Kiwi can

L.I: To understand emotion

C.P: Kiwi can says, If you feel it, let it out, Don't doubt. Just get it all out.

At kiwi can we played 3 games. How did it feel. First we had high-5 people. Second we had to do 25 star jumps. Third we had to hold our breath and finally we had to do a plank. The first plank was up to 10 seconds, the second one was up to 30 seconds and the last one was up to 1 minute. I managed to hold a plank for 1 minute and felt proud for achieving that goal. Our second game was guessing the scene the group is doing and the emotion. My groups scene was on stage at a talent show. At the end we played GKQ.

MOTAT

At MOTAT LS1, LS2 and Room 5 created flash lights and electric cars. First we had to find out how the light turn on. Once we figure that out we had to make the flash light base. It was difficult and never got to finished it. Next we had to make electric car. Me and Elaario created a car by using a motor, a battery pack with wires, cardboard, axle, wheels, scissors, tape, fan and Straws. We started of good but then we had difficulty through connect the wires to the motor to make the fan spin. We didn't finished our electric cars but it was a fun activity.

Commenting

L.I: To give compliments


I commented to a person named Spelman. I commented him on his Basic facts blog post. On his blog post is just his Learning intention and his blurb about how long he did all ten boxes.

Basic Facts

L.I: To remember basic maths facts

I did basic facts up to ten. I did addition. I did the speed demon challenge. The speed demon challenge is when you do addition or subtraction up to 5, 10 or 20. Then you get a stop watch. Once you start the stop watch you have to complete all 10 boxes. It took me 4 minutes and 25 seconds to complete all 10 boxes.


Mixed Word Problems

L.I: To solve word problems of different types

For maths I had to solve maths word problems with Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Proportions and Ratios. I mostly used the place value and rounding numbers strategy. Addition is adding. Subtraction is taking away. Multiplication is skip counting. Division is the opposite of Multiplication. Proportions and Ratios is when we give a statements that two ratios are equal.


H.I.I.T

L.I:To do exercises.
For HIIT we did three activities.HIIT stands for high intensity int interval training.We did:

  • Pullups
  • Pressup
  • Moutain Climbers
  • Squat Challenge

There are two ways to do Mountain Climbers. The first way
is to go on the ground and get into a press up position.Then 
try to make your knee's touch your elbow.To do that pretend your 
running.The other is to do it standing up.So you lean your hands on 
something and try to make your knee's touch your elbow .To do that is to
do high knee's.


There is one way to do a press up. The easy way
is to put your feet in the air and knees on the ground,pushup
and down.The hardest way is one leg on the bottom and the other leg
onto the leg on the bottom,pushup and down.


To do the pull ups you go the ground. So there is two ways. One way is to 
put your legs flat on the ground and then pull up. The other
way is that you knee's are up and then you just pullup.


The squat challenge is a challenge to test your leg muscles. To do it there are song playing called bring sally up.When the songs
says bring sally down we bring it down and when
it say bring sally up we have to bring it up.

Mars and Neptune

LI: to investigate the likely of humanity living on the other planets in the Solar system.
This week Inquiry we had to make a presentation and show it for Inquiry. It was planets and if they can sustain life. The planets we did was Neptune and mars.

And had more right information and had more detailed pictures about the planet.

SSR Selfie

L.I: To summarise and retell a text

I summarised a text from a book about Energy & heat. I learnt 2 new words which were " Substance and Carriages". Substance means a particular kind of matter with uniform properties. Carriages means a wheel support to move heavy objects. The facts I learnt were was A hot substance can give out heat energy to warm its surroundings. Thos book was illustrated by Grace Jones and the author is Ian McMullen. I thought this book was really interesting because I didn't know that many facts about energy and heat.
