Rippa Rugby

L.I: To have fun with Rippa Rugby

This week we did Rippa Rugby. First we did drills to warm us up. What we did was we get in to group and the person in front has the ball and they have to pass the ball back to the other person. When catching we had to make a W shape and catch the ball. After that the last person will have to throw to the other person on the opposite side and do the same thing back. After that we played Rippa rugby. We tried our best but we ended up in a draw. I had fun and I would like to play again. 

Explorers and Adventurers

Explorers and Adventurers are people who travel discover new things. Explorers are people who travels to discover new sources and record them for the community such as Tupaia, Amelia Earhart and Jean Batten.

Adventures are people who travel to take part in something for themselves such as David Livingstone, Sir Peter Blake and Bear Grylls. 

Explorers and Adventurer need to have or show many different attitudes and attributes such as caring because then other explores or adventures can feel comfortable and included in journeys.

Both Explorers and adventurers travel to new places and need similar qualities although their goals are different.

L.I: To summarise and retell a text

Today I read The Thirteen. The author is James Phelan and the illustrator is Terry Denton. In this book the main characters are Sam, Rapha, Maria and Phoebe. The 3 things that happen in this story were The lemon shark attack, Maria got kidnapped and a secret professor attempted to invade and destroy earth. While I was reading the book I also found new words. I learnt the word lush, Terse and grimace. I thought this book was cool and I would like to read the rest of the series.

Simple Sentence

This week we learnt what a simple sentence was. First we watched a video which explained what a simple sentence is. Next our group had to record mixed up sentences. Then we had to write 5 of our own simple sentences. I created a mixed up simple sentence slide for others to use. I looked forward to others using my simple sentences.
