Week 4 Term 2

 This week has been great!

On Monday, at assembly Mr McCabe talked about bullying and walking on the grass. Mr Denize talked about all the sport opportunities at the moment such as AIMS, WIMS and interclass volleyball and dodge ball. Mr Ellis invited all the students that were receiving a S.H.I.N.E Band and told us what the focus was for the week. It is We include others- We show kindness.

On Tuesday, we had tech in the morning. We did more P.O.E.W's. We did a balloon rocket race. We had to design, build and make it work. I was in a group with Emma, Bobby and Jess. We took longer than expected because we were trying to it our own way and not like everyone else. Unfortunately we had to change our idea to be like everyone else's :(. For reading my group learnt about all of the different points of views that a book is written in. You can have First person, Third person, Third person limited, Third person objective, Third person omniscient. The Third person views are quite hard to tell the difference between because there are only small differences between them.


On Wednesday, we did Otago Problem Solving. Some of the questions I found really hard and I didn't know how to work them out and some I thought that some were quite easy. I got 2 out of 5. We had Jump Jam leaders at lunch time to do our new routine Uptown Funk for W.I.M.S. After lunch we had a French lesson. We learnt how to say how we are feeling and ask how are other people are feeling. We also did jump jam where I helped teach the new jump jam song, Freaks. The team picked it up really quickly. It was really fun to expirence what it is like to teach a new song to the team.

On Thursday, we had a house meeting for inter house winter games. I am doing Netball. In the morning we did a word puzzle. I found it really fun, yet really challenging. Apart from that the day was really relaxing.

On Friday, we found out that there was going to be no sport happening as the weather was a bit on the cold side. Anyway, tech arts was really fun we learnt about forces like gravity. After learning about this we started making a marble track. I am working with Emma. We have a really good design planned. Crossed fingers that it works!!! 

On Saturday, I had netball. We had our first win since grading. YAY!!!



Thats pretty much it for this week I hope that you had a good week as well.
