuous lines because I am use to drawing with my wrist and not with my shoulder. It was hard to blend the colors at the beginning but then I watched a video of how to blend colors together and it got a little easier for me. Have you ever done something like this before?

My 1st Campout in Haruru Falls

For dinner we had sausages with bread and for dessert we had banana cake. Ava brang a packet of chips to eat while we watch a movie, Maya, Sarah and I bought Marshmallows and lollies. Maya, Ava, Sarah and I also played a game of uno. Maya and I were sleeping in the same tent and Sarah and Ava were sleeping in a different tent.

My Most Amazing Creativity To Share

 Kia ora, I have been learning to measure length and area and construct a scale model of a castle. It was hard to make because you had to measure and cut cardboard and tape or glue the cardboard shapes together. The easy thing for me was to make it into a castle. I enjoyed making the castle though. Have you measured out a castle before?

 

Check Out This Great Music.

  Last week in Te Ngahere we started doing Chrome Music Lab which is a site that you can create rhythms music and things like that. We started doing the rhythm lesson, then we moved on to the melody lesson. I found it easy to create a rhythm because I could understand what a rhythm would sound like. I found it a little harder to create a melody because I didn't really know what it sounds like. My favourite lesson was the rhythm lesson because I enjoyed making different rhythms.Here is a link to Chrome Music Lab.Have you used Chrome Music Lab before?

Fabulous Fly Movies

 In Te Ngahere we have been filming  movies for a couple of weeks . Most of the groups finished their movies on time. My group finished our movie on time and our class got to watch it. It was really funny in one bit but then I couldn’t really understand my movie. My favourite movie was Almost There because it was a really catchy rap to listen to, Almost There was made by Stilly from my classroom. Did you like my movie?

Sharing My Knowledge On Te Reo

 Last week in Te Ngahere we started doing te reo maori for the weather and we started to read a book called Nga Tohu O Tawhirimatea  which in english translates to The Signs of Tawhirimatea. Here's two of the phrases I have been learning  he aha nga tohu o Tawhirimatea mo tenei wiki in english it means what's the weather forecast this week and A te raapa ka heke te ua which in english means on Wednesday the rain will fall. The hardest for me was to get the right pronunciation for the maori words. The easiest for me was to remember which picture goes with the maori kupu. Have you done Te Reo before?
