Last day of Term 3 writing !

 Last day of Term 3 2021 !

This week is week 10 which means it's the last day of term because there is only 2 months and 2 weeks in a term in other sayings, 10 weeks.It sort of not the same why ? It's because it's the end of the term but we aren't in school. Because of the lock down level 3 , my school is in Auckland, the state in lockdown sadly.But just because we are still in lockdown doesn't mean we don't get to go to school or we don't have school our prime minister has said to us that we could do online school , I don't like online school but at least it's something. Some of the children are missing out because they either can't focus at home or don't have wifi or a device which really sucks.This morning I had hopped on my chromebook and started to join my team assembly which is at 9:00 am .On the call the teachers said good morning and my school has this thing called gm for gm which is when you show kindness and respect gm for gm stands for good manners for google meets turning camera on and microphones when needed.Team 5 was doing the karakia and mihi then the teachers were having a dance party and then we played a Kahoot that one of the student’s have made, (thank you Brendon).We had played and given out prizes which actually get delivered to our house by the teachers they put it in the mailbox.After I had left that call I joined the live school assembly , to see who had gotten the school certificates and see the notices .Then we had electives I picked art , we had drawn some amazing things but being at school would have been better.But I would just like to say a huge thank you to all of my teachers for their hard work throughout this term.

My recount about the busy day (yesterday)

 Yesterday -it was a busy day , some people where going to sports and to a rest home to sing some waiata. I didn't go to any of the event that was happening.I stayed at school and did some school work was it kind of fun which was surprising. First we had literacy with our reliever Mr Selby he was very strict he would say '' sit next to some one who wouldn't distract you''.We did this other writing task ,which was when you had to do six sentences for three pictures so I had the idea to do 2 sentences for all three of the pictures was , a new picture which is a team I don't support ,another one was a restaurant that goes by the name Denny's and the lucky last  a ruler.I was working with some girls on my table and we were going to share ideas.Then it was already time to share but then it became time to go to our home class.

When we went to our home class it was time for morning tea ,room 5 and 4 math classes had to get split into each classes because they didnt have any teacher but luckly team 5 can manage anything.Afther morning tea we did some maths my math work was about measurements ,I had went and made a video with two year 7's we did so many clips but finally we had got the video without any mistakes we went inside and it was time for lunch.My school gets free lunches now and the lunch yesterday was a samwhich with a anzac cookie and a juicy apple.

Afther lunch we went inside of the street to do the prayer time we sang Fafetai Iesu.We all got sent back to class to go and do some cyber smart.I had completed the task and then it was time to go home then the kpmg had came home but the people from sport didnt come back untill 3 oclock as I got told by the sport people.The day was a seceded  in my opinion.

The key words about yr 8 camp

 

Today for reading  we had to make a poster using key words from yr 8 camp.

Letter in the bottle

 Dear Micheal, 

It's been about 3 years without seeing you but I can't wait to see how much you have changed I hope your still mean.But  I cant believe that I'm going to say this but  I really miss you but Im doing my best to represent our family and our country.The food here isn't as good as the food at home.Today I had nearly got shot but luckily I didn't and I had shot that person from higher ground just like you had taught me on how to defend myself .I hope that when I come back home well I hope we can still play rough game of rugby together.

Speaking of the food here it is just a minimal amount of food.If you had came with me you would have said ‘’what kind of food is this ‘’, I would just laugh but you already know that we would just eat because if we would starve we could probably not even survive.But the food over here that everyone gets is  a hard biscuit,some canned corn beef and some jam,onions and some disgusting tea with a side of cheese but yeah it's pretty alright once you get used to it.Hey did I mention that the sleeping space isn't as comfortable as your soft bed. It's so crowded that you have to sit up while sleeping. There's no blanket and pillows to keep you warm, it's just normal having nothing to sleep with.

All the time when you are trying to sleep all you hear are gun fires but did you know that your best friend Leni had joined and had asked if you joined but yeah hope all the best for you and the family over their stay safe and can't wait to see you guys.

Your sincerely

Jasmine

The scary way to school

                                                     A  scary way to school

There was a girl named Amelia, who lived in canada.She and her mother were living a very wild life.When Amelia was 8 years old her father passed away from cancer, so ever since then it was just her and her mother living together alone.

2 years had passed and she had turned  10 years old,Amelia and her mother had been having ruff times but then it kept on getting harder and harder.As Amelia’s mother had to put her daughter into school as it was illegal not to go and her mother didn't want to get into big trouble.The thing that had bothered Amelia and her mother is that Amelia had to risk her life on trying to get to the other side of the missing bridge(the bride had fallen down when there was a huge storm).On the day of  Amelia getting signed up to go to school her and her mother didn't really know how to get to the school but luckily they had bumped in to the man who own the ice cream shop.When they had bumped into each other the mother had said I am so so sorry do you know how to get to the otago primary school then the ice cream man Mike had catering told them how to get there.

As mike the ice cream man had said’’ so only one of use can go at a time’’ Oh no no what if my Amelia falls of or even slips off the mother had replied’’Mike had said’’ well then that is just bad luck ‘’ Bad luck her mother had replied.So then Amiliea and her mother madly stormed off down to the zip line so they could go to the interview for the otago school.Amelia volunteered to go first but her mother had said remember not to look down and to have more grip.When amelia had hopped on and rapped her legs around the zipline her mother had given her a big push and then Amelia was yelling yeah that's right ! 

But then she suddenly had stopped and when she had looked down there was a man the had been holding her from her legs to stop her then he had to go back on to the zip line to go and give it to Amelia’s mother.After her mother had sign Amelia up to  her new school they had gone home.Amelia was so happy to go to school because I get to make new friends and meet my teacher and learn more about my maths and learn how to read and write.When Amelia had furnished collage and graduated she had got a scholar ship to move to the UK and buy any house and clothes when Amelia and her mother had moved to the UK she had made her own business which turned out very impressive and then they had lived happily ever after.

Rainbow ends recount

 Yesterday on the 25th of November the year 7 of pt england school had went on a trip to Rainbow ends.Rainbow ends is a theme park with lots of super rides.In the morning all of the year 7’s had to share their bag with another person and then it was time to have a meeting of what behavior that we would need to have when we are at rainbow ends and what they expected.

Two of my favourite rides that I had went on was probably the spectator and the power surge because it would tip you upside down and spin you all around like you were in a fan that was on the maximum of the fan.The spectator was so much fun (but not when we had to wait in the long line) but then when me and my 4 friends had hopped on to the ride it had started raining sadly ,finally we were strapped into the seats the platform had gone all the way down and we went side-to side and then we had turned upside down instead of me screaming I was laughing.My Friend tonga was telling me to wiggle my face around and then when I nearly slipped out of the seat but i was holding on tight and i wasn't even that scared.

My favourite thing apart from the  rides was that I got lots of food, some hot chips,a drink. I also got a big fat ice cream that tasted like rainbow and that was the name of the ice cream.I had brought 2 drinks one for me and my best friend Leah.The food their was so so expensive like for a medium size lolly bag was$ 4.50 and the drinks where $5.50.The huge ice cream was $5.50 and I was like am I spending all of  my money the total of the food was $15.50.I gave two dollars to Leah because she had only brang $10 and spent $6 on cotton candy.Lorenzo was short on money to buy him a drink so I gave him 1 dollar.Ms Moala was so kind and generous that she had brought the kids in her group all an ice cream

immersion assembly report

 On Monday the 12th of October it was the first day back of term 4 we had an immersion assembly.A immersion  assembly is when we get told what the theme is for the term e.g Something in the water,and more.

So when all of pt england had all gotten all settled down, Mr Burt proudly had said ‘’We’re Back In The House ‘’ you must be asking yourself why is he saying that? Well the reason he said that is because it has been a long time since covid that we all could be gathered all together since it is level 1.So first Ms Nua, Mr Somerville, and Mr Jacobson had gotten up on stage with some paint in their hands and then they had been painting all of the children were very curious of what they were painting. And We finally had found out what the theme was: it was drumroll Please ART ALIVE!!

After all of that painting that the teachers had done

 Team 1: had introduced what they were learning about and they first tried to create some of the famous paintings such as The Monalisa, unibrow lady and such more, well that's what they are doing and going to be learning about. After Team 1 it was Team 2 to present what they are learning about/doing for art!.

Team 2: is doing art with shapes and different types of colours such as dark colours and bright colours. They’re also doing art on their i-pads, Mrs Gaston was colouring and drawing one of the teachers with dark and bright colours e.g  The bright colour was representing like a happy vibe, with the dark colour it was representing like a negative vibe. 

Team 3: is painting walls and also painting on sheets to create a their own painting using dyes and different colours of paints and mixing the different colours to see what  they make e.g red and blue makes purple

Team 4: They forgot to do their show/video to show to the whole school but luckily Mr goodwin had recorded their google meets so this Term they are learning more about maori patterns and the story behind them.

Team 5: We had done a show that Ms Moala had her first day at her work and she had to hide the people through the museum.So Team 5 is learning about all of the famous artists.

Kio-rahi recount

This morning room 1 and 5 went outside
to the hard cort and played kio-rahi.Half of
room 1 versus half or room 5.

Half of room 1 went with Ms vaafusuaga and
the other half went with Tyson.There was a
yellow,green,pink,and purple team.I was in the
green team.There was a attack and defense
team.I was the ,defense so when our team got
the ball we ,had to touch two,bins and put it by
the tupu without getting our tags ripped off.

The first game was so competitive the pink
team was in the lead but then when the year
8 boys went to the meeting for camp.My Tea
started to win where the Team that had to
throw the ball at the tupu we got about 18
points and the other got 11.

For the second game we had to walk
over to the junior side because that was
where Ms vaafusuaga  set up her kio rahi.Ms
vaafusuaga court was smaller than Tyson’s.
Instead of having bins to tough it was the work
cones.I finally got to  get a try by touching one
of the cones with the ball.It was a tight match
but the other team won.

After I have played and experienced how to
play ki o-rahi the next time I play I am going to
spread out and try to rip the other teams tags off.

Reflection on isolation

While I was in isolation due to covid-19.I was doing online school.It was very
boring nothing to do but it was good to experience what ,it feels like when
you can't leave you house/bubble.I was in isolation with my parents and my
grandparents.My parents did a huge shopping so we wouldn't need to do any
more shopping.The huge shopping was meant to last until the lock down is over.

Join the lock down I did the taha challenge and the eater learning journey.On online school we had meetings to discuss what we where going to do.We had meetings at 9:00,11:30,9:30 in the morning.When it was going down to level 3 my parents had to go back to work.So I had to go back to my grandparents house.I always got woken up at 6:00 in the morning just to get ready for online school.

Task description:Today I did a writing task which was to write a reflection on what happen in isolation.The twist was that you had to set 20 minute timer.
