Mikaila Learns about Safe Surfing

Surf Life Saving

On Friday Te moana and Te maunga travelled to the beach. We saw all of the surf life saving instructors getting the adults into the water. As it was so hot we needed to have a drink of water.  But when I got into the sea “Water!” I shouted to my teacher. I  said, “I was as warm as a spa bath.”

And I felt like I was the only one who was doing the activities, then I saw Jade spinning the surf lifeguards safety boards. When I asked sam if I could go and join group two, he said, “No!” I even felt like I was burning hot just like the steaming kettle but hotter than the sun.

After we had a swim we played a game of octopus and I tagged my friends, and I also  tagged lots of kids from Te Maunga. Once I jumped into the water I splashed a huge as wave onto the teacher. Quickly I said, “Sorry!” so quickly so I could keep practising saving people.

At the end of surf life saving we all had to shout out “Thank you!!!” that was when my ears popped. I was so pleased to having such a fun day knowing how to save people’s lives.

   

Mikaila's Triathlon

Our School Triathlon

On Friday I felt like I was the only one there, but when my ears popped because Mrs Williams Banged the two blocks together and that was when I knew when to go and run into the  seawater. Before we ran into the water we had to run in and then drop to the floor and then swim to the woman. We had to swim in the deep end and the little kids had to swim to the lady who was in the shallow so they don't  drown in the deep water.

After we had our swim we had to run back to school and find the right sized bike for you and then we had to find the safe side for you need to walk your bike on. Because there was a huge truck on the side we needed to walk on.  So we needed to go the other side on the road to find our bike. When I got to the finish line Ms Hadwin gave me a chocolate bar from out of her box. When I asked her if there was another one, she said, “No, because there will be not enough for everyone else!” Once I finished everything else I got told to sit on the school deck so we could warm up. So  then Mrs Neumann told us girls kids to go and get dressed in room one.

Swim Safe Lesson 2

                                            Swim Safe Two.                         

Last week, when we were doing some swim safe with Tracy, she taught us things like,” Don't go in the water if you are worried and put your up and shout out very loudly and shout, Help, Help, Help!!”.

The water was as warm as a bathtub in the pool. We were practicing to rescue the person in the water with the flutter board. Some people felt they were sinking like a big boulder. We were floating as a balloon in the water.

When we got in the pool we got a floating device.  Tracy gave us a rope. We had to throw the rope to our buddy to rescue them.

Lastly, then we had to tow them in towards us. As we did it they slowly came to us. We all felt very happy and we were laughing so much we couldn't stop. But Beware that  you aren't grabbed and dragged under by the drowning person.

Mikaila has fun on the Water Slide

                      Action  World                            

On  Wednesday  Room  Four  went  to Action World. The  first thing I did was the  rock climbing  wall  I  liked  it  so so much  because it was amazing.  When  Carol  blew  the  whistle  all  the girls  rushed  to    get  their togs on, then when it  was my turn.

On  the water  slide,  I was zooming down   the  water slide  at  the  end  of  the  water slide.  The  water  just  splashed  into my  face  at the  end  of the  water  slide.

When I get to the end of the water slide I was  so happy   that  I  got  to  the  end  because   it  is  so!!!!!!!!!!      freaky   going   down    the    slide    because  it    is     long.

• Bowls    

Steps:

• Plug in machine
•  Put 1 scoop of kernels in the machine 
• Put lid on. 
• Place catching bowl in front of the machine 
• Turn on machine
•  Be patient while it heats before popping 
• After it pops catch the popcorn in a bowl
•  Eat the popped corn 

Conclusion:

• Next time we need have chocolate popcorn as it was a bit dry.

Today we were learning to add a comment to our procedural text so that we may adjust the procedure if were to follow it again.

Indie commented-It was a bit dry so give it some flavour with caramel, butter or chocolate.

Jade, Franky, Mere and Jamie commented that the popcorn needed some butter to make it taste better.

Liam and Mere commented that we should have made rainbow popcorn.

Mikaila and Lilli-Rose commented that the popcorn needed some chocolate melted onto it.

Kingston commented that the popcorn tasted yummy and did not need any unhealthy stuff on it.

Little Red Hen

Little Red Hen.
 Characters in the Play
 Reader is Lucas
Little Red Hen is Arohaina
Duck is Jamie
Dog is Liam
Pig is Mikaila
 We acted a play for young Year 0, 1, 2 and 3 student at our school. We had to organise the actors parts, our costumes, the setting, props and masks for the characters. We learnt how to learn our parts off by heart. We learnt to practice reading with phrasing, fluency and using our voices like the characters. It also helped us practice reading silently to ourselves while the other actors were reading and saying their parts. The audience really loved our play.

Porotaka By Liam, Mikaila and Mark

Porotaka

We read a Journal Story last week about how to make Porotaki. We had to get flax and harakeke sticks and Mrs Neumann was kindly given some special nails by Carters in Opua. 

We had to fold the flax around our fingers and then weave it,then we hammered it onto the harakeke stick with a special nail. When we blew on the windmill it spun around and around. They also spun around in the wind. We found out that they went around even faster when the  flax dried out a fortnight later. They were an amazing toy to play with especially because we mad them. Matariki Day is such a fun day!!

Mikaila's Speech--"Should we Wear Uniforms to School?"

Should we have Uniforms at school?            

Mikaila      

I like to wear uniforms because when we wake up we don’t have to get up and find some clothes to wear.

Firstly, We look the same. We are smart in those uniforms and  we look cool in uniforms. We won’t get lost on a trip if we look the same. We feel like a team, class or school if we are the same.

Secondly, we can be proud of our uniform. They are easy to wash.

Thirdly, uniforms are cheaper and we can share them. We don’t have to spend too much money on other clothes.

Fourthly, children behave better in uniforms. We learn better if we do not worry about our clothes. Uniforms stop some bullying.

As our school motto is “Together we learn...blah, blah, blah, we should have the same uniform so we feel dressed the same together.

Tiny owl and the Prickly Plant

Today our reading groups were learning to present a play to the class using phrasing, intonation and expression. We can read the text silently when someone else is reading their part in the play.
