Kiwi Can|resilience|Understanding emotions

LI:To learn how to self-control

This week for kiwi can our theme was resilience and out topic was understanding emotions and our catch phrase for this week our catch phrase was, "Kiwi can says control yourself don't shout kiwi can over and out. 


Energizer
Today our energizer was called rats and rabbits. We had to find a partner and we had to stand on the opposite side facing each other. Then our kiwi can teacher gave us a cone to put in the middle, then our kiwi can teacher explained to us what we had to do. He said if he says rats the people on the right side had to try and grab the cone but the rabbits had to try and grab the cone before their partners do. Then he said if he says rabbits then the left side had to try and grab it but the rats had to try and get the cone before their partner does. Who ever wins goes to the next round but on the last round who ever wins that round wins the game.

Activity
This week our activity was the same as last week but this time we got different people in our group and we had to act out something different. Our play was about four kids who were auguring about who is going to drop kick the ball a try and score a try for their team. We had to try and find a solution to this problem. We took a vote to see who is going to kick the ball.

The lion king play

Today Mr Ogilvie's reading group went to watch a lion king play. We got to watch the play because a couple of weeks ago Mr Ogilvie's group did plays as well. The play was 2 hours long but when we watched it, it felt like it was like it was only 20 minutes. Since we are going to come back to school near two o'clock we had to eat our morning tea and lunch and hopefully we won't be hungry. My favourite bit of the play is when Pumba and Timon see Simba. My favourite character in the play was Timon because he was really funny.

Water safety

LI:To learn water safety skills

Today for swimming we did a warm up, our warm up was stream line. We had to do stream line two times. The next swimming stroke we did was freestyle. Freestyle is like stream line but your only adding arm strokes. Our swimming teacher which is James told us we can do rotations instead, when you do rotations that means you have to do six kicks or three arm strokes then you have to turn onto your back. We had to do that three times. The last thing we did was dolphin dives, when you dolphin dives you have to go under water and swim to the platform and if you need to take another breath you can just jump up and then you can go back to doing dolphin dives.

Rube Goldberg|Human machine






LI:To learn about Rube Goldberg 
LI:To make a machine only using our body.

This week we are learning about an inventor called Rube Goldberg. Rube Goldberg is a person who made cartoons and machines. Me and five other people in my group made a google slide showing the three W's and the one H about Rube Goldberg. We got all of the information from google search but we put all the writing on there in our own words because some words that it says on google search we don't know so we had to search up the meaning and then put the meaning on to our google slide.

Two days later we watched a video made by Holden that had one of Rube Goldberg's machines in it. That day we had to try and make a machine like the one on the video but we are only allowed to use our body. We had to combine our group with another group because since every group has six people in it that is not enough people to make a machine. Our task was try and get from one side to other side and open the door by making a human machine. Once we figured out how were going to complete the task we had to do it blind folded. We kind of failed because Elaario missed the door handle.


Ihumatao


LI:To separate the fact from opinion
LI:To identify the main idea in the text

This week we are still learning about Ihumatao. My group had to put the work that we did last week on to a new google slide. We all decided who's doing the things that we need to do before we blog it. Chisa and I did the layout.  David and Lukah put the goggle slides of the work that we did last week on to the other slides. When we went to get feed back our teacher said we had to put the years in order. After that we finally had exactly have what our teacher wanted us to do.

This week for kiwi can our theme was resilience and out topic was emotions and our catch phrase for this week our catch phrase was, "Kiwi can says if you feel it, let it out, don't doubt. Just let it all out. Resilience means coping Challenges and bouncing back.

Energizer
This week our energizer most of the people got a pies of paper that says an a emotion. We had to find people that has a emotion that links with the emotion we had. Once we found the people that has the emotion that links with our we had to put the emotions less to highest feeling. For example my groups order was unhappy, sad, misery and depression.

Activity
This week our activity was kind of the same as last week but the difference is that we can talk when were doing the play. Two people in my group had to bully the other three people. When we were doing the play the other people had to try and figure out what's our emotion.
