Monday fun

Hello Kia ora On Monday we had wheels day, slip slide, and swimming. It was so amazing when we got to go on the slip n slide because I got to be with my friends and I enjoyed playing rugby in the swimming pool. I was so enthusiastic when I got to go on the bike because I did wheel tricks and stuff. I learnt how to do tricks. I learnt a new bombing move inside the pool. It was very challenging when I was on the bike. But this Monday was the best Monday ever, I hope you enjoyed our fun day ka kite ano.  Please leave some comments please.

what I loved about this year

  

In term one our school went to the Central ripper tournament. We vs eight team's and the hardest game was the semi final because there coach was so hard on them then we were losing by two points eight to six. After that we never give up and we still won. It was so awesome when I could play with my friends in tournament and I was very happy when I got to be captain oo yeah. My Teacher also thinks that i am going to be an All Black when I am older he thinks I am that good. Then we became champion of the central ripper tournament oo yeah. I hope you enjoyed my learning good bye. 

Thinking Hats slideshow

In the past few weeks we did the 6 De Bono  thinking hats about the Celebration day. We all had to answer all of the questions and on one of them we had to right six sentence. There were six hats and the colours were white, yellow, red, black, green, blue. This slideshow was so hard because the questions were so difficult. I learnt how to reflect to the questions I hope you comment bye. 

Gala day and soap

Hello kia ora In the past two terms my class Waitemata did soap and post. The posted was about the gala day and our soaps we had to make signs of our soap and signs for the gala day. We had to put lots of decorations so people can see what we done for the past term for the gala day. The challenging thing was when we had to find our ingredients for our soap, I learnt how make soap and putting the ingredients in the soap. It was so fun when I got to take a soap home because it smells nice it's fresh it makes you clean, I hope you enjoyed my special soap and gala day story bye.   

novel study

                     
The past few weeks we did our novel study about our novels. My special novel was about two boys named Jonty and Choc. they were best friends in primary and then when they got to intermediate they didn't want to be friends any more because they were getting bulled. It was so hard because it was so long and there difficulty words that I didn't know. I learnt how to be good at school and ignoring people by says bad words. And this book was so special because it was about sports and about friendship. I hope you read my work bye.

the journey

This Term Room Waitemata did maths about a NZ Journey. We were learning all about travelling around New Zealand we had to add up all our Totals. Then I did the first slide it was about planes we had to chose a plane. And I chose new  Zealand air then we had to make the total and the time then we had to add it up the total was $89 and the time was 12:15. It was so hard find the time of the flit and the total because it was the first time I've did that it was so challenge. We also only had a budget of $500 a day it was really hard to try and keep to that. Here are some of the slides of some of the Fun activities that we got to do along the way. 

Our blogging Connections

Then we had to find all the other school that were from Ako Hiko after we had find all the other clusters besides Ako Hiko. After that we had to mark where our families were from. My family are from Tonga. I learned that there are heaps of other schools in other clusters. It was super hard trying to find out who these school were.

Digital Etiquette

 Hey Blogging world, this week on Thursday we did cyber-smart with Gerhard and we learnt what netiquette means. To do this we had to Brainstorm some of the of Dos and what not to do on the internet and what to do good on the internet. We also learnt about what is formal and informal language. When you comment on your school mates works or your family and friends that is usually informal. Formal means is when you are sending an email to your school, teachers, or about a job. I learnt what netiquette means, I learnt what informal means and formal it was challenging when we did a competition I didn't know what informal means and formal. I think I should know what informal means and formal I should work on that. Blog you later bye bloggers hope you check it out.

Collaboration

On Thursday September 14 , Jerhard came to Te Waka Ako, for cyber smart  class.We 

learned how to work in Collaboration.The first box was to find what Collaboration means 

and it means the action of working together. After that we had to watch the video that Jerhard showed us then we had two options, we could just put the video or put a photo and

put a link. Then we had  to write what the word Collaboration meant to us . I think it means helping people, teamwork and friendship. The last box was about the rules of teamwork, Friendship talking to each other and being helpful. What was challenging was when we had to work on one document and other people were deleting the work. I learned Collaboration means it means we have to work together as a team.

Magic Science

Hi bloggers my name is Hame and my school went to see a science show. There were two people that came to teach us crazy science tricks. It was amazing when he showed us his first science magic, it was finger guard trick when he was able to change what finger the guard was on and add guards without us noticing how he did it. It was fantastic when Richard made a big bubble with a bubble stick. Do you know that Bubbles are the thinnest object your eyes can see.  Another cool trick Richard preformed was was when he use his hair dryer to make the ball float in the air what made it float was Fast moving air Pushes up while gravity pulls it down that was so exciting. I learned how to make liquid into a solid with something called polymer nappy powder that was so wicked. I wonder how you could do all this tricks with science. i also wonder if I could be the next crazy best scientist in the world. Blog you later THE END

Matariki

Matariki

The week room 7 is leaning about Matariki there some facts and photos.  

     Matariki is the Māori name for the star cluster known as the Pleiades. Traditionally for Māori when it appeared just before dawn in late May or early June, it signalled the start of the Māori New Year. For some tribes, the rising of Puanga (Rigel in Orion) signals the start of the New Year.     

                                                  

I was so nervous that I was going to drop the ball since my mates passes it at me. The ball felt like it as going so slowly as it came towards me. Then I see a boy start to jump towards the ball. Then I here go Hame go Hame the jump to and then I get the and I see a gap in the side line and I burst through the side and then I see a boy chasing me and I see the try line the I dive for the try. After that I did an impossible try and then the crowd shout for me and then I run to the crowd.

My Rippa Rugby Experience

During the first term two Waikowhai Rippa teams went to Cox's park to compete in the Central Mixed Rippa Competition.

Waikowhai 1 won our three games 4-2, 9-2 and 8-4 and qualified for the quarterfinals where we played against Halsey Drive 1  Beating them 6-3. Waikowhai 2 also qualified for the quarter finals winning 2 of their 3 games but unfortunately they lost in the quarterfinals but they did amazingly well.

In the semifinals Waikowhai 1 played 3 time defending champions…Bay Field scoring the winning try in just before the final hooter winning a tough exciting game 8-7. Meaning Waikowhai 1 were in the finals against Dominion Rd Primary School  Tau’s new school.

In the finals Waikowhai 1  battled it out in our hardest game of the day with the scores tied 8 all at the final whistle. But because we scored the first try the mighty Waikowhai 1  won the whole tournament for the first time in the school's history. Now we are going to Eden park to play, to become Auckland champions  against only 4 other teams from the Auckland.  We hope that you can come and support us in our mission.

Here is a video of me playing. Please feel fee to leave a comment.
