Niuean Language week

 Hi, guys today I will be sharing what we have been doing for homeroom time. This week we had to make a DLO about Niuean Langauge week. Here is my DLO. \

Term 4 Goal Setting

Bula, guys today I will be sharing my term 4 goals. Every term we set goals for us to achieve and talk about what we have achieved the last term. What have you done that you are really proud of and why? I think that my goals are achievable because they are simple but still will challenge me. The main thing I will be focusing on is my writing skills because I enjoy writing a lot and it will help me in the future. I have worked on my goals and thought long about them, so I hope you enjoy and hope to hear about your goals too BYE!    

DAYLIGHT SAVING FACTS

Hi, guys today I will be sharing what I have been doing for homeroom. We have been working on our research skills. So today I will be sharing some facts about Daylight Saving.

 

Daylight saving starts on the last Sunday of the last week of September, this years it is on the Sunday 27th of September. This starts at 2am on Sunday and ends at 3am on the first Sunday of April, the 4th of April 2021. Daylight savings in New Zealand is one hour ahead of standard New Zealand time. This was first introduced in 1927 by parliamentarian Thomas Sidey he said to move the clocks 1 hour forward in New Zealand's summer period to allow for an extra hour of daylight in the evenings. This helped people save power and made it easier for the people who worked in the evenings. 

The reason I think that daylight savings are a good thing is so we have more time in the evening to enjoy the sunset and light. As I have already mentioned that with daylight savings less power is used which will help with saving money as well. A useful thing to help get used to the hour forward is to adjust all clocks to watches and to the oven digital time. If you are lying in bed and are not sleepy do some exercises to help your body be tired for the day and sleep well. Another thing that is good about daylight savings is that there is a low rate of crimes. So this means that there are fewer robberies.

There are daylight savings in different counties including Australia. Some parts of Australia have daylight savings but some don't. The states that have daylight savings are New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and Norfolk Island. The state that doesn't have Daylight savings are Queensland, the Northern Territory, Western Australia, Christmas Island or the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.

Thank you for reading some awesome facts about daylight savings, hope you learnt something. Don't be scared to put a comment on my blog as I love the feedback that you give. Thank you BYE!  

Te Wiki o te Reo Māori

Kia Ora, guys if you already don't know this week is Te Wiki o te Reo Māori language week. For this week our teacher told us to make a DLO on how to say some words in Māori and some fun facts about the culture. Hope you enjoy my work and hope you learn something new about our culture. BYE! 

Hurumanu 2 - Drama & Reading - P3 - P5

Week 1

Hi, guys today I will be sharing what we have been going for drama. Not to be rude but sometimes drama gets boring because people start misbehaving but today I really enjoyed it. 

For drama, we played different games called "Tequila, Seven Up, Magic Mover, Name Gestures and Word Association." All of these game include movement, gestures and being still. We also had worked on the stages flour pattern, listening and repetition. 

My favourite game we played was copy circle because we had to copy someone in the circle and someone else would have to guess who is the leader. This was really enjoyable.

Week 2   

For week 2 we did games and The Audition. But next week we are working on Monologues. A monologue is a play or film done by one person also there speech is long. I will be using one script and will be acting it out.      

Week 3 

For this week we have to share our monologue and we did some excises and activities. I'm doing a "Where's My Happily Ever After?" If the step-mother was an animal it would a tiger because of its tiger-like attitude evil, mysteriously, lightly and catwalks. 

Script Annotation TASK

Intentions: I intend/plan to. I think/ I feel...	My script: Misunderstood Stepmother	Techniques: Voice/body/movement/ace
Feeling left out, Honest and angry Hopeful to stay Thinking and acting naive Hopeful to stay	Snow White?  I’ll tell you about Snow White!  You think she looks like that naturally?  (she spends hours on her makeup.) And who do you think cleans all that up? It wasn’t snow white, I’ll tell you that. I never made her do any chores. She’s just like my friend's stepdaughter, in front of guests she refuses to let anyone else lift a finger and then turns it around and makes us look bad. I’m telling you, that Cinderella girl should get together with snow-white. Let them fight it out as to who gets to do the work. It’s like some kind of . . . Complex or something.

Monologue

Write a paragraph to describe the role:

I am being the evil queen from Snow White. I am 42 years old and am a stepmother of Snow White. 

This play is set in my palace is actually a small cottage in an abandon forset. 

Being the stepmother of Snow White is hard, she is the unfairest fo the all. Did you know she got everything from a prince to a palace? Ohh yes I did try to kill her but that was the old me of course, nobody understands. Okay, I did try to kill her because she was too pretty but that was it. I am sick of being misunderstood, I hate it! I want to be treated right.  

    

Hurumanu 5 Reflection

Hi, guys today I will be sharing what we have been doing for hurumanu as known as PE. I will be telling you guys my reflection on how this term went with PE. We have PE two times a week, are we have mixed our PE subject and maths together. This time for PE we had a smaller group and personal I think it was much easier and faster to do things physically and blogging stuff. 

I really liked when we have smaller groups to make it easier and efficient. Comparing our last PE session to this session I really enjoyed it because we work more in the gym than in classes. The thing that I enjoyed the most was the team beep test and the game long ball. They were both fun because we worked in teams. 

I thought that there was more math involved in this PE session than last time, which I really enjoyed. We learnt about volume, perimeter, area and more equations on that. We also worked on measurement and measure different courts. 

Overall I really enjoyed PE it was better than the last time we did it. If I had the chance to do this again I would, this was a very enjoyable session this term. Hope you liked my reflection on PE. BYE. 

   

Solar Oven

Hi, guys today I will be sharing what we have been doing for science. For Life On Mars, we have been making solar ovens, to see if we can toast smores.

We are doing this so we can show how solar energy works and how it can be useful. We used foil to reflect the light of the sun on to the smores and used cardboard to hold the foil in the right place. This didn't take long to make but the chocolate from the smores took some time to melt. But for the marshmallow, we used a magnifying glass to try to melt it but it didn't work it only made the marshmallow warm. 

Finally, I think that the smores were good even if it was just warm. Thank you for reading hope you like this bye.
