Technology-Science

Yesterday I had technology at Lincoln. It was the second to last session of science until we move onto either Design or Sewing. On the way there and back I remembered to respect the bus driver and spoke with an inside voice so he can hear himself think and so he can concentrate. At science we learnt about how to make electric circuits with the brain box kits. We all got kits each or shared one with a partner and used the instruction manual to make a circuit. Me and poppy made a circuit that made a fan spin around and a mini light bulb light up at the same time. It was allot of fun we also challenged our selfs to make one the advanced ones in the back of the manual but it didn't work out right. Overall I had a fun time and showed my care values.

Get involved

Today at lunch me and my friends got involved. We played some games that can include everyone. the games we played were Jackpot, Jumbo Piggy in the middle and Around the world in teams. Just by reading some of the names gives you an understanding that more than 3-4 people can play. We played with 6 people including me.
Overall I had allot of fun with other people, and at the same time as getting involved I also found out a little bit about everyone

Library

Friday afternoon I had library duty. I remembered to show up on time and help out. I showed all care values and was nice and respectful to all other students that were reading in the library. I helped put books on the shelf in the right place and helped at the desk with issuing and returning books. Overall I really liked helping out in the library, it was fun.

Choir

On Friday we had choir. We practised in the hall that day because next week we are going to perform at the celebration of learning assembly. We are singing "Money, Money, Money" and "hallelujah". I remembered to show up on Friday at 8:45 to participate. I showed all CARE values, eg. Not talking to others next to me. At choir we did some warm ups like jumping around in 2's from 8 or singing 1-5
Overall I had a lot of fun

Technology

Today we had technology. I remembered to wake up and get to school before 8:30 so I don't miss the bus. I remembered to behave on the bus and speak as quietly as I could to my two friends sitting next to me. Today my group had science, we did an experiment on paper towels. We had to find out which brand of paper towels absorbed the most water. First we made a hypothesis on which brand we think would absorb more water, I thought the brand Handee would absorb more water, I knew that because my family always use Handee. After filling out our sheets we started by dipping different brands at a time of paper towels into an icecream container and then shook off the excess. Then we squeezed it into a smaller bowl and then transferred the water into a test tube to measure. My hypothesis was right because Handee absorbed the most water, 92mm. Beloved or not but out of Tuffy, Pams, Budget, Handee and Viva, Handee absorbed more water. Overall today was really fun I like science and even though it's only been like about 2 weeks since I started science I have learnt a lot already.

Peer mediation

Peer mediation today was awesome!!! Today I remembered to show up and participate in my duty and because we had no problems and no sad faces because most of the little kids went to the junior talent quest which decreased the amount of kids. Only a few little kids were roaming around the junior area by them self but we helped them to find some friends and made their frowns upside down. Overall today was better than ever because we helped kids and didn't have big problems either

Choir

11/06/15

Today I tempered to get to the music room on time for choir. Choir is really fun because at the start we play and sing lots of awesome warm ups to warm up or vocal cords. Today we warmed up with a jumping game. What you do in it is jump around in circles going down in 2s from 8. Next we sang a number song which really helped my voice warm up. After that we practiced singing hallelujah, Mexican wave and the national anthem. At the end of the term we are going to be singing hallelujah and money money money. Overall I think that getting up early and coming to school 15 minutes early is worth it.

Choir

Yesturday ( Friday) we had choir it was really fun we did mainly the same things as last week but this time we also got told what new systems we have like when we arrive at the hall their will be peices of paper on a row of tables and we have to tick off our name somour music teachers know that we are here. This week was our last choir practice for this term because next Friday is good Friday! Yay that means Easter is nearly here speaking of Easter...

Choir

Today was the first day of choir. It was so much fun we did a lot of fun voice warm ups. It is on every Friday at 8:45 and it goes on for half an hour so 15 minutes before school ( we start school at 9:00 ) and then 15 minutes more  so we finish at 9:15. Today we sang Money, Money, Money and Hallelujah. Overall my first day at choir was really fun and can't wait till next week

Run Bike Run

Today we had a Kauri Team Event called Run Bike Run. Run Bike Run is a fun event that my school does at the start of the year. Last year we went to a park called Westlake Park it is very close to my house and has a very nice green grass area for games like cricket, soccer,rugby and more, it also has a nice big lake and a smaller pond just beside it. This year we are going to a different park called Haslwell Domain. Haslwell Domain is a really nice place because it is huge and has a lot of places to play lots of different sports e.g: Touch Rugby, Rugby, Netball, Tennis, Garden Bowling, Soccer and more. I play Netball for a Haslwell team I'm in the Netball C team. So like every year all the year 4-8's all walked down in groups it is quite close to our school so thats why we walk. Today at Run Bike Run me and my friend that was in my team tried our hardest sadly we didn't come a place but we showed our care values and had fun representing our school.
