Ancient and Modern Olympics



This week my inquiry group did ancient and modern Olympics. We had to record our information in our own word because we would be stealing our people works. After we use our notes and made a Venn diagram to show the different between ancient and modern.

The Magic Box

I will put into the box….
The adventures I had in my past and will have in my future
As well as my tears I’ve shed, and also the joy and happiness I had felt
Also  my first steps on this earth  
I’ll  also put into the box…
The waterfall that I’ve jump off into crystal clear water
As the water make me feel more at home than anywhere else in the world
With the most beautiful sunset with the rose gold that you ever see
 
The last thing I’ll  put into the box  
Is the moon rising over the crystal clear water  
As the strobing glow of fireflies slowly come out of hiding  
Surrounding me as I look up to the unknown galaxy around me


My box is fashioned from crystal and crushed moonstone, with the rushing water from Mt Everest on the lid and the love from my family and friend on it corners.


Its hinges are the toe joints of the flaming  phoenix and  join with feathers from the flightless bird

I shall climb with my box to the highest point of Mt Fuji and I shall run up the stairs of great wall of China, I’ll travel with my box  seeing every single inch of the world.   


This week we have been learning to paint a picture with our words when we write. We used Kit Wright's Magic Box poem to help us do this. My favourite line in this poem is the adventures I had in my past and will have in my future. I like this line because it makes me think about what I have done and the things I might do in the future.

Warriors


Today Georgia, Ryan Hoffman and John Palavi from the warriors came to visit our school. Also we had Alice from DTR. Georgia show us the spinning wheel and it had hydration, belonging, sleep and trivia questions. When they spin the wheel it pick a random choose. The first thing the wheel choose was trivia question and because the warriors like to competitive we were split into two teams. Georgia had to pick between two team so we decided to yell as loud that we can. Ryan team had to yell Hoffman and my team which is John had to yell JP. Some people got spot prizes which were bottles or bags. After that the wheel pick a different and subject and so on. We had a lots of fun

Hauora



This Hauora it about the 4 walls, we learnt about countries that had to go to the Olympics and compare there Hauora to ours. I look like the people that has to go to the olympics has to have more Hauor than us kids

Current Event - The Big Sleep Out

Today for reading we learnt about the big sleep out on the news, we had to do a current event about the big sleep out.We do current event s so we can know what happening around the world. We had to read the article about the big sleep out, then we had to right our information on the current event DLO. I think that people should give some money to the homeless because the homeless people have to deal with rough weather, having to starve for a couple days also to deal with the very cold weather. I really enjoyed doing this because we got to learn about what people are doing for the homeless.

Timetables quizzes


Today we were practicing recalling our timetables at the speed using quizziz. This game is against everyone who joined. The ranked are in order as how much you got for each point. We have a time limit which is 10 second because I came 28 and 24 in the races which mean I need to work on recalling my timetable much faster.
