Tipping point


A tipping point is when your about to fall over but you catch your fall. 

I learnt how to use tipping points. 

To practice my tipping point the class played a game called Block Twister. The game is basically Twister but we used our square on the floor to play the game.

I enjoyed the the game, but itwas hard at the same becuase I was struggling with balncing

Passing

I learned how to tell people to pass something in Maori.

First we revision these words again: Tenei means here, tena tena means there and tera means way over there.

Then we learned a sentences in maori, "Hoatu te ..... ki te taha maui". That means to pass something to someone to your right.

I enjoyed the activty, but it was hard at the same time.

Maori Questions

 I learnt question that will help me in the classroom.

First I learnt what kua marama which means do you understand?

Next question was kua mutu which means finished?

Lastly I had to sort the country and find the moari way of the countrys name.

I think I need to pratice my questions more. 



Balancing skills

Group A learning about there body and balance. 

What we did first is talking about how to balance. Then we were talking about what was the strogest body part. After that our teacher Mr Ogilvie demonstrated an activty.

First one was finding a partner and start pushing them so they could feel when they weren't balanced.

Seconed activty was about balancing on a balancing beam. Mr Ogilvie showed us another activty with a balancing beam. First Mr Ogilvie fliped the beam upside down and then Mr Oglivie said to split equaly. Then two students had to cross without tuoching the ground.

The last one is about balancing on a soccer ball. All we had to do is to try balancing on the ball without falling.

I felt good and I should practice more on balancing

Analog Time

Analog clocks are a peice of technology that helps tell time.


A clock has 3 mechanisms. The second hand moves around the clock 5 or 4 seconds.

The minute hand is the longest and moves when the second hand completes 1 rotation. 

The hour hand moves the slowest and moves between the big numbers.

 

An analog clock requices you to look outside to know if it is Morning or Afternoon.
