In Health and Physical Education, our hapu have been learning Cricket and Basketball skills with coaches. For four weeks, we have had coach Roni for basketball and coach Josie from Auckland Cricket come to our school and instruct our learners. The children have learned lots of skills for both games. In basketball, these skills include: dribbling, arm bar, stance and passing. In cricket, skills included: over arm and under arm throw, batting, bowling and catching. Both sports got learners to develop their capabilities and curiosities in these sports, form connections in both codes and to collaborate with others.

Sanjana enjoys sports and Physical Education. She shows capabilities in both sports and demonstrates skills she has learned.

In Writing, we have been recounting our experiences. A recount is retelling a learner's experience from their own point of view.

Flamingos

Guess what we happened? Our hapu went to the library.We played a game Of Blindfolds. My experience was weird and funny because i bumped into too many things.My partner for blindfolds was suri.First it was may turn to be blindfolded and suri had to guide me.What was hard About guiding was i kept going the wrong way.Suri could not hold on to me or it would be cheating.you could only say front,back left or Right. Also did you know today,we did the same thing but on the playground.Suri banged me into a piece of log hanging.Then she made me go up the steps and go across the woden wiggly logs.

my great great recount

Today with miss lavakula we went to play on the new playground.you must be wondering why did we go on the new playground Because we were going to write a recount and describe it. The whole of lavakula writing group went to the playground .One of my favourite things was this wheel thing. I do not know the name of it but you twist it in circles and water comes out and falls on A pcise of lag.What i mean by log not any old log this log is carved so the water can travel thourgh.To a path. Then it falls on some pebbles in the front.There was this really cool thing that i was curious about.It was kind of like a door that if you push it down it closes and blocks the water from going through.And if you pull it it up the water goes out Oncs it goes out it goes under a bridge and into the sand in. The sand people or kids blocked the water How i felt:i was really excited and happy because it felt like i was at the beach

I did not do much in the holidays I went to my cousin rajni’s house for a sleepover. First we went to kmart and bought some clothes. Then when we got back home. We did some cleaning.Like the bed sheets.- P.2 After we finished cleaning the bed sheets We played ping pong.It was a lot of fun because we had 1 bat each and 2 ping pong balls.There was also this net that you pull from the bottom and you clip it onto the table.In the first round i batted the ball to rajni and it hit the kitchen bench and then the fridge.It was very funny and we laughed a lot we were getting a bit bored by then so she made me an ice cream sundae.First she put ice cream on the bottom with some hershey's chocolate shell.She also put wip cream on the top with crushed peanuts and a cherry on top.while we ate it we watched despicable me 3.

I think yes we should wear our uniforms to school.Because if you go on a trip to another school you could represent your own school. Example: when we went to the museum we knew where we were Suppose to be.Another reason why you should wear your school Uniform is because if you don’t wear your uniform and a visitor comes in they will think the whole class is full of new learners. Especially the little kids wearing uniforms also just brights up your day even more.This makes you happy then you already are.Talking about it makes you happy i mean you should wear your school uniforms or other why’s visitors will think you are still in kindergarten.

From my point of view i think we should not have gum at school.Because if you laugh or Swallow it you could choke or die. Another reason why you should Not chew gum is because after people are finish chewing it they put it under the table.When Visitors come in they will say there school is so dirty and gross I think it is gross because it has people’s saliva and germs .Also when you touch it,you could get theri bacteria.

As part of our iExperience, we have been learning about 'How the Human Digestive System works'. We looked at the process of food and what happens when we eat. We learned about the organs and their functions. Through Kahoot and multichoice questions as well as a cut and paste activity we were able to learn about what our human bodies does to food and what we need to keep it healthy.

She develops her curiosity by listening carefully to the instructions and thinks carefully about her ideas. Sanjana is beginning to make connections by relating what happens when she eats certain foods and what it does to our bodies.

Learner: Sanjana 
Area: Art - Visual Arts Level 2 
Date: 20.02.18 
In Art, some of the learners have been learning about drawing from their own perspective and what they can see. The learners chose a specific place inside the playground and had to sketch what they saw. We were practising sketching with different lines and looking at different shapes as well as shading. It was not an easy task but learners did try their best. 

Sanjana has been practicing her capability by trying hard to draw from her point of view and what she saw. She showed curiosity by looking for the best place that suited her in the playground. Sanjana was able to work collaboratively with others by sharing space helping others if asked. She is beginning to make connections and use techniques already learned to help her with her learning.
