Rapid Running Rugby League

WALT skills of rugby

Today Room five and I went to the bottom court for rugby league, and to learn rugby league. The coach thought us some rugby moves.

These are the skills I learnt.

We learnt how to try and to try you have to put the all down on the ground but do not drop the ball.
Then we learnt another skill called the side step, to do it you need to step with one foot on one side then step on the other side and continue running.
After that we learnt to spin. To spin we have to run one way then turn around and go the other way.
later on we learnt goose step, to do this we need to have to slow down,skip once then run really fast.

Fly Questions

WALT create key questions about our mini beast.

We had to create 5 key questions that we did not know the answer to.

Open questions are questions that the answer has more than one word. I know the question is a open question because the answer is a paragraph or a full sentence. Open questions ends with question marks, they are used at the end of every question. Open questions also start with words like, who, what, when, where, why and how.

These are my key questions.
What do flies eat?
Whats the names of all the body parts a fly?
Where do flies live?
Who are the flies enemies?
How do flies grow to adults?

The Best Conformation


The Best Confirmation.
Have you been in a confirmation? On Sunday afternoon I went to the church to practice for the real confirmation.There were lots of people like my family, the priest and other children.Did you know that the confirmation is one of the seven sacraments?

First we practiced the responses. The children stood up straight.The priest asked six different questions. The responses were, “I do” and the sixth one was, “amen”. We had to practice again and again. The first practice was really, really, really, quiet then it got louder.

Then we did the anointing of the crism. All the children waited in a long, long, long line.When I  was on the altar my heart pumped and I was scared in front of all the people. The priest put his hand on my head. His hand was warm and soft. The priest ask me 2 more questions and I went back to my seat.

Then we talked about the real conformation.The priest said that on Tuesday is the real conformation.The priest also said Bishop Pat, the bishop of auckland is coming. We needed a loud voice  or the bishop won’t hear. We had to wear white clothes for the conformation.

Then we went home. I was extremely eager and excited for the real conformation. You should try going for a conformation and now I know whats it like on the alter.

Baby Brothers Birthday


Baby Brothers Birthday

Do you like to go to the to someone’s birthday? In marvelous March it was my brothers
Brilliant birthday. I went with my family and friends to Mcdonalds to celebrate.

First I played with my friends. We played tag in the colourful park. I hid in the long slide. I was not found until one of my friends told the tagger I was there. It took me a long time for me to tag someone and it made me very, very, very tired. I thought the people who were taggers were also tired.

Then we ate. Before we ate we had grace. Next my brother blew the candle. We sang the happy birthday song. I got a plate and got a burger and chicken. Then I ate a square shaped, chocolate cake. It was really, really, really scrumptious.

After that we played a very, very, very cool game. We played pass the parcel. Do you like frisbees? The prize was some frisbees. Everyone got a prize. We all played with the frisbees. Did you know that did you know that the inventor frisbee got the frisbee idea from a teenager throwing a popcorn tin lid?

Later the parents called us that we were going home. I was really happy and exited my head exploded!! When we got home I helped my brother to open the presents, It was the best day ever!!

Making our Water Turbine

We are learning about hydro power.
Hydro power is the energy made by flowing water.

We made a water turbine,
First we got our materials, our materials were    
two small paper plates
empty egg carton
stapler
pencil
scissors.

Then we started making the turbine, We poked a hole in the middle of the two plates with the pencil. Next we cut some cups from the eggs cartons with the scissors and carefully stapled it between the two plates. Then we put the pencil in the hole we poked.

We asked the teacher if we could test it out and we did. We went to the sink and started the water.The turbine sped away. It looked like it was going as fast as light! It also made us wet.

I thought the water turbine was cool.I thought that everyone else was thinking the same.
