Last week on Friday the whole class made an artwork for our calendars. 

Here is the steps to make your own calendar art: 

1. Make a rough sketch of what you want to draw on your page with a horizon line in the middel. 

2. Use cool colours like blues, greens and purples to paint the water. Blend the colours to make it look watery and use white paint to add moonlight or sunlight on the ripples. 

3. Use warm colours like red, orange and yellow to paint the sky. I painted a sun rise growing from the horizon.

should Matariki be a holiday

W.A.L.T write about why Matariki should be a holiday

Today and yesterday the whole class went on a website called kiwi kids news, on the front page was should Matariki be a holiday? I think It should be because it's apart of New Zealand's history.  so theirs no reason for it to not be a holiday. It is very special to the pakeha and the Maori, I don't know why it's not already a holiday. matariki is believed to mark a Maori new year The beginning of an entirely new year for the native people of New Zealand! so why is the "holiday" pase by every year without much notice As a nation, we should be celebrating this day, just as we celebrate January 1st each year. I mean, who doesn’t love a good old New Year’s celebration? Who wouldn’t want to celebrate twice right?

Our bodies need food like vegetables and water. That type of food will get you fit and healthy.

Kiwi can

WALT. co-operate as a team


Kiwi can started as usual. We started of with a game that is  called Beer salmon mosquito.  This is how the game works. First you talk to your group about what you are going to do beer, beer  beats salmon, salmon beats mosquito, mosquito beats beer. Don't ask me how? I don't know either. And the other team has to do the same thing. The next game that we played was a ball skate board game. The game goes like this. There is 4 groups of 5 .One person goes on a skate  board and try's to get the balls in the middle with a ice cream bucket but only one ball  at a time and the skate boarder can not touch the ground! And whoever who has the most balls win. We didn't do GKQ this time but its fine I don't know why.

Aroha Island camp

WALT upload a google drawing of Aroha island 

Last week, Wednesday 18th of Nov to the Friday 20th Nov, the year 5's, 6's and some 7's from Kereru and Tui whanau went on their end of year camp. This was at Aroha Island, near Kerikeri. We did lots of activities and exercise while we were there. We camped in tents, went hiking and kayaking. We went on this end of year camp, so we  could learnt to protect the animals and make us aware of our environment around us.                                                 

Here is my camp reflection:

Have you been to Aroha Island before?

waitangi trip

 WALT reflect on our class trip 

On Tuesday we went to Waitangi. But the trip was an hour an a half.  Once we got there it was amazing but the hand sanitiser was odd. The first thing we did was the welcome and introduction but the main thing was the coding. We learnt how to make games and quiz's and  my buddy was Callen as you will see it here. After the coding we had a little run around and after a long day we went on the bus to home. 


 






What did I enjoy? looking at all of the ancient artifacts 

What did I learn? how to code and some of the Maori culture 

What did I find interesting? learning all of the culture and coding 

Have you gone to waitangi before?

kiwi can is back!!!

 WALT upload kiwi can and write about it 

Today we did kiwi can! It was so nice being back. The word that we learnt was accountability, this means being honest and taking ownership for what you have done. At the end of the day we got 3 stars for our engagement and behaviour and I was the kiwi caner. A kiwi caner means you have been noticed as a stand out student for the day and you also get to choose how many points the class gets awared. Our new catch phrase was " we are honest we are true we take ownership for what we do". This catch phrase is to help us remember what the word accountability means in a shape of a song. After the catch phrase we played 2 games, the first game was high tide low tide. This game is when the teacher says low tide you go down on your chair and when the teacher says high tide you stand up of your chair. The next game was impossible connections, all of the game were fun and helped us to be accoutable. Here is a picture of what we did today

What did we enjoy? I enjoyed doing all of the games because it was fun and I didn't even realise it was teaching me how to be accountable for my actions. 
What did you find interesting? I found all of the new great games because I hadn't played them before.

Have you went to kiwi can before
