P.E learning story

P.E learning story.

For the past few weeks we have been doing P.E. Our goals is to work as a team by sharing/passing the ball to each other, Sharing idea’s also encouraging the team so they can feel hyped.

The game that provides hard work and working together is T-ball. I know that there is other games that require teamwork but my mind is on T-ball because it requires throwing the ball  to each other or even hitting the ball far as possible even cheering would make them feel accelerated.

When playing T-ball you always need a strategy to it like hitting the ball soft so the other team can run to it or hit it far at the sides so the other team can run all the way.

I am good at sharing my ideas (Strategy) so they know how to trick the other team also I am good at supporting them with feedback so next time they can improve more from their mistakes.

The next thing I want to talk about is dodge ball because it is a skilled throwing game that everybody loves.

Dodge ball is nearly everybody’s favorite game because they love throwing the balls to win but it's not always about winning, it's about having fun or even working together.

My next steps is to catch the ball because I always think that it will hit my face but I need to try and be brave by solving the problem. I can try and solve it by looking at the ball instead of closing my eyes then I could help the team more.

Cubism art learning story.

Cubism art learning story.

This is about art, a confusing one too, that is why we call it cubism art. Cubism art means that it is all over the place instead of being in one spot. We (Ngati aroha and awhina) have worked hard on our cubism art and wondered who created cubism art?. That’s why we went over to the pataka exhibition to research and discover who did.

As time was ticking we went inside the exhibition. It was filled with beautiful paintings that I didn’t know which one was my favorite. I tried to shout out my excitement out loud but we had to keep our voices down so I had to hold it in. I was looking around looking at the amazing art and found a cubism art called the Weeping woman, it looked very weird, very puzzled and that’s when I wondered who was the creator, who made cubism art? That's why the answers are here, that’s why we came.

Finally we found the creator of the cubism art. We have discovered that a spanish painter named Pablo Picasso created cubism art. There is another painter named George Braque. Those two artist created a painting together, I don’t know what it's called but I still like it.

I have already started on my cubism art. My one is about a mother who had birth to her baby. I only drew the baby because it had more details to it more than the mother. Also the baby is giving me the draw me vibe but not the mother.

I am good at using bold lines so they can stand out because when people look at it they can see everything. They can also see the image more clearly.

My next is to use contrasting colours carefully because contrasting means that the colour need to match another and I used yellow and green, It didn’t really match but that will be my next steps

The Market

The market

Why, why are you always taking me to the market huh. Its also

up at the waitangirua mall, I could have done something even better in the morning like sleeping in or even going on my phone. Oh well I just hope that it will be a quick trip.

As I walk through the cones I hear music booming in my eardrums like if there were somebody shouting at me to give them money or buying their food. Hearing screams from a little girl crying and begging for what she wants. Gosh I wonder if that was me when I was little.

Shutting my eyes as if they were guided to sleep but now I am wondering around where that smell is coming from. Opening my eye’s straight opened and finding where that smell is coming from. As I gazed at the caravan that had the delicious smell I wonder to myself “ do I really want to buy this, Will it be good” My mom always say that trying new food is a new flavor.

As I went to that caravan I already saw my mom there buying that food I was wondering about. She’s coming over to me and what I saw was a fried bread in her hand. She gives it to me to try it, I stare at her she gives me the hurry up and eat it look. I grab it off her and took a big bite. My face started to turn into a I want to eat it all mode. Suddenly I put the other half in my mouth like I was hogging the food, enjoying it with glee and looked around some more.

My eye’s start glaring at the big gigantic bouncy castle that is shaped like a boot. It looked really old and rusty, I looked at the line and no one was even there. I felt tempted to go on it but suddenly I remembered something my mom told me, “Aria DO NOT go on something if nobody's there okay”. Ow man I Really wanted to go on it, oh well it looked dirty like a messy room any ways.

Staring at the clothes that look old like if somebody kept on passing it to each other. As I gaze at the maori necklaces I knew that I would want one so I touched the smoothness of the jade stone. It felt like I would wear this in a kapa haka performance representing my culture with it.

“Aria time to go home”  o man I really wanted to stay more. You know what I think this is a great place to be in. I think I am going to come to the market every saturday.

By Aria

This is me

 

Work hard, play fair and never give up.

Hey there the name’s Aria, I am 11yrs old, I go to the best school, Corinna, and I am proud that I am Maori.

I usually have a busy week because I participate in a lot of stuff like Karate, Violin, Kapahaka, patrols and drumming. I participated in them because I can take risks.

My desire is to be an author because I love reading books. I was inspired by the very first book that I read, and that was The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.

The feelings that I use for school is happiness, because I like to bright up my day. Sure I cry when I get hurt but that won’t stop me from having a happy day.

Friendship is what I love about school. I love how people are treating each other friendly and how people are taking risk’s to make new friends. That is what I call friendship.

Most of the time I spend nearly a entire day playing minecraft. I have built shop’s, houses and secret rooms. My mum is never happy whenever I play minecraft because she doesn't understand so I tell her what it is about but she just doesn’t get it.

Sigh anyways let's talk more about myself.

At home it is just me and my mom because everyone in our family live in other countries or cities so we don’t really talk much.

I found out that I had a 2nd sister when I was 5yrs old. Her name is Jayda well she isn’t really my sister because she is my biological sister. I was wondering why she was my biological sister instead of being my real one so my mom explained how so she said that “Jayda has a different mom but same dads”. I was shocked but I handled it.

Oh did I also mention that I have a brother in law well not yet but soon. Some of my friends knows him as Jackson but I call him Jack for short. He comes here whenever there is a fun trip or he is picking me up for my birthday. He is the best brother in law I have ever met.

Some people doesn’t know what my name means and some people do. Aria means song it is a Italian name also it means that people perform Aria as a opera. I have heard of opera on the TV and I didn’t like it because it was too loud for my eardrums and it was about to explode. People always roll the r because that is how you pronounce it the right way but it’s just ARIA so don’t try and say it the wrong way.

Subjects. people always want to know what your subject is so they can make a connection with you or they might have a different one. My favourite subject is Maths and reading. Some people would disagree with maths because they don’t like it but I think that they are wrong.

I’m sorry I forgot to tell you when I was born well 2005 was the year. It was the year when I could start my adventure. Actually my adventure would be a crying one. I would cry when my mom or my 1st sister leaves me with my cousins because I know them more then my cousins. So the other people in my family would call me a cry baby because I cried all the time.                

Did you know that I go to the kindergarten that is just next to us well that is how I met my best friends there. There names are Miracle and Caroline. If you are wondering who Caroline is she is a kind and also a caring person, Unfortunately she gos to Rangikura school so we never really see her.

Well everyone that is enough about me I now want to know about you in the future.

Also I want you to remember this,

You are you don’t let anybody change that.
