Warming up - P.E

Hey guys! Today in P.E we have been working in our teams again for P.E

When have chosen a sport to teach the two classes our game and our game is bench ball. 
The rules to bench ball are:

1 - No running with the ball
2 - No knocking the ball out of other people’s arms
3 - If the person on the bench catches the ball then the person that throws the ball goes on the bench
4 -  one person on the bench to start with 
5 - whoever gets all the players on the bench wins 
6 - if you are the last person you can bounce  the ball once 

Gears:
Two benches and a ball

We have also made a session plan we have to do a body warm-up and two drills are body warm-up is Lunges, Star jumps, Jogging up and down the court were playing on and our two drills/ games are piggy in the middle and sneak up on granny (How to play piggy in the middle  Piggy in the middle is a game where you are in a group of three and someone is in the middle and two people are on the other side. The goal of the person in the middle is to get the ball and when they get it they will swap places with whoever threw the ball. The goal of the people on the sides is to pass the ball.) This will help with passing, throwing and intercepting.  How to play sneak up on granny. sneak up on granny is a game where someone stands at one end of the gym and everyone else will stand at the other. The one student by their self will turn around at random times when that student turns around all other players must stop moving. The role for students that must stop is to move toward the solo student to touch them. The role of the solo student is to stop the other players from touching them. If the solo student sees the players moving they will say that they did and the spotted student will go back to the start. so we get used to stopping at random times because we can’t run or move with the ball at all or else the ball goes to the other team)

New hurumanu P.E

Hello, welcome back today I will be telling you about our new hurumanu P.E

We have been doing fitness testing I think we do fitness testing to show where we are at in our fitness level. I have not been able to do any of this because I was away on Monday day one of the lessons and I have been injured on Thursday today anyways on Monday they did Vertical jump, Sit-up and reach, sit-ups and the grip test. Thursday today they did the beep test.

So we were also put into teams of nine or so on Monday they chose a team name the name is very different the team name is french fries.
We have also chosen three lines from the graduate profile we have chosen I can work successfully with others I understand how my actions and feelings can affect others and last but not least I can help someone how is in need of help. How do I show these: 


1 and 3) How do I work successfully with others and how do I help someone when they are struggling?
I can cheer them on when struggling 
2) How do my actions and feelings affect others?
The make them happy when I have cheered them on.

      Art hurumanu


      In Art, we have been using stop motion and drawing in our hurumanu books we did research on some other artists.

      But before that, we got organised a mix of groups from the classes. We got a start on our storyboards. The next session we were working on what angels there are to name a few birds-eye views, worms-eye view, low view, Neutral view last but not less high view. After that, we looked at the different types of styles we can use for stop motion. Clay Mation, Whiteboard animation and using objects as characters on this topic we watched some videos. 



      I learned to use different sites that I didn’t know were there to use. That the people I worked with are fun to work with. Being able to work with different groups. I enjoyed making the charters because we got to make them just how we wanted. I found difficult is that the pens went missing halfway through the lesson.
      Here is the unfinished work:

      What is my next step... To get the work finished

      Math time

      So last week in Math we worked on Tenths  Hundredths Thousandths/ Place value
      This week  Haylee and I have made a DLO on this subject. We have made an I movie here it is:
      How Can I improve my work?
      1. I think I should post faster and earlyer in the week 
      2. I should make it more clear
      What I did well?
      1. My writing has improved 
      2. I worked fast-ish on my work
