Maori Language Week

 We have been learning how to greet in maori, ask what the other person's name is as well as ask how the other person is feeling, including saying goodbye. We used Storyboard to create our cartoon characters.

Change the things you can and accept the things you cannot change

 

Today we had our Bounce Back programme and we learned that you can change things in your life for the better.  Things that are done are  done and can't be undone. What it means is that if someone says something mean and you start a fight but then after a while you go apologize and that person apologize back then its done and cannot be undone. Do your best to keep trying to solve problems and change things you don't like in your life. Sometimes you can't change a situation because it is not within your control. There is no point in getting upset over what you can't change as it won't make any difference to the situation.  

 Today Mr. Naidoo told us to do our Pepeha and this is mine.

Ko Mt Wellington te māunga

Who's to Blame?

 

Today we had Bounce back and Michelle was talking about blaming yourself or other people

or just equally blaming each other. The first task we had to do was to tell Michelle how we felt in lockdown. 

The next task she told a story about a boy that stole his sisters phone without permission,

then she said," He left the phone in his bag in his class and someone stole it". Then 

Michelle gave us another task. The task was to circle the sentence you think is

right for the question.

Before we got into the task Michelle told us to get into groups and disgust what you think 

is best for the question. Before you could even start the task you had to read the story before

you can answer the question but it was not really like a question but the same. 

There were four stories and all of the stories reflect on blaming yourself or others and how big 

was your bad luck.

She told another story after the task the story was about 2 friends that played basketball

and they were in the semi finals but they lost by 1 point, but 1 friend got angry because 

the other players showed up late and didn't play well. But the other friend was happy but

two players came late and their super star was sick.

Don't blame anyone because you might blame the wrong person and the 

person that done it got away. How would you feel? 

Digital tech

 

On Monday room 11 had digital technology in the morning, when we got into the hall
there was a man named Matua Tamati and he tough us about digital technology.
The first step was to get into threes I was with Roimata and Joesph.The next step was to pick
someone from your group to get an ipad.

After that we had to build objects like a tree, bird, ice-cream and a house, then he told
us some words like input, process, output, storage, algorithm and csi, csi means clear,
step by step simple and instruction. The next day we got to do some coding,
coding is giving someone or something instructions so they make can it to the other side.
We got to use mbot, mbot is a little robot that you can control with a device.

Some of us done wheelies and some send it back and forward but we only got
a little time to play. On Wednesday we went back to the hall in the second block.
Matua Tamati said," Today we will be playing some games with mbot".  Then we
got into 4,3 and 2's my group was me, Ngapera and Joesph, we got  a ipad and an and
our mbot drifter. Then we had to make a circle and make sure mbot doesn't touch you or
escape.

After that we got into a big circle and Matua told us to put our mbots into the middle and who ever gets tagged they have to turn on their lights and spin around and run after other mbots.
After one game we played the last one standing it was easy.

How to play the last one standing?

There would be a tager and other bots, the tager has his or hers lights on and then they spin
after spin they tag other bots and when they get tagged they turn on they lights and help the
tager and then when everyone got tagged and there is one more bot left that bot is the winner.

How to play Leader strike

We are learning to write explanations.

I have explained how to play Leader Strike

Leader Strike is a game that is exciting, fun and cool. Leader strike is a game that you can play in your free time and you can play it with your friends. You can challenge them or be a team with them and challenge other players. At my school and in my class most of the boys like to play most of girl like to play girl games sometimes one or two like to play with us, Leader strike is game that you can do teamwork, aim and have fun.

 First you need to know how to move. To move you have to get used to using the up, down side to side keys but that is only for the ones that want to move with your right hand. If you want to use your left hand you have to use the w a s d keys. Once you have gotten used to it, it will be easier for you to move your person. Second you have to know how to use the jump bar.  To use the jump bar you just need to tap the spacebar. While you tap the spacebar try using the moving keys. It might be hard but when you try it, it will be easy on both hands.

 After you get used to moving while tapping the spacebar now you need to know how to shoot. This step will be the easy one, you just need to move and tap the mouse. Finally you just need to aim because when you play Leader strike, players like to jump around and then it will be hard to shoot them.

 Leader strike is fun and when you play it you will have fun. There are different places you can choose so when you play leader strike make sure you sign in because it will be cool and you get cool guns. Also when you kill the players you get money and then you can buy cool guns, but if you sign in you get a cool gun. So if you want to play leader strike well you going to have fun.

The people who play leader strike are young students that are 8,9,10
sometimes 11 year old boys or girls, the girls don’t really play it only

you can get money. The strategy of the game is to get as many kills
as you can get so when the time runs out you win and if you are logged in

Leader strike is a game that you can do a lot. You can even buy guns when
you die but you need money. How you get money you need to get as many
kills as you can. There are different  types of guns. The guns are a shotgun,
sniper, rpg, pdr ausstle rifle, double barrel shotgun, and a minigun.
