Krystal - Grammar Activities Verbs

Today for Writing, I did a grammar activity. This activity is about verbs. A verb is a word that tells someone or something what they've done. For example "This snail eats other snails and large worms." As usual we had two activities, and in the first activity matching the words was one of the activities. In the second activity one of the activities I had to do was, I had to figure out what the verb was in a sentence. Here is my activity below!

 

Krystal - Swimming Recount

For the past week and a half we (whole school) has had swimming lessons about safety. On the first day I was kind of comfortable with swimming. After the first day I couldn’t go anymore. From my perspective I’ve seen, the instructors are very good with making us concentrate. They are also helpful if we don’t know how to do this or that. On my first lesson we did kicking and some floating. Then on the second lesson they had to put their faces underwater and try and swim. Later on that week we kept practicing those type of things. Yesterday the girls said "it was fun, because they could jump in the water in any form." Special thanks to the Swim Magic instructors and the helpers as well. Here is a picture!

Krystal - Kiwi Tag Tournament

 On Friday the 26th March 2021, my class Te Wairua Pakiki 4 (TWP 4) and Te Wairua Pakiki 6 (TWP 6) had a tag competition against Sylvia Park. Our class only had two boys team and one girls team. This was hosted by Eastern Zone Kiwi Tag. We had to make sure everyone was on the bus, so we wouldn't leave anyone behind. Once we put our bags and stuff on the bus. We hopped off the bus, went onto the field and set up the tent's and the big blue gazebo. We did some warm-ups, because it was a little cold and to practice our passing. The first game was the boys team against each other. It was the boys A team against the boys B team. The boys A team won their first game. The score was 3 - 2. Then it was our girls team versus Sylvia Park. Sylvia Park won the first game 1 - 4. Then it was the boys B team against Panmure District School. The game was a draw 2 - 2. It was the girls again versing Sylvia Park. Sylvia Park won another game 0 - 3. The boys A team against Sylvia Park. Sylvia Park won by 2 points, 2 - 4. Then it was us girls again. Versing only Sylvia Park. Sylvia Park won by 4 points 0 - 4. This game was the boys last game against Parnell School. They won by 3 points 0 - 3. This was our last game, but instead of tag it was Turbo Touch. Instead of touching it was ripping off the tags. This game was a good game. After that we all changed and waited about 40 minutes for the bus to arrive. During that time we were rolling down the hill and playing touch.

Here are some photo's, and the rules for the game.

My highlights in the new school

Krystal - 

My first week in the new school was very amazing because I was really excited before we came to this school. I was very excited because there are two levels and I am on the top with everyone else. Also I like this new school because when we go out of class like out the school there’s like this place that has fake grass so you just sit there to eat and wait for your parents to come take you home. While we are in our leading space I really enjoy it because I can learn new things from the other classes and learn more about them too ,  When our teacher is talking us we can’t hear the other classes and that's the best part of being in this new school.

Kesa -

My first week in the new school was very tiring because I had to climb the stairs a lot but it wasn’t just tiring it was very exciting like it felt like I was getting a new phone. In the learning space there are 3 classes in one space with nothing to have our privacy , at first I doubted it because it’s gonna be so loud to hear our own teachers teach us. 

When the teacher was teaching us on Monday it felt like there was a wall because I could hear my teacher very clearly and so did everyone else. 

Also when we have morning tea/lunchtime we sit in the benches and we have this other area we can sit while the wind is blowing and it's not too windy but its just right.
