Summary of Hurumanu 5 Math/Science

 Summary of Hurumanu 5 

Hurumanu 5 was fun, Mr Carter was the math teacher and Mr Heath was the science teacher. I enjoyed having Mr Carter as our math teacher as he made math fun and energetic for everyone while still working and learning things. He doesn't make things boring.

Having Mr Heath as the science teacher he is really fun and chill. He makes science fun for all. We learnt a lot like magnets, eyes etc. 

here is some of my work.

cooking

 ~Cooking~

In cooking today (Wednesday) we had a practical. We had to make a chicken stir fry.

I personally didn't like it too much. I think we should have cooked the vegetables a little more and we should have added more flavor to it as it didn't have that much flavor. It was a bit bland. The vegetables were very under-cooked and really crunchy. 

~Ingredients~ 

• Chicken 

• Carrots 

• Cabbage 

• Cauliflower 

• Broccoli 

• Onion 

• Sesame oil 

• Soy sauce 

~Method~

• Combine cut up chicken and sesame oil in a large ball.

• Cut up your vegetables.

• Dice you onion.

• In a hot frying pan add your onion and chicken till caramelized.

• Add your harder vegetables. 5 mins later add the rest of your vegetables. Add salt and pepper and soy sauce with seasonings of your choice.

Enjoy! :)

music

in music, we started before lockdown a little project sort of thing you could choose out of singing, drums etc. I chose singing, my friend and I did it together. we sang 'someone you loved' we had to video it. i think we did pretty good.

music

in music, we had to do music research. we got to pick what sort of music we would do it about me and my group Megan and Hayley choose rap. here is the slide we did for it.

inclusiveness

So today in health we watched a video about inclusiveness. the video was about bringing people together, that you could want to avoid the confident people etc. They were bringing them together to make everyone feel included. They asked some personal things and some not so personal things they all answered honestly. They found out some things they did not know about them and it was bringing them all together. The point of this is to make sure you include people and not leave them out they could be like you. You could find a lifetime friend when you include people.

Well-being/what is being kind

Well-being/what is being kind 

What is spiritual well-being? Spiritual well-being is something you believe in it may not be the same as anyone else but it also could be. I believe that we got put on this earth for a purpose we might not know what our purpose is on this earth yet but you just have to get out and live that purpose and not let anyone stop you that is what I believe in. 

a random act of kindness does not mean you have to give someone a gift. It can just be smiling at someone or say something nice it does not cost any money it just cost your time but I mean you have a lot of that so why don't you just use a little bit of that to be kind and make someone's day. you never know what is happening in their life. I made a random act of kindness to my brother and well I think it made his day I hope.

Miss Birtch story

A rocky hill with trees toward on it in an orderly bunch shining on to the water. The on bray sky fading into the water. All the ships heading out to sea to go sail across the still waters. Jemma is sitting with her dog on a walk sipping her water and enjoying the bleming sun.

Jemma is a very active and athletic person. she likes to go on hacks with her dog Cassie. Cassie is a very curious dog. As they are going on a port hill walk she sees all the ships and wonders what it would be like to go and see them upright in person.

Jemma's dog got off the lead she smelt something salty. She followed her nose and did not listen to Jemma as she called out her name. Jemma chasted after Cassie up and down hills and Jemma stopped. She could not find Cassie anywhere.

Jemma has a secret whistle to call Cassie if Jemma is in trouble when Jemma whistles she comes running over to Jemma. As Jemma whistled Cassie sprinted over to her and Jemma yells good girl. She got her back on the lead and did not recognise where she was. She started to try and walk home but got herself even more lost. She finally found her way home happy and safe.

What i would want to learn at school

So today Miss Birtch gave us a task to write a blog post about what we would want to do at school that we do not have.

I choose horse riding as they don't have it at many schools. I think if some people start getting into horse riding it could give you a great career. You could go to the Olympics for horse riding as it is a sport.

You can get an average of $500-$700 dollars a week.  

bora bora

my dream holiday is going to bora bora. bora bora has been my dream holiday for most of my life. it is such a gorgeous island to go to. I want to go to bora bora as you can do a lot of fun things like a sunset cruise and go dolphin and whale watching.  

                             

            

                                                                           

Horse Riding

So today miss Birtch asked us to write a blog post we could choose out of 6 things so I choose "what do you do to keep fit and healthy." 

As my sport, I choose horse riding. I choose horse riding as I am an equestrian an equestrian is someone who rides horses as a sport and that is their passion. When you ride you would probably have a favourite discipline like xc, show jumping, dressage, polo etc. My favourite discipline is xc and show jumping as you learn more than you do in others. In all horse riding sports, you can compete and win rosettes and ribbons. 

These are rosettes and ribbons. You win these at competitions. As I don't have my own horse yet I don't really compete but in my riding school, I go to we do indoor competitions that I go to. I now have one 1st place rosette one 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and two 6th place ribbons.

Blog Reflection

The team game we played was:  Ki-O-Rahi

For this activity, I rate myself (circle one) 1 2 3 4

I gave myself this rating because (describe something that happened that supports the rating you gave yourself).  I gave myself this rating because the teacher had to remind me a little to join in

What was something that was challenging about today’s activity? (in relation to teamwork)

It was challenging being in the middle and protecting the Cylinder in the middle when people kept on hitting you with the ball.

How did I overcome this challenge?

I started protecting myself like putting my hands out.

song/music

In music, we had to make a song  

To my ex-best friend

You have chosen the wrong things in life

But I can't help you 

I have tried so hard to help you go down the right paths

But you didn't listen to me

I have stopped you from cutting 

But I can't help you now 

I have to go my own way now 

So to my ex-best friend 

You always knew me right 

Through hard and low times

I knew I could trust you

But then you left me 

All the bad choices you have made

Lead you down this path

Getting court up in 

Drugs alcohol smoking lead you here

You may not think it has to lead you 

Here but it has and I'm sorry

But it has lead to losing me

So to my ex-best friend 

You always knew me right 

Through hard and low times

I knew I could trust you

But then you left me

You were changing so much you have hurt

Me in many ways 

Now the time has come to say

My last words to you 

Goodbye best friend

singing

Today in period 2 we did C.I.P.

We started to weed and move some wood.

some of the wood was rotten and falling apart.

When we were weeding there was stinging needle. a stinging needle is a type of plant that stings you and you can get really itchy.

Today In period 3 we had singing.

The first song we sang was tip of my tongue for our warm-up song. We sang home again 2 times. Then big Aroha, whaling, green light and light surrounding you.

tip of my tongue, wake up, home again, big Aroha, whaling, green light and light surrounding you

The visit of Ella West

Ella West visit

So yesterday Ella West came to our school. In our class we
Have a ‘Night Vision’ group for reading and Ella West wrote ‘Night Vision’. They had to do a blog post about the book ‘Night Vision’. The blog post caught her attention and she was already coming down to Christchurch for family things and so she decided to come and visit us. 

The day came where Ella West came to our school. We had a little meet with all the ⅞ classes then ⅞ Al went to the learning commons. We asked some questions.
She is a journalist for the southland times forming magazines. She tries aiming for 1000 words a day. She is currently writing a new book called ‘Sound of My Heart’ and it is about a 16-year-old girl running a half marathon and trying to compete against older people.

‘Night Vision’ has won 2 awards.
Her first book was thieves in 2006. In ‘Night Vision’ there is this girl that has a disorder where if she goes in the sun her skin burns and swells up based that on a true part in life because some kids are not too lucky and actually has that disorder where they can't go in the sun. So they don't go to school and cant play netball basketball etc.
