Athletics Day

Just recently we had our school athletics day. At the different activities there was two older kids from Tamaki Collage to keep track of our scores. There were two different teams: Team A and Team B. In those teams were four team colors. Yellow, blue, red and green. I was on Team B Blue. The teams wore the colors of their team to represent them will playing the activities. Our day started at 11:00. Our first activity was robe the nest. The four teams were put into the corners of the hall. In the corners would be a nest (hula hoop). Scattered on the floor was a bunch of tennis balls. Our goal was to see who can get the most tennis balls in their nest before the timer ends. If there was no tennis balls left your team mates could steel them from the other teams nest. In each team there was a tagger. If you got tagged you couldn't move until one of your teams mates unstuck you. The next activity we played was long jump. Each team would take turns getting a run up and seeing how far they can jump. You would put a cone wherever your team jumped the furthest. Then we went to the sponge relay. What we had to do was: a sack race to the sponge, then roll under a pole and jump over a line. When we got to the end we dunked the sponge into the bucket full of water. Then we raced back to our colored buckets to see who could retrieve the most water. After we played shot put. We had to do a proper shot put throw and see which team could get the furthest. To help us we put a cone wherever the ball bounced not rolled. Our next activity was throwing the hula hoop on the three different objects. We did this until the end of the rotation. In the end we wrote down who got the highest score. For our last activity we had the egg and spoon race. We had to: zig zag in between the cones, go over the chair and stand on one leg for 5 seconds. Then we had to race back to the line. All teams competed to see if they could finish faster than each other. We ended the day with some sausages and races.

Art Tech


For tech I have been taking art. Recently I have finished my art work. The first step was to draw your designs on a piece of paper. Once I finished I transferred them on to my wood block. Then I colored in the design. I also made sure to include white and yellow. After, I started carving out the white parts on my board. Then I painted yellow on to the board. I then put my board on top of a piece of paper to print out the design. Once I finished printing yellow I carved out all the parts with yellow.  I repeated this step on three pieces of paper. I did this process for every color until I had my final design which you can see in the photo at the top.

Read Theory Progress Chart


While I have been in Learning Space Two I have been practicing my reading by using Read Theory. For the past two years I have been using this program. Today the class have gathered information from our Read Theory accounts to create a statistical analysis that shows our improvement between last year and this year. Throughout the years my grades have gotten higher. This is because I have learned from my past quizzes to help improve my reading more.The boxes surrounding the graph is my hypothesis about why my progress looks the way it does.

Book Week - Why is the cover important?

This week is book week. Today we were put into groups and rotated to the different stations. We would answer questions or give our opinion. Once we finished going to all of the stations I chose a question to do a statistical analysis on. The question was: Why is the cover important?. I used a pie graph to show reasons why a cover is important. I also used a bar graph to show how much people in our class voted for how important the cover is.

World War 1 Question



Today we have been learning about World War 1. We had a couple of minutes to write down all the questions we had about the war. Once we finished my partners Lyric and Zane helped me to choose one of the questions to research about. Our question was: Why did the World war 1 end so suddenly?. We created a google drawing showing all of our knowledge about this question. We also added links to the websites we used.

Armistice Day Commemoration



Today we had our own commemoration for Armistice Day. This day is celebrated to remember the end of world war 1 and the soldiers who fought for our country. The whole school and staff members sat outside to listen to the oaths. We all sat around a cross that had poppies buried inside it. We used poppies because they became the symbol for Armistice Day. Our principle also spoke on this day. Our vice principle read the Flanders field poem. The head students: Jeremiah and myself read the oath. He said it in Maori and I said it in English. We also had a representative from the New Zealand defense force speak to us. Afterwards we turned around to look at the flag while Reveille played. We had a minute of silence to reflect on everything. We turned back around and two people from each classroom placed their signed poppies on the fence. They put the poppies next to three olive trees. These trees represented the past, present and future. That signaled the end of the commemoration.

Armistice Day 11/11/1918

Recently we have been learning about Armistice Day. On Friday we will be having a ceremony for this day at our school. Today my partner Zane and I made a collage of photos that showed the happiness and excitement of the families and the armies. This was to show how people felt when the war ended. This started in 1914 and ended in 1918. There was 135 countries who fought in this war. The treaty was signed in Compiegne, France. The German were also made to surrender all their military weaponry and pay 35$ Billion dollars for the damage. Over 16 million people died and 37 million people were wounded during the war. This is why people were so relieved when the fighting had stopped.

Waiouru Museum Robbery

Today for reading we were researching about a story. My partner San Kyaw and I worked together to find the different perspectives of the story. We choose to read about the Waiouru Museum robbery. This event happened in 2007. A man named James Joseph Kapa was caught stealing 96 military medals. These medals were gifted to the museum by the families who have lost loved ones in the war. We also wrote our opinion on the situation.

The Highwayman Summary


For reading this week we have have studying an old poem called the Highwayman. It was written by Alfred Noyes and was set in the 18th century (1701 - 1800) in the countryside of England. This poem talks about a the relationship between the Highwayman and a landlord's daughter. For our reading task we were to create a DLO with a summary about the Highwayman poetry. We read the poem and for each paragraph we talked to our group about the paragraph and what it talks about. If you would like to listen the poem on YouTube click here.

Boxing Term 4 Week 2

This week on Thursday we had boxing. Our instructor was Pax. She told us about the three commandments. Respect, Discipline and Safety. If we break one the these rules the whole class has to do burpies. First we learned how to stand and protect our body. Then we learned how to jab and cross. I also learned that boxing is a team sport and we should work as a team to get better.

KiwiCan Clean Up


The student leaders of Panmure Bridge School partook in the KiwiCan clean up alongside: Glenbrae primary school, Glen Taylor School, and Tamaki Primary School. Doing this will have a positive effect on New Zealand wildlife and the way people perceive the Tamaki area. Today Jordan (SWIS) and Miss Paige (KiwCan Leader) supervised us as we walked from our school to Point England Reserve. While we walked, we picked up rubbish to ensure that our area looks clean but to make it fun we said that the group that does not pick up the most rubbish will have to do what the winning team says. When we arrived at Pt England we collected six full bags of rubbish and recycling so it was hard to tell who won. When we got their we were given lunch and a drink. As Jeremiah and I are the head students of our school we were ask to comment on the event. After that, we finished the day playing games against the other schools. I would like to than the Graeme Dingle Foundation for letting us take part and to Lion Foundation for providing us with lunch.

National Shakeout Day


Recently we have been learning about the National Shakeout Day. This event is held to remind people of what to do when there is a earthquake. My partners Mataio, San Kyaw and I worked together to create a DLO about earthquakes. We answered questions about what you should do when there is a earthquake and why it is important to be prepared for an earthquake. We also talked about how a earthquake can stat and the affects of one.

Netball Interschool

On Wednesday the netball teams went to the Auckland Netball Center to compete against other teams. I was in the year 7 and 8 purple team. Each team had about 6 or 7 games. Unfortunately for some games we played in the rain. The teams we competed with were Ruapotaka, Glen Brae, Pt England, Stone Fields and Panmure Bridge Green (our other team). In my opinion our team could work on passing and communication.

Spaghetti bridge



For inquiry we have been learning about structures. Recently, we have been working on making a bridge out of dried spaghetti. My partner Mataio and I worked with Julian and Lyric to create this bridge. We used rubber bands, tape and string to make it more stable. First we planned how much materials we will need and how long it needed to be. When we built the bridge we added more supports throughout the structure. We used bricks to test how strong our final product was. Our groups bridge was the strongest. It was able to hold 8 bricks.

Duffy Assembly - T3 W9


Image result for michel mulipola
Today we had a Duffy assembly. Micheal Mulipola a famous illustrator came to talk to us about why reading is important. He told us a story about when he was a child. Michael loved to draw all throughout his life. When he was younger he always wanted to make comic strips. He also liked collecting superheros, but  his favorite character was Green Lantern. Green Lantern stood out more than the other characters to Michael. He said that green lanterns powers where like his pencil. He made whatever he could think of come to life. Now he has become what he has always dreamed of. He is now a wrestler, a semi-professional gamer and a illustrator for comic strips.

Why Do People Build Bridges?

Why Do People Build Bridges?


Sturdy, strong and useful. Bridges are a vital part of society. Their contribution to
the world has been unparalleled as it connects different places together to create a
more functional community.


Let’s think back to the 17th century before the first bridge was built. People
struggled to get across rivers, they risked their lives, and were unable to transport
necessities. Before we had bridges it made transportation more difficult.  Bridges
improved our transport and helped to move essentials to different places.


These structures have the ability to span across far distances which makes getting
from point A to point B easier. This is because: there is nothing that can postpone
your trip, weather can not influence the outcome of your travels, so erosion and high
tides are less problematic.


Bridges are made to get over natural occurrences in a more convenient.
For example, If there was a river or another time consuming obstacle in between
two places, it will be quicker to go over it than through it. If bridges weren’t built,
it would make crossing a river more dangerous.


Bridges have become a vital part of society, as they have connected people
from other places; to gain the ability to cooperate with others from different parts
of the country. These structures have helped shape our community in many ways it
changed our modern world forever.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For centuries around the world, bridges have improved the operation of society and have also benefited the transportation of necessities. To answer the question 'Why do people build bridges?' I have written an explanation which will hopefully tell people about the importance of bridges and how it has contributed to the shaping of modern society.

The Last Session Of HIIT


Today was our last session of HIIT. This is a research program held by AUT Research. This program is about getting puffed (Pau te hau). We have been doing exercises twice a week for 15 weeks. This session we did tap steps, push ups, star jumps and sit ups. Unfortunately I wasn't able to do the push ups because of my shoulder. Throughout the weeks of doing HIIT I have been leading the group with some of my classmates. HIIT has not only helped me to get puffed but I have also seen some physical changes in my fitness.

Exponents


Today for maths we were learning about exponents. Exponents stand for how many times the value is being multiplied. For example, 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625. I found this activity easy because it was not difficult to understand the meaning. I completed a question sheet that had exponent problems. Afterwards I made a DLO using three questions from the work sheet. I explained what exponents meant and how to solve one of the problems.

Kiwi Certificate


A couple of weeks ago students from LS2 and LS1 partook in a Kiwi competition. This competition revolved around our capability of literacy and mathematics. Everyone who partook in the mathematics test would agree that it was difficult. I found this personally difficult because there were algebra questions which I haven't learnt about nor did I understand. Everyone who took part in the maths test received a participation certificate. For literacy I received excellence which was great. I found doing the literacy test quite simple but when it came down to the last couple of tests, I did not try my hardest and I gave up. I am still proud of my achievement and it was fun to take part in something that is something I enjoy doing.

Orchestra Trip - Auckland Phillharmonia



Students from Learning Space Two all enjoyed three pieces of classical music. I enjoyed all of the sounds of the musical instruments as the sounds were melodic. We all traveled by bus to the town hall in Auckland City. Mid way through the performance they introduced an opera singer who sang a Spanish song from the musical, Carmen. He was not very loud as the opera singer's back faced us as he sang to the people on the ground floor. Their were many instruments, including the harp, the tuba, the viola, and the triangle. All the people were color coded by a certain color. The percussion instruments were played by a person in green, while the strings were red. the woodwinds were blue, and the brass were yellow. To top of an amazing trip, a group of students from Saint Kentigern's and Ngatapawae performed a dance with the backing of a song from the ballet Romeo and Juliet. I felt that the dance did not have any relations to the love story of Romeo and Juliet. I believe the dance could have been a bit softer to work well with the song.

VR Reasearch

Today my inquiry group was having a fun learning experience with Virtual Reality (VR). People from the Augmented human lab at the Auckland University came to our school to do some research, because of this we got to have a try with Virtual Reality. For inquiry we have been learning about structures so the Virtual Reality was based around the first Panmure Bridge. After we did some test and interaction with the cardboard goggles and iPad interaction we had pizza. A huge thank you to Yvonne and her research team for making this happen.

Colon Illustration

For writing we have been learning about sensory verbs and colons. First I was given a sheet with missing colons. My challenge was to fix each sentence by putting the colon in the right place. Once I finished I chose one of the sentences to make an illustration of. I also gave an explanation of why I put it there and what it is used for. Did you know that colons can be used as a hook in a piece of writing?

Sensory Verbs

For writing one of our activities was a test sheet about sensory verbs. I answered 11 questions. I had to click on one of the options that I thought was the right vocabulary for the sentence. I found this activity easy because I have done this before. Once I checked my answers the results came back all correct. 

Reading - Percy Jackson And The Last Olympian

For reading we have chosen a book to do a review on. Me and my partner Zane chose to do something from the Percy Jackson series. My book was called Percy Jack And The Last Olympian. Throughout the sessions I have been reading the book for the first 30 minutes. So far I'm on page 40 in chapter 3. From what I have read the book is about Percy making a decision that would save or destroy the world from Kronos. My favorite part is when they have a fight on the boat that's headed to the Harbour of New York. My prediction is that Percy is going to have to fulfill the prophecy and make a decision.

Cupcake Problem


This week for maths we have been learning how to tell 24 hour time. Once we answered some questions we parented up to solve the rich task problems. My partner was San Kyaw. There were three questions, once we finished finding the answer we choose one of the questions to do a DLO on. This question was a cupcake problem.

How To Tell Analogue Time

How To Tell Analogue Time


There are a variety of ways that can help you to tell the time, one of the most common ways is using a clock,
watch or a device. These are called analogue clocks. They use numbers and hands to show you the current
time. Some use numeral numbers and some don’t have numbers on them at all. When you break down the
process it becomes really simple.

On the clock there are three hands. The hour hand, the minute hand and the second hand. The short hand
shows you what hour it is. The short hand slowly moves towards the next hour, and during that process it
will look like the hand isn’t on a number. For example, if the hand is in between 7 and 8 it is still seven because
the hand hasn’t reached the eight yet. The hour hand will change when the long hand goes to 12.


The long hand is to show what minute it is. When the second hand has reached twelve the minute hand moves
forward by one. For example, if the time is 8:09 and the seconds hand hits twelve the minute hand will move
forward by one making it 8:10. You could also say ten past eight.


When someone is telling you what the time is they could say words like “half past three” or
“it’s a quarter to two” and I know it can sound confusing. In 1 whole hour there is 60 minutes.
So when people say a quarter they mean 15 minutes. This is where knowing your mathematics comes in handy.

By breaking down the process it can be really easy to learn how to tell time on a clock, watch or device.
Telling time is actually a really important asset in life, because it could also be used for being on time to get the
most out of your learning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During our writing sessions we have been writing an explanation about how to tell analogue time. In my introduction I included a list to hook in my reader. Then in my conclusion I said something similar and gave them something to think about. In each paragraph I made sure to give an idea then elaborate and then give an example. At the end of each paragraph I made sure to write a sentence that would link it to the next paragraph. This helps to make my writing more interesting.

Why is sleep so important?

This week we have been learning about why sleep is so important. We created a DLO using the information we gathered from the websites we were provided. Our first challenge was to find the meaning of the list of vocabulary we found about sleep. We also learned about how some of the children around the world don't get the same amount of sleep. Once we finished creating our DLO we shared it with our classmates to show what we have learnt over the reading sessions.

Scale Drawing 2018


This week is maths week. Throughout the week we have been working on our scale drawings. This is my second time doing this. Last time I drew Kevin Hearts character in the movie "The Secret Life of Pets", a rabbit called Snowball. The first step was to find an image that you would want to draw. I found it hard trying to figure out what image I wanted to make an enlargement of. Finally, I decided on drawing Simba from Lion King. After my image was printed out I used a ruler to measure the border of the image and draw a grid. Each square was 1 cm. Then I multiplied it by 2 to get the enlargement. It was a 1:2 ratio. I drew my scale drawing by copying one square at a time. Once I finished I colored it in. Lastly, I cut out and glued on my name tag, the image and my finished drawing. Looking at my finished product I feel like I have done a much better job than last year.

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) - Term 3 Week 2


Today was our third session of HIIT. The workouts we chose for this session was Mountain Climbers, Split squat karate kick, High knee sprint and star jump. We did these workouts 4 times for 20 second. I really enjoyed HIIT today because we all pushed our selves and as you can see in the image all our heart rates were on red. I would like to thank Mataio and Zane for helping lead the group. A special thank you to Mrs Anderson for cheering us on.

Reading - Inference

      



Today's session for Reading my group was working with Mrs Anderson. Today's group leader was Zane. First we learned about what inference is and how you could do it. Once my whole group understood the meaning of inference we worked together to write our own definition. Afterwards we looked at pictures of people and were they sleep. Then we created a google drawing to do a comparison between were we sleep.

Career Quest


Today for Inquiry our focus is careers. We used a website called Careers Quest to find jobs that we would enjoy doing. I answered 78 questions about my interests in a job. For example: Are you interested in working outdoors? My results gave me 100 jobs that fit my interest. I found a partner that had the same job that was requested for me. We worked together to research about the job. In the end we had a challenge to see who would make the most money with their job.

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) - Term 3 Week 1



This week Thursday was our second session of the new term. The three exercises we did were Star Jumps, Tap Step and High Knee Sprint. We did each exercise for three rounds. We did them for thirty seconds and had a 30 second break in between. The reason we do the High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is to get puffed (Pau te hau). At the start my goal was to get my heart rate into the red and above 100. Now, I have exceeded my expectations and got further then just 100. I was very proud of myself for leading the group with Mataio through the exercises.

ASB Get Wise



Today Jayden has came to talk to us about how to save our money and how it will benefit us in the future. To help us understand Jayden created a scenario where our groups went on a holiday in Fiji. Our budget was only $1,800 and we had to consider: passport, flights, accommodation, insurance, food, shopping, and activities. There was a range of choices with different prices. This taught us how to create a budget plan that will help us save up for something nice such as new shoes. Their motto is save some, spend some, and share some.

M&M's Maths Learning

Today for maths we were learning about M&M's. The first activity we did was estimating how much M&M's would be in the packet and which color would there be of the most. After that we opened it and tested our estimation. Some of the people in my group were right and some people were wrong. Once we gathered our information we put into this DLO. In this presentation is the history, facts, founder and graph comparison of the M&M's.

HIIT - High Intensity Interval Training


This week's session was about strength. After we put on our heart rate monitors we did a stretch to open up our muscles. In learning space 2 I have learned that it is important to stretch before doing any physical activity to help the muscles lose. We got into the groups we were in for the last session. There were 6 people in each group. First we had a timer for 40 seconds put on to tell us when to switch. My partner Fraidon and I started on squats then went to push ups and stopped at pull ups. We did this rotation with 4 other people 3 times. It was very exhausting!

Kiwi Sport Reflection

For Kiwi sport this week we played a game called Rush Tag which is similar to bull rush but instead you have to try and take the rippas from the opponents. After this we finished of with a game of Rippa Rugby. For this game we were splited into 3 teams. Our goal for attacking is to pass the ball to someone that can find a space to run and our goal for defending was to spread out, make not gaps for the attacking team, and run towards the attacking team as a line. At the end we were really fatigued but had a really enjoyable time with Hamish .

Pewter Casting - Tech - T2 W7


This is our second session of our new rotation in pewter casting. Today's tech session was about finishing our workbooks and going on to making our designs. Once I finished uploading the images onto my workbook I chose the final image I would use to create my design. I also wrote down The reasons why I chose the image and why I chose to do it for that person. I decided I would want to give the chef's hat necklace to my mom because she has done a lot for me. After I finished my work book I printed it and used a technique to copy it from the piece of paper onto the piece of wood. Our teacher Mr Grundy helped me to create the opening. He taught me how to use the Scroll Saw to cut out my design. I have melted the pewter and poured into my design so I am now up to sanding it. These pewter casting sessions are helping me to understand the process of making a necklace out of pewter.

HIIT - High Intensity Interval Training

High intensity interval training is a programme our school has part-taked in to help the Auckland University to help their research. This test is to see if doing physical activity helps us develop a stronger sense of focus in our learning. For the first couple of sessions we have been doing split squats, split squat pulse, split squat jumps, and star jumps. I found doing these exercises physically challenging but also very fun.

Kiwi Can - T2 W8 - 2018


This term our theme for Kiwi Can is integrity. Integrity means to be honest or to do the right thing when no one is looking. This week the value we have been learning about is accountability. Accountability is when you take responsibility for your mistakes or your actions. At school integrity can be shown to one another by not playing games within class during learning. Accountability can be shown when you break something and you admit that it was you and apologize.

Classroom Ages

This week one of our tasks were about fractions. The question was asking us how many children are there altogether. The first step I did to figure out the answer was to look at the question an understand that it said there was already 4 children in the classroom. So 4 + 4 = 8. Then I multiplied it by 3 from the 2/3 which equaled 24. 2/3 of 24 equal 16 so there were 16 ten year old's. 1/2 of the remaining 8 are 9 years old which means there are 4 nine year old's. The rest are 11 years old. I used my fraction, division and multiplication knowledge to figure out the answer.


Newspaper Article - Cinema Attendance


This week Ms Kirkpatrick maths group examined a continuous data that showed the cinema attendance by age group and year. First we were to answer a questions based on the data. OfaJeremiah and I worked collaboratively together to answer it. Some of the questions were: In which year was attendance highest for the 25-34 age group? What happened in 1992 and 1994 to the attendance for 15-24 year old? How else could the data be displayed? It was really interesting to see that in 1999 15-24 year old attendance to cinemas increased comparing it to 1984 where it was really low. At the end Ofa and I were to make a newspaper article based on the data. We were make our own Newspaper headline and we decided to call our article 'New Blockbusters. Captivating or monotonous?'

Meeting Our Younger Students


As head students we need to make sure that our students know who we are and what we can do for them. We kept it short and simple so that they can understand it. We talked a little about how we can accompany them if they are feeling sad or do not have anyone to play with. We would like them to cite us as role models and as someone they can lean on. I express my gratitude to Mrs Millward, Miss Cockeram, Mrs Hiddleston, and Mrs Mclane for giving up time for us to introduce ourselves.

Ruler Relfexes

This week for inquiry, we learnt about human reactions. We had a small challenge that included simply a ruler, a
partner, and our reactions. Our task was to attempt to grab a ruler as fast as possible. We were given 3 different
reactions to test. Visual, where we had to grab the ruler just by watching it. No count down, go or anything. Next
was aural, where we had to close our eyes, and where only told "GO" for when we could attempt to grab the
ruler. No countdown, no looking, no touching, just a simple go. Finally, was touch. We closed our eyes, no words,
just a tap on the shoulder letting us know when to grab. The partner that I was given was Tiava, and we had a lot
of fun working together. What we needed to do next was graph our data. Although to make it even better, we
were to group up with another pair and graph all of our data in one big graph. So for this, we chose to work with
Sanujan and John. We had a lot of fun all working together, and in the end, made a pretty great graph.

Tiava Hypothesis: I think that I will be best at Test 2, because I think that signals to the brain will be faster than
sight, or touch.
Jack Hypothesis:  I think that I will be best at Test 1, because I think that my eyes will signal my brain faster than
anything else.

Evaluation:

Jack:
I found this interesting, as my hypothesis was for test 1 to be the one I was best at, but instead it was test 3 that I
was the best at. Meaning that my hypothesis was incorrect. I must’ve been incorrect because I didn’t realize that
I sent signals to my brain faster through touch that sight. Although there is a chance of it being just a one off
time.

Tiava:
I found this surprising because my hypothesis was for test 2, but I excelled at test 1. I think that my hypothesis


was incorrect because my body and brain reacts faster when I can visual see the ruler drop than hear the word
go.

Fraidoon & Alex Maths Problem

Today for one of our maths activities I solved a salary maths problem. Fraidoon and Alex both got a job at the same time and they both had different salaries.
