Covid writing

This piece of writing Is about all the good and bad memories I had through lock down.

Remember when. Slapping shoes smack onto the concrete as I gasp for air "almost there" says dad as if we had just started the run. Remember when alice screamed at the top of her lungs when I dumped a huge bucket of water some people can take a joke - my sister -can't. Or the time my mate broke the sovele and got in huge trouble. What about when Neko got a black eye for a week when he fell out of his little sisters pram. Remember when I watched three movies in a day. Or the sleep ins that never end.

Remember when I had a whole cake and nearly barfed (the joys of baking). Or the time we found a hidden well in amongst the long cuty grass. Oh and who could forgot the puding galore. But the best thing of all no school no waking up early or hour long assembly it was Heaven. But the best part was I could be annoying to my parents the whole time and there was no business trips to save them. But the big bonus was finally completing the lock down 100 what a mission.

Remember when I was stranded inside a house with absolutely nothing to do yes lock down had it's pro's but it also has it's cons.Some people - especially mothers - love it. But to me it is a minority vegetables. Remember when I wasn't allowed to see anyone except for my sister talk about child crulety. Or not being allowed to go surfing, or a dip in the sea. What about not being able to go to grannys for a yummy roast with the worlds best gravy.

E3L KT

Today in EL3 KT we went out side because it was a beautiful day. You may be wondering what does this have to do with math? We used rakau to play a game that involved angles. You throw the rakau at your partner at an angle between 90 degrees and 20 degrees. I enjoyed this learning because

we learnt a lot and we got to go outside. I would really recommend this game, because it's a good way to learning.



Rakau is a traditional maori weapon that was used as a spear or a club. They are still used today for traditional games. I find rakau  very fascinating, especially the ones with cool patterns and feathers on them.

Cross Country

Today was cross country. It was super fun, I Was really puffed at the end of the race. As a year six we all had to run 2.5 km. My year group is the hardest in the district. I came 6th out of 27. 

To get there we had to walk. It is quite a long walk to get there it took us about in hour to get there. So that gave us a big disadvantage. Especially because year six has to go first. 

I am also house captain so that means I have to encourage my house and get them excited before there race. I really enjoy doing this because we get to do chant offs with the other houses and my house is really getting good at the chant.

When we were all finished I helped pack up. It was really hard getting every single persons lunch box in the car. When we were all done packing up, we started the long walk back to school.

Math strand

Every Tuesday and Thursday morning, in MLH we have to math groups that everyone goes to.
Today in my math strand. I was learning how to measure triangles. Most of the group used protractors. but I used adition to work out the missing angles. the first Time I tried I got the answer wrong and then the teacher helped me and I got all of the other questions right. the people who used the protractors didn't get exactly right, and most of the time you won't get the exact answer if you use protractors. But you will get the exact answer if you calculate it. I found this learning very interesting.

level 3 math!

Today We did some more work on decimals.  I was really glad we did some work on decimals because, I am not the best in this math category. But I was proud of myself when Koka Ngaire gave us some word problems I really pushed my limits and solved the math equations. my buddy Charlie helped me alot when I got stuck. We had a lot of great discussions in that sesion. We also had a turn on a game that I would really recommend it's called decimasters it's fun and you learn a lot.  I am looking forward to learning more about decimals in future.
