Fish out of Water ~ Playing to Win

Aloha fellow readers and welcome to another blog post today we will be talking about a time in my life that I felt like a "Fish out of Water".

The time that I will be talking about is when I first moved schools and came to Hornby High School, I felt like I wouldn't find friends because it looked like they had all made friend groups and they wouldn't want any one else in their friend group and then I met three people, Felicity, Hayley and Tasharn and they became my best friends.

Than Felicity introduced me to her friend group and I got to know each person better and know we are all friends and I feel like I fit in.

Some advice that I would give Denny when he moved schools is don't be one to judge quickly and don't be shy.

Also to try not to get into trouble with students and stay on a certain amount of peoples good sides.

Hoe you enjoyed this blog post :)

Denny & Todd ~ Playing to Win

Kia Ora fellow readers and welcome to another blog post today we are going to be writing about the tension between Todd and Denny.

I think that Todd despises Denny because Todd can see how Alice likes to talk to Denny and Denny likes Alice and Todd likes Alice.

I think that Todd is jealous of Denny and Alice's friendship.

I am certain that Todd feels frustrated that he tries so hard to get Alice to like him and she finds a way to make it non romantic and finds a way to get a laugh out of it.

I think this because in the story it says that Todd glares at Denny when he talks to Alice or when Alice talks to him.

I hope you enjoyed my blog post :)

Playing To Win ~ Reading

Welcome to another blog post for today's blog post I am going to be talking about what I have been doing for reading, for reading I have been reading a story called "Playing To Win " this story is about a 17 year old boy named Denny and he transfers schools to a more posh and well located place.

Denny meet's a girl called Alice and a male called Todd and Todd is very rude and he is very protective of Alice because he likes her, and Denny realises that he likes Alice but knows that he cannot be with her as Todd likes her.

At the end of chapter 3 Alice and Todd are fooling around in a lake and Denny is upset because he feels left out.

I am really enjoying this book and I hope that you like the sound of it too :)

PE ~ Soccer ⚽

Aloha, Today's blog post we will be talking about the sport that my group taught as you saw by the title my group taught Soccer in my group we have Tasharn, Camryn, Josh, Vin, Saia,  Loloma and Raritonga.

Me and Tasharn leaded the warm ups and we both think that it went well and we think we contributed a decent amount of time to the people we were teaching, I think that our team was successful with teaching the class how to play soccer and my team thinks that they listened really well.

Next time we taught the class a game we should set up what we are doing a while before we actually teach the class, I also think that we should spread the teams time out more evenly because one of the teams got like 10 minutes and the other team got 30 minutes.

I learnt that you cannot touch the ball with your hand at any time or it is the other teams ball I also learnt to not allow the rest of your team mates to take control of the whole thing other wise you won't have a good set up and you will not know what you are doing.

Apart from the things we should change I think that we taught what we were doing really well and I am pretty sure the people we taught enjoyed the games.

Here is a picture of the game we were teaching..

Hello fellow bloggers and welcome to another blog post for today's blog post we will be talking about DMIC maths for DMIC maths we were all on the mat and we were talking about what is the pattern in this picture and what are the similarities and differences in this pattern.

Here is the image .....





 here is another task we did we were put into 5 groups. In my group I had Tasharn, Kya, TJ, Alex and Jrae we found this task fun because it made us think about what we were doing and it was reasonably difficult for this task we had to answer multiple questions this is the task we were given...



 We worked together as a group to figure out the answers but for today's given task we were told to come up with our own way of figuring the question out I was unable to do this task in my maths book so I have done it on a whiteboard here is my work..


I hope you understand how I worked this out :)

Lili Reinhart ~ Cool To Be Kind

Today for C.I.P we have been looking at people who have changed the world through there kindness. For this task I chose Lili Reinhart because she is always spreading positive messages and is always supporting her followers, family and friends. She is an inspiration to females and males and supports LGBTQ + . We all got a sheet of paper and were told to answer the questions on it.

Here is my work.

Digital Technology

Hello readers and welcome to another blog post today's blog post is going to be about what we have been doing in digital technology.

For the past 3 weeks we have been working on our environmental issue project for this project we have been creating an ocean lay out, and adding seaweed and rubbish to it to show how bad ocean pollution is getting, We were told to make either an app a game or use the sphero's to create something .

My group decided to get creative and we made a game with the sphero's for this game there of course will be a challenge, the player's challenge is to avoid all the obstacles e.g seaweed and collect the rubbish if you crash into any of the obstacles you have to place the rubbish back where you found it and restart from the starting sign.

All you have to do for this task is collect the rubbish and get to the finish line.

If you ever have the chance to play with it I hope you enjoy it, I also hope that I helped you to understand the game.

Playing To Win

For today's task we were told to answer questions about the story Playing To Win without reading the actual story itself.

I think this book will be about a rugby team who are not used to winning but there team gets motivated and they start playing to win.

I think that it is important to read stories from New Zealand authors so that it is possible to meet them and ask them about the stories. I also think that it is important so that we can understand some of the traditional New Zealand things.

Yes, I do agree with the statement playing to win because it means that they believe that they can win and they are confident in themselves without being rude about it.

I now know that the story might involve physical contact like fighting and it might be about how they used to play to win and know they put there sadness into fighting and how the team at the end of the story wins there first game in ages and they come together again.

I think that I can't say if I will like it or not because I haven't started the story and I don't know enough about it to know if I like it or not but I like a lot of things so there is a chance I will like the story.

Thank you for acknowledging this blog post. bye.
