Blog Post Data Analysis



This week for Maths most of LS2 analysed their own blogs. We recorded the information on how many blog posts that we made in each year, we then made a graph about the information that we recorded. We were reminded to write the labels on the bottom, and the side of the axis. Once we finished making the graph, we made a DLO. The DLO was made for us to add our graph into. We also added an explanation of why the amount of blog posts were high or low. We also added the Average number of each year on the DLO. Last we added our goal that we want to reach. For the explanation we wrote why the amount of blog posts were higher or why they were lower. For the Average amount for each year we divided the amount of blog post in the year and divided it by how many months we blogged in. For the goal we wrote what we wanted to achieve and what the average amount was to achieve the goal. Something I found interesting was that in 2018 I had more blog posts than any other year that I had started blogging.

Drink Driving Message

This week Thursday LS2 got a visit from Constable Cyrus. Constable Cyrus came in to talk to us about Alcohol & Smoking. We talked about what alcohol can do to us, what happens to our body and what alcohol can cause us to do in the future. We were shown disturbing photos of body parts that can be harmed by drinking alcohol or smoking. We were also shown a man who drank and became someone who needed money from strangers. Then we moved onto smoking. We were shown photos of someone when they started using a drug, and 10 years later using the drug made her look unpleasant. We were also told that smoking sometimes help your pain go away. On the slides that were shown their were facts about what happens to people when they smoke. We saw a photo of a lung that was an example of what it looks like when someone smokes. There was also another photo of the lung but someone putting Tar on it. So it meant that when someone smokes to much their lungs aren't as flexible. We had a great time learning about Alcohol and Smoking with Constable Cyrus.

Stretching Sentences

 
This week LS2 learnt how to stretch a sentence using the 5 W's. We made a D.L.O about how to make a stretched sentence. Before we did that we had a go at 2 words 11 minute. 2 words 1 minute helped us writing more information down about a topic and faster at typing. We then made examples of a stretched sentence on a google draw. Up above is my stretched sentence process and how to make a stretched sentence.

Kiwi Sport | Ki- O-Rahi


Today for Kiwi Sport LS2 played a game of Ki-o-Rahi. We already knew most of the rules and instructions on playing Ki-o-Rahi. We got to use the tags fir the other team to rip off. The teams were Taniwha and Kioma. What we did was we were given our tags. I got a red tag. I was first put into team Kioma. Kioma was put in Te Ao. Taniwha were put in Te Roto. We also had the Key. When Kioma had the key (Ball) we needed to try and escape Taniwha and go through Te ara (Ice Bridge). Once we go through Te Ara, We then need to use the key to touch the Tupu. This week Kioma got 6 points and Taniwha got 4. We were very competitive to beat each other. Next week we will be doing another game of Ki-O-Rahi.

Kiwi Can | New Theme

This week for Kiwi Can we discus what we had a chat about last week and what we focused on. Last week we focused on Positive communication. This week we had a new theme. Our new Theme is Co-operation. We got straight into the Energiser. The energiser was called A's and B's. Down below will be the instructions.

How to play: To play be have to be with a bunch of other people/students. In your head pick someone out of all the people around you, pick one person. Then pick another person. With those two people in your head, make one of them your A. Then the last person is your B. Everyone then starts to walk, skip  or hop and whoever your A person is, you need to follow them around but, don't make it obvious that your following them. For your B person, you need to stay as far as possible from them. On the second round everyone need to continue with what they did on round 1 but, they have to ask people if they are your person A. If they ask you and that person is your person A then you are out. 

That energiser was fun as we all bumped into each other constantly. We then went back inside the classroom and talked about our new them Co-operation. We talked about what Co-operation means and What we can do to co-operate.  I think that Co-operation means when you communicate with others or a group and share your information with each other. Something we can do to co-operate is to tell others your opinions, ideas and the information you have. They then pass on that information and it become a very nice piece of information.

Last we got into our activity. Our activity was called Magic shoes. This is how to play the activity.

You need to get in 4 even groups. You then need to have 2 of the strongest people out of your group to walk to the other side of the game area. Thing is that only one of them are allowed to touch the toxic river. So one of them need to carry the other person. Once they have reached the other side they need to run back to get the other team mates. They must we touching in some way to run back. Once they come back they need to carry another 2 people to take over. Once they take those 2 people, they come back and do the same thing. Once everyone is on the other side, your team has finished and placed out of 4. If your team is last your all out.

This week of Kiwi Can was fun. We did our points and got 47. We need to work of a few more things to get full marks.

Tsunami Information, Facts, instructions

\

This week for reading we worked collaboratively to find information about Tsunami's. In my group was Miiana, Sandra, Matthew and Nevaeh. First we started off with writing down the things we already knew about Tsunami's, Questions that we wanted to know about Tsunami's and things we learnt about tsunami's. Then we made a D.L.O about basic information on Tsunami's. The most interesting thing I found out about Tsunami's was that it is a Japanese word for "Harbour Wave".

LS2 READING CHALLENGE | Book 11

Today I have decided to do another book for the LS2 READING CHALLENGE. The topic that this book is under was "Short story". This book that I chose is called Minions. Down below is a small summary about what the book is about. This book is based on the animated feature.


Summary - Minions were born for one, and only one, reason to serve the most evil of villiains. But when Scarlet Overkill sends a trio of minions to steal the queen's crown jewels, Bob messes up... and becomes the new king of England! Long live King Bob!

That was a short summary of the book that I had read. This was an interesting book to read because I know the movie, and it feels like i'm watching the movie but reading instead. I recommend this book because you never know what will happen next.
