Paideia Seminar Reflection.

Today 24/10/18 the Year 7&8 extension class had our Paideia Seminar and we had to talk about statements. I was in the shop owners group with Naomi, Amelia and Sheena including myself. We talked about how shop owners don't really care about what they are selling and just wanting the money and that they don't sell much healthy food then they should be selling.

From my perspective I think that I had improved from our last Paideia Seminar but I also think I couldn't of talked more but not much more maybe another 5 more times and then I would of improved lot's. But I really think I had talked more than the last Paideia Seminar we had.

In our next Paideia Seminar I would like to talk more than 7 times or even 10 times. I just want to talk as much as I can which I know I can talk more but I also need to research a bit more so I can throw the research in my brain and have it ready for the Seminar so I can start talking and sharing my research.

Team 5 Move Ya Body.

This Term we have been learning about our school theme Move Ya Body. At the start of the term our classes did a skill we have never tried before my class did ballet and we performed our ballet in front of our whole team it was fun. After we performed in front or each other we went into small groups and thought of our own skill we would like to learn and perform in front of team 3 and team 5. Most of the people in my class were struggling to come up with  skill so we only had two groups but the rest had plenty of groups. The people in my group were the people who didn't get to think of a skill and so some girls invited us to be part of their dance. Room 4 my class only got 1 and 1/2 week's to practice because our whole class was part of our film festival movie and we were filming every afternoon (make sure you watch it comes out)! We came up with this dance quite quickly but I kind of knew it already so it was pretty easy and I had fun on the day we had to perform.

To look for our movie we crated go on the Manaiakalani Site.

MTV Krib @ KPMG Movie!

Task Description: KPMG is  company in Auckland City. We were lucky enough to have the opportunity to go to KPMG for free. They fed us morning tea and lunch it was delicious.  I would love to go there again. They showed us what they do and what a day in a life is like at KPMG. For our movie we pretended that Charles@Pes owned KPMG at it was his mansion and he had great chefs and a massive kitchen.

Do you always drink water? Drinking fresh water is important because everyone needs to stay hydrated and filled with water if we didn’t have water we would be dry and dehydrated and we could all dye. So in the next paragraphs below I will be explaining how bad it is to have no fresh water to drink.

Polluted water is not only dirty it is also deadly over 1.8m people die every year of diarrheal diseases like cholera. Families are living in places where they can’t provide fresh clean safe water. Water is like food if we don’t eat for a very long time we could die from starvation just like water. But where some people live they don’t get fresh water for reasons like pollutions too dry and the sun just dries all their water up.

People are dying because most people drink the unsafe water because that is all that they get to drink they drink polluted water and many people die from a disease that was in the water and also die for having no water at all most of these people live without food as well. Most of these people who live without fresh water or lives with no water and no food die and there are probably over a million people who are like this.

So make sure that you are drinking that water at home be grateful and thankful that you get fresh safe clean water unlike the people who has no water or who has polluted dirty water don’t drink the fizzy rubbish drink the water that you got at home it is good for you and it is better than some fizzy drinks be grateful of the water that you have it is better than having no water at all.

What are you guys doing drinking that sugary fizzy stuff that is bad for it may taste nice but drink the water instead. Over 1.8m people die from their polluted water. Stop littering stop polluting save these people stop polluting their ocean our ocean our sea creatures drink the safe water that you get from your tap buy the spring water from the supermarket water is much healthier and better than fizzy drinks. You should be happy unlike the other people around the world they don’t get fresh clean water like you do. Be Grateful and Thankful.

Being Famous or rich would make me happy!

                                                        Statement!
                                 Being Famous Or Rich Would Make Me Happy.

I think being rich would make me happy because I could get my dream everything and I would like to help my family pay bills and provide water and food for my entire family. I would also pay for the water or I will just help buy a house for them so that they don’t have to rent a house.

I would love to buy me a baby Husky and have it for the rest of my life. I would also like to buy my family's dream cars. I would want my family to be happy and I would love to get want they really want. I would also want to meet Cardi B and I could buy a V.I.P ticket where I could meet Cardi B and it will be so cool. I would also help the homeless out and help S.P.C.A.  With a lot of money I would donate to charity’s and go to Bali, Aitutaki, Rarotonga and pay for my whole family to come with me to these three places. I really want to get close to animals like Monkeys, Elephants, Baby Tigers, Giraffes and more it is one of my dreams.

Being Famous I think wouldn’t make me happy  because there are paparazzi waiting for me and people that are famous sometimes get stalked or rob because other people know that famous people have lots of money. I think being rich would make me happy but I wouldn’t tell other people and I wouldn’t really let them know because I don’t want people to like just because I have lots of money. I want people to like me the way I am and not like me because I have money.

Pourquoi Tales

Walt - Think outside the box with our writing.
Deep in the dark, green forest there lived a Unicorn every animal called her Uni because she had no horn. She had thick Rainbow hair on the top of her head to the end of her neck on her back. She was the prettiest animal in the wilds. As Uni galloped through the tall green trees she had a little accident and crashed right into the one of the strong thick trees. Unicorn fell and was unconscious.

Unicorn woke up and met her fairy godmother and magically with her wand gave Unicorn a sparkly colorful pretty horn. They went to never land and celebrated Unicorn’s first horn in the luxury Uni Castle. They both lived in a rainbow house with a leprechaun that celebrated St Patrick's everyday they had 1  million coins to themselves and even slept in it.

Suddenly Unicorns friends back in the boring, green forest had found Unicorn lying down and passed out but Unicorn finally had a horn. Unicorn’s friends splashed water on her and laid her down somewhere more comfier to rest.

The next bright morning Unicorn woke up with excitement and saw her horn. She was happy that her fairy godmother helped her out to be a normal unicorn not a pony. Unicorn played games with her friends and they lived happily ever after.

20 years later Unicorn had passed away she was too old. The day she had died she magically went back to Neverland and saw her family who had passed away she was like in heaven but her heaven. She saw her fairy godmother. Unicorn was amazed and was very excited she couldn’t be happier she saw her family and her mother.

Unicorn’s mom saw her horn and was shocked that she even had a horn because when she was born Unicorn was born very different compared to the other unicorns. She was special without her horn but now she is beautiful with her horn and it all happened because of her fairy godmother.

Fairy Tale!

Walt: Use descriptive vocab to paint a picture in our readers minds!
Three Little Pigs! 

Three fat pigs each wore a hat that were called caps. Each pig had materials Brick, Hay and Wood. In the woods lived a light fluffy grey wolf. The three pink brothers had to create a house each of them built their own house.

The next day Each pig built their stunning houses pig number one was wearing his farmer hat and some overalls. Pig number two was wearing a red and black plaid squared shirt and some suspenders. The third pig had a blue hat with blue overalls with a white shirt underneath. The first brother pig was a farmer and the second brother was a Lumberjack and the third brother was builder.

The three little pigs built their magical houses BUT suddenly the big bad wolf came out and knocked on the weakest house made out of straw and second and third pig shut their doors immediately. “You shall open this door or else I will huff and puff and blow this stupid house down” said the ugly grey wolf. So he did what he said he will do the Wolf huffed and puffed and blew the house down.

The poor little pig ran to house two that was made out of sticks and all three pigs had shivers down their back and all three pigs were terrified. “Open this door so I can eat you both, Or else I will huff and puff and blow this house” said the wolf. The two brothers stayed in the house scared and shocked. The wolf said “Well you asked for it then”. He huffed and puffed and blew all the sticks down.

“Erggh” said the wolf. The two little pigs screamed and sprinted rapidly like Usain Bolt to the bricked house pig three opened his door and shut it after both pig’s entered his house. Pig number three had the strongest house. This time the wolf didn’t say anything he just ran to the house and huffed and puffed and blew. But he was too tired and didn’t blow the house down instead he blew himself down because of how tired he was from huffing and puffing the wolf had fainted and said “Oh fine I guess no bacon for breakfast” SMACK as he fell onto the ground.

The pigs celebrated and cheered they were now safe. “Hooray the wolf is down now we can have our breakfast” said the farmer pig. The three little pigs tied up the wolf on to a tree right and left him to starve because he blew two of their cool houses down. The pigs then decided to build another house out of straw around the brick house then build another house out of sticks around the straw so that they were extra safe. They thought that a wild grizzly bear would come next.

Sustaining Ourselves.

Sustaining Ourselves

We are learning to address the factors that can affect our wellbeing

Next to each of these scenarios write down which area of your wellbeing is being affected - social/whanau, spiritual, mental/emotional or physical. You might find that they affect more than one area

• Going for a run> Physical

• Playing a sports game with others> Social/Family

• Going to church, the marae, temple..>Spiritual

• Listening to your favorite music> Mental/Emotional

• Eating fresh fruit and vegetables> Physical

• Learning from a grandparent or caregiver> Social/Family

• Taking part in a cultural club or activity> Spiritual

• Getting enough sleep> Physical

Imagine you are part of the following scenarios. Make a decision that will positively impact on your wellbeing and note which aspect of your wellbeing is affected.

1. You and your older brother have been given some money to buy food for you and your younger siblings for the next few days. You are tempted to buy take away, but you have to buy enough food for breakfast, lunch (for school/pre-school) and dinner for two days. I would just by food for breakfast and lunch I won’t buy take away because we need food for lunch and breakfast or else we might starve.
2. 
   

You are having a really bad day and feel yourself getting angry and upset. You had a small argument with a friend earlier in the day, but you are now really angry at them. The bell will be ringing in ten minutes and you will have to sit next to this friend. What could you do? Make up and say sorry.

3. You have just changed schools and are missing your old friend and activities. At your old school you played for the school rugby team, but you have not played sport here, except for in P.E. Join rugby at the new school and show off and make friends so the others know that I am good at rugby.

4. If you were Tongan, but your parents were born and grew up in New Zealand. They taught you English since you were born so that you would find New Zealand life easier, but they did not teach you much Tongan. At school you see other students speaking Tongan and participating in Tongan clubs and dancing. Although you feel happy in New Zealand, you wish you could connect to your Tongan roots. I would learn off the website ask my parents to teach me all that they know and learn off youtube and learn dances on youtube I would also ask my friends at school to teach me how to speak tongan.

Inquiry Expo

Inquiry Expo

-----------------------------

Intro--

Kia Ora, Kia Orana, Hello and greetings, this is Paikea unfortunately I was away most fridays at school and I missed being able to create a project for the EXPO we were creating this to expose our project I was supposed to be in a group but I was away too many Fridays and wasn’t in a group I didn’t really know what anyone was doing so just finished my left over work.

Part 2--

The Idea 1 idea that would pop up in my mind would be about force when you push an object it creates force because you are forcing it to move. But I would make it more interesting and crazy in some way and a game that has to do with Force or maybe about equilibrium I would have something like a seesaw but small and when team 4 and team 5 comes look around I would say “One person on one side and the other person on the next side and see if you’s two are equal weight.” And if the people are equal that would be equilibrium and their weight is very similar.

Part 3--

Out of the two ideas I would do the equilibrium idea. I think it would be more interesting and easier to do as a project I could only pick one. So I thought the equal ide was better I would be really keen to do that and I would create a presentation with my group and put all my research and work into the presentation and have my audience read it and I would also put some information in my brain then tell the people face to face as well.

Part 4--

I think that my project would be a success and it would work perfectly or fine and it would turn out good so I believe that it would be right and it will turn out just how I want it to be like and I would only do this if my group agrees with me then it would be a good success.

Part 5--

Next time I would really want to be part of the Expo because looking outside looked very fun and exciting and people were having so much fun and the noise level was very loud and I wish I was at school on friday but I didn’t mind because creating this story was fun and a lot of precious.

Tyler's Swimming Comp!

Walt - Use speech marks correctly in our writing.

“On your marks get set GO!” said the swimming organizer.
As Tyler dramatically dived into the swimming pool nervously.
Tyler’s heart pounded while coming up and out of the water. She gasped for air.
She sprinted the 50 meter pool like a extremely fast fish Tyler had smashed the
others and finished strongly.

Tyler was very proud her family and parents were very very proud she couldn't
be any happier in that moment. The other girls looked at her in a way to make her feel different
she had no idea what she did. Stacy her best friend walked over and said
“That was awesome you went so fast.” Tyler replied and said
“Yeah thanks but those girls are looking at me like I did something wrong.”
Stacy then said “ Who cares about them you won.”

A groups of girls were gossiping in the back room.
“Do you know that girl who swam yesterday at the swim comp.”
“Yea Tyler she was so slow you know I could beat her.” “Yeah right I could beat you and her.”  
Tyler was in the front row of the classroom waiting patiently for her classmates.
She turned her back stared at them then she turned around to the front.
Tyler heard whispers again about her Tyler stood up walked over to the bunch Tyler said
“You wanna talk about me why don’t you just say it to my face.” The girls remained silence.

On Tuesday Tyler had made a competition of her own.
She wanted to prove she is strong and she can beat the people who had said there faster than her she
made the race on a Thursday because she trains every other day. Two days later on Thursday she
was putting her cap and goggles on she was preparing to smash these gossiping girls there were
only 3 of them to beat.

“On your marks get set GO!” said Tyler’s dad. Tyler entered with a powerful confident dive,
while the others bellyfloped. “GO GO GO GO!” said Tylers mum and dad.
Tyler kicked fast and hard she pulled hard and fast she sprinted the hardest she could and had
finished under 20 seconds and took those other girls 2 minutes and 30 seconds. “Well done Tyler.”
said Stacy. Tyler replied “Thank’s.” As she huffed and puffed Tyler was so exhausted and just wanted
sleep.

The day after the race. Tyler walked into her classroom a bunch of girls walked up to her and said
“Sorry for what we did you are fast and we know that you are fast you are extremely fast we just wish
that we were good like you.” Tyler said “Apology accepted but you know allI I did was lot’s of training all
the time, I can also teach you how to swim.” One of the girls said “NO thanks training all the time that
sounds HARD, were all good.” Tyler said “True I don’t like training myself it is hard but the only way
to be good, so are we friends or can we be friends.”

“Yeah of course.” All the girls replied at the same time.
