Wonder Project

Kia ora koutou last week in Te Ngahere some guest from a company called wonder project came to talk to us about how they have been seeing and experimenting new things that we haven’t seen before. They have been experimenting a red coloured kiwi fruit that we didn't even know about but about this time next year they will sell them at the shop. The guests names were Gustavo and Troy they are two really smart people that are an engineer and a scientist things. What I learnt is you don’t have to be told what to do in life you just need to follow your own gut. Would like to do something like this ?

Amazing Feathers Art

Amazing Feathers Art.

 Kia ora koutou this week we have started a new type of art which relates to Matariki. We are going to be making a korowai from paper feathers that we colour in. We had four different options of feathers to choose from . I choose one that had a pretty difficult design to colour. Reason why I choose that one because it was sort of a challenge and I like challenges..Once our whole class is finished we will ma Maybe you could do something like this?

Fractions DLO

Kia ora Koutou for the past few days we have been learning to properly understand fractions and figure out what the numerator and denominator did. The Teacher explained what the two words meant, The numerator means how much pieces they have eaten or taken and the denominator means how much pieces there originally are. We had to make a DLO to explained how we solved the problems that we already answered. When we finished our DLO we had to Screencastify it so people could listen to it. Here is the video link.

Turbo Touch Rules

Meke Turbo Touch

Kia ora koutou in Te Ngahere week one our new teacher Whaea Shanna taught us a new game called turbo touch. Whaea shanna explained the rules so we could understand how to play, we went onto the field to practice a bit. Before we started to practice each team had to have four to five players. Once we had a good fifteen minutes of practice we got into the real game my team of boys had won all our games. Our teacher gave us a challenge ( our group thought was easy which it was) 5 players against 10, she gave us the challenge because our team was really good we let the option start with the ball. We enjoyed playing Turbo touch, hopefully Whaea Shanna Stays a bit longer this year.

Fantastic Energize

Kia Ora koutou on Monday week five energizer Whaea Gina came in to our class to talk to us about healthy eating she talked to us about the different food groups. There were four food groups such as meat and meat products, dairy and dairy products ,fruit and vegetables and the last one was grain. Whaea Gina gave us a challenge the challenge was we had to have at least two things from each food group. We have created a DLO to show what we have learnt and tell you more information hope you enjoy Kai Kite.

Re-learning Aha Ngapuhi E

Kia ora Koutou for the past few weeks Paihia Kapa Haka Roopu have been re-learning the haka Aha Ngapuhi E. We did not take long to learn the words but it was hard to pronounce them properly but we got there. A couple days later we started to learn the actions some were easy but the other were a bit hard. We have not been saying and doing the right things for this haka because our tutors told us “back in the old days people did not pronounce the proper words and they got lazy and started making their own words up”. It makes us feel happy that we re-learned this haka and we when present the haka we are not embarrassed of doing a different way. Because now we have the same action and Kupu as the rest of Ngapuhi. When we complete learning Aha Ngapuhi we will teach the rest of the school so they know the haka as well. 


enjoy Kai Kite.
