Group Challenge

This week for writing Mrs. Anderson challenged us to write a response that Siri might have said in exactly 50 words. We were to answer, Why is Kokako Lodge a great place to take year 7/8 students on camp? To help us we used our camp diaries, outside the box DLO, LS2 rubric, and our camp photos. As a group, we took part in the learning conversation, by sharing our ideas with each other. To receive points we were to use the selected language features, which were simple, compound, complex sentence, a comma, correct beginning, and end sentence punctuation, an exclamation mark, simile, and brackets. If we used any of these language features we would receive 5 points. Using 50 words gave us 50 points. Extra points were added if we collaborated, communicated, used the LS2 writing rubric, camp photos, camp diaries, outside the box DLO, and if we completed it on time. Altogether our group totaled up to 95 points.

Kiwi Can

This week for Kiwi Can we had new Kiwi Can leaders. There names were Mrs Piho and Mr Latu. This week for Kiwi can our big focus was called Re silence. Re silence mean trying your best and never giving up. This Wednesday we played games that would be challenging for people. Our first game we played was milimili. In the game Mr Latu had to be in the middle and when he points at someone saying the word we have to do the actions and make the sound. One of the sounds was rah h for Tiger. The next thing we did was talking all about challenging and also giving examples of you doing it. Eventually we played a hula hoop game. We had to challenge our other class LS1 A. In the game we had to do it individual but working together as a whole team. Each cone represented different type of point. 1st cone was 10 points, 2nd cone was 20 points, and the last cone was 50 points. Mr Ogilivie was the only one to get 50 points but the rest of us got only 20 and 10. I got 10 points because it was easier for me to throw. If the hula hoop rebounds and goes over the cone is still counts. Finally we play General Knowledge Questions for short we called it GKQ. Alex was in the middle that meant that he was the master and he goes around challenging others for questions. If the master got beaten by the person then that person that bate the master is the new master.
