Today there was a Moari performance in the hall. The Kapa Haka group performed an entrance ceremony.
First the Kapa Haka group introduced what a poi is used for and how it helps with wrist movements. They also introduced their training tools and how it is used, The training tools help the Moari warriors train with their movements with the weapons.
Secondly the Kapa Haka group performed a haka and then Panmure Bridge school responded with a haka back.
Lastly each class went out to play a Maori Game. Our game was called Maui and Mato. How to play this game is get a Reiko and stand in a circle. If they Maui then you go left, if they say Mato then you go right
I liked the performance the kapa haka group did, especially the singing. I also like the game Maui and Mato.

Noval Study | Reading
The Witches is a fictional book created by the author Roald Dahl. This book is about a boy and his grandma trying to get rid of witches to try to stop children from dispersing.
Chapter 17 is about Luke and his grandma trying to give Bruno who is a mouse to his mum and dad.
Chapter 18 is about Luke's grandma trying to stall. She wants to give Luke as much time as he needs to sneak into the kitchen to pour formula 86 into the witches soup.
The last chapter is about Mr Jenkins talking to Luke 's grandma. He can't find Bruno and he's sure that he's with her grandson. He wants to know what's going on. Grandma confirms, once again, that Bruno is now a mouse after a little yelling from Mr Jenkins, Bruno finally pops his head out and speaks.
I enjoyed reading this book and I think its a great kids book.

Touch Rugby
We kept on practising two and three man settles from the past week.
First we practised two and three man settles to get ready for a game of touch. Coach Mark told us to aim for one person when we drive the ball down the field.
Next we played a game of touch. The game was for learning how to play and how to use a two and three man settle.
I found the two and three man settle to be an effective way to drive the ball down the field.

Inquiry
Different types of shelters can keep people safe by using the correct materials depending on what disaster they are being protected from.
When building a shelter, measuring the amount of materials being used is important so it keeps it balanced.
An example of materials used for a tsunami shelter are concrete, chicken wire, metal ties, aluminum, popsicle sticks, steel door, and hard clear plastic.
Using chicken wire is good for putting in the concrete so it can connect it to the other sides.
Hard clear plastic can be used for the windows because it doesn’t break easily like glass and because it's transparent which allows people to see what's happening on the outside.
Popsicle sticks are good for supporting the force of the impact. This material can also be used to anchor the shelter into the ground so it doesn’t tip over. The properties of wood are the shape that has been made.
Not every material can support every natural disaster. Different types of shelters can keep people safe by using the correct materials depending on what disaster they are being protected from.

Inquiry | Model Materials
This week we have been thinking about different materials to build our shelter.
First we brainstormed materials and searched up materials that will help protect us from the weather.
Next we chose 4 materials that were best to protect against tsunami which were reinforced concrete, straight steel beam, stainless steel rods, and straight metal sheet.
Afterwards we decided on how big, small, long and wide our shelter will be.
Lastly we wrote how much materials we needed to make our shelter.
I really enjoyed researching different types of materials that protect against natural disasters.
LI.to prepare order for construction.

Auckland volcanoes
This week we did a task called Auckland volcanoes
Some of the names of the volcanoes were Maungawhau and Maungakiekie. Which means Mt Eden and One Tree Hill.
Then we did a weather activity where we looked up the weather using the Maori dictionary. For example he kapua means cloudy and he paki means sunny.
I got all of the volcanoes correct and I will like to do this task again.
