P.E HURUMANUU BASKET BALL TEACHING (LATE POST)

Kamusta readers today this week on Thursday and Monday in P.E Hurumanu my group and I were told to teach the sport we chose which was Basketball. Some of the people in my team were away because some had ESOL anyways first we had to tell them what are the warm ups we were gonna do. We told them to do lunges, high knees, butt kicks and a few star jumps. And today on Thursday we did a mini basketball tournament, this was a successful lesson because everyone was following instructions and no one was being silly. I contributed in the team by counting out how many points did a team score. Something I would do different next time is I would try to lead the warm ups or be the referee on the game. Things that I learnt in the sport we taught is that passing the ball and communicating with your teammate is very important.

My favourite part when I was teaching basketball is that I was actually allowed to play with them.

Fantastic Mr Fox #4

Hello readers today this is the last time I will tell you about the book that I have been reading for my Novel Study, Fantastic Mr Fox. Now I will tell you the next last chapters that I have read, this one is gonna be short.

After Mr fox and Badger got home with the cider they've stolen from Bean, they had a feast that Mrs Fox had prepared. Everyone was enjoying the food that Mr Fox had stolen from the 3 farmers, Boggis, Bean and Bunce. Mrs Fox that they couldn't wait for Mr Fox and Badger to come because they were really hungry. As they were enjoying the feast Mrs Fox stood shyly and shouted "MY HUSBAND IS A FANTASTIC FOX", everyone stood up and clapped at Mr Fox. Then Mr Fox himself stood up and said "Thank you everyone". As they were having a great time the 3 farmers were still waiting for Mr Fox and his family to come out hoping that Mr Fox and his family will get hungry and rush out of the cave.

WEDNESDAY GYM SPORTS

Today this Wednesday in Gym Sports we were split up in to two large groups one group will play tennis and the other group will be playing crash pad cricket. I was in the group where we will be playing crash pad cricket first, but then out teacher pointed at me and my three other friends to go play tennis. So we ran out of the gym and went out to the court and got a tennis racket. We played a 2v2 game of tennis in my team was Lars and the other two are Alex and Vann. Tennis was really hard to play because I don't really play tennis that much and we lost....

After half an hour we moved on to crash pad cricket inside the Gym, the game was really fun because everyone knew how to play. After half an hour in playing that game we moved on to period 4 and did some other things.

Fantastic Mr fox #3

Today in this blog post I will tell you more about the book that I have been reading for my novel study. It is the book Fantastic Mr fox by Roald Dahl the author of the book, and illustrated by Quentin Blake. I will now continue telling what I have read so far.

When Mr Fox, Badger and the three small foxes got back home using the tunnel they've made they saw a large group of animals surrounding around an enormous table, there were about 29 animals sitting around the huge table, they were enjoying the food that Mr Fox brought home, there were chickens, geese, ham, bacon and the other food that Mr Fox brought home he also brought home the cider he had stolen from Beans storage.

That is chapter that I've just finished reading hope you enjoyed this little summary of the book that I've been reading for our Novel Study!                                                                                                                                                            

Persuasive Writing

Kamusta today in Friday we had to pick a question for our Persuasive Writing, I picked the question "Children would learn better if lunches were provided" and I totally agree with it, here are some of the ideas I think why children would learn better if lunches were provided.

Children would learn better if lunches were provided

• Children would have more energy to learn if lunch were provided
• Some of food should be free such as fruits and vegetables for children and food should also be given to children with low income
• Lunch gives you energy, lunch raises your blood sugar level making you able to focus in the middle of the day, that’s why lunch should be provided to children that doesn’t have a lot of food to eat.
• Lunch is also where children get their vitamins and nutrients.

STATEMENT:

For children lunch is very important because this is when they get their vitamins and nutrients for the day.

Some of the food should also be free for all students, such as vegetables and fruits. 

And also lunch gives you energy, lunch raises your blood sugar level making you able to focus that’s why it is good for the school to provide lunch.

WEDNESDAY CIP/GYM SPORTS

Today this week on Wednesday we did our C.I.P Tane Mahuta. For Tane Mahuta we had to loosen up the dirt in the garden, because I think we will need to plant seeds there. That's all I really did in Tane Mahuta because after that I had to go to Gym Sports. Now I will tell you what I did in Gym Sports today, the first game we played was "kick long ball", to play you will need two teams, you can have any amount of people in your team but there has to be the same amount of people in both teams, anyways when you get your two team done one team was to form a line at the very end of a court near a basketball hoop. The person that is on front of the line needs to go on front of the basketball hoop but you need your back facing it, and you need to face the person that has his body facing the basketball hoop you also need to be 3 metres away from the person. The person that has his back at the hoop needs to chose whether he would kick the ball or throw the ball. If they want to kick the ball the person that is facing the hoop will need to roll a ball towards the other person and he will have to kick it, he can kick it anywhere he wants to. 

When the ball is kicked the person who kicked the ball needs to run from the basket ball hoop to the other side without getting hit by the ball you just kicked because the other team will be spread out in the court trying to get the ball you kicked or threw they will get you out by hitting you with the ball anyways when you've touched the wall you need to go back again without getting hit by the ball.
