WALT: I learnt how to post on the Oakland's school library blog page.

SO WHAT: Johanna and I blogged about the new beanbags that will be keep underneath the sun shades outside the library. I am really excited for this librarian role because I think it will help me get a leadership position next year and also because I have a great passion for reading.
I am also taking on the responsibility of blogging for the school library page as part of my librarian role. Also I get to write book reviews and put some suggestions up on a special shelf.The value I showed was 'Listen to and respect others opinions ideas and differences' because when Johanna and I blogged we had to respect each others ideas for the school Library Blog post.

WALT use robots at Te Hapua.

SO WHAT: At our first visit at Te Papua we learnt how to use codes to move a robot. I was working with Maddy.We found it very challenging because we were the only year 7s in the group and everybody else learnt how to do some of it at tech. While we had no idea what we were doing what we did was use a laptop to write codes down so we can make the robot move after every code you do you have to plug the robot into the laptop and program it , it sounds like that would take forever but really it only takes about 2 seconds. Maddy and Me learnt how to make the robot do a figure of 8, circle, square and a victory dance.I think the value we showed was represent Oaklands school positively because we respected the teachers and library staff   It was so much fun and I cant wait for next week.

Home learning challenge: Bake some biscuits and deliver them with a friendly card to your neighbour

So I made some chocolate cookies for my neighbour I used the Edmonds baking recipe.

These are some photos 

                    

First I got all the ingredients out 

This is after I used the beater for the egg,butter and sugar etc.

    Before they hit the oven.

    The finished product 

   This is my neighbour Jenna she really enjoyed the them.

It was really fun sharing them with my neighbours. I also went camping that weekend with a few other family's and I shared they thought they were very yummy. The value I showed was use manners when talking to others because I explained what the cookies were about and didnt just shove them at them and go home.

daily fitness

WHAT: I have been involved in daily fitness

SO WHAT: I enjoy playing hockey during fitness because I play it outside of school and I love it 

NOW WHAT: I would like to play captions coming more because I reaally like it an we have only played it a couple times.

Take a stand lend a hand

What: we have been learning about how we can take a stand and lend a hand

So  what: we have been learning about followers supporters and defenders a follower means -

 Do not initiate, but take an active role in the bulling behaviour. Supporter means - supports the bullying behaiver but does not take an active role in the bullying behaviour. A  defender- dislikes the bullying behaivoie and try's to help the target by intervening, getting teacher support ( using safe telling) or providing direct support to the target.

Now what: I am proud that I now know what followers supporters and defenders mean.

Athletics Zones

WHAT: I went to the Athletics zones
SO WHAT: I went to zones for long sprints high jump and 10 year old relays for sprints I came 5th in  the heat for high jump I got out at 1.5 metres ,when I got 1.10m at school so that was frustrating and for relays I came 4th or 5th. What I found challenging in the relays was that the girl passing me the baton was moving her hands so fast that I could hardly grip on the baton
NOW WHAT: Next time I want to practise my events more before I compete in them.
