Just Dance

Hello, I am going to tell you about the time my class did Just Dance in the

hall. Just Dance is an app where you copy the dance moves of the screen.

Right before Morning Tea me and Mako were told to go set up the

projector and the speaker for Just Dance. We went to Morning tea and

played. Then we went to the hall and got into our group four. My group

was (in order) me, Mako, Rasmus and Angus. 

Our first song was Waka Waka. My favourite part was when we did the

human bike. I am the front wheel and the handlebars. Then we finished

the song with us catching Angus and ACCIDENTALLY dropping him. We

started our second song called Rasputin, which (I think) is our class

favourite Just Dance. It is a really fast song and a little bit hard. After

that we moved on to a song with two people called Timber. At the end I

had to give the person beside me a piggyback.

At the end we did Kung-fu Fighting which was with two people. Just saying

I am on the left for all of the dances. We packed up the projector and

went back. When we got to class we moved into steps.

Aurora Ledership

Hello, I am going to tell you the time I was chosen for the Aurora Leadership course.

One Thursday morning me and Oliver were told to come with the teacher and bring our chromebooks.  We were told that we were picked to do a Aurora Leadership course. So we got onto a google meet. We opened up a slide we were sheared with and started working on it.

Firstly we had to introduce ourselves. Secondly we had to customize a google slide which was our Aurora Leadership journal. Then they made us sign up for this app called burn bright and do two ‘modules’. They were called Leadership and Teamwork.  

After that we had to go off and do some other work. I was glad I was picked for the Aurora course.

First Week Back

I am going to tell you about our first day back after lockdown. We got the

announcement that we would be coming back to school and I got a little bit

excited. So on the first day back I packed my bag and headed off to school. It

didn't look different but parents weren't allowed in.

I went to class after the bell rang and went inside. The teacher told us that we

would be doing the same thing as lockdown. We got onto our work and opened

up the grid and looked at the activities on it. They were about our world and my

earth. I started right away and was going good. I started with the scavenger hunt

and the rest of my class did too. We had to go around the room looking for

answers to the questions on our sheet of paper.

There was also just Dance later in the day.  Just  Dance is an app where they play

songs and you have to follow along with the moves on the screen. After that

was Steps which is a website that helps with your spelling and writing. Along

with that is e-ako is a New Zealand place where you can learn all types of math.

We finished the day with a game then we went home.

Over all it actually was a fun first day back at school

Swimming Sports

Yesterday we went to swimming sports. I competed in all of the swimming strokes. The first one was freestyle BEEP the buzzer went and I kicked for the other side. I ended up coming last, but I didn't care because next was backstroke.

 

I went back to the grandstand. I sat there for a bit then went to backstroke. this was my best stroke which was a bit nervous for me. GET SET... BEEEEEEEEP. I heard the buzzer beep and set of for the other side. The water was splashing in my face, but I kept going and made to the end in third. It was the first two in which was disappointing I still did my best though.

After that there was breaststroke. I am actually good at the stroke it is just that I didn't know that before the race. I got up to the starting block and got ready. GET SET... BEEP!! I dived of the block and started swimming I kept going. My goggles started to slip near the end but I touched the wall and came out in fourth place. After that race I think I am starting to get better at breaststroke witch is good for my swimming.

That is swimming sports for 2020 and my last one at Wainui Beach School.        

Back For 2020!

Hi i'm Robbie and i'm back for 2020 as a Year 6 (yes). in our first week it has been pretty cool with what the teachers have set up for us. Although I did miss the holidays, did you have a good holiday? Tell me in the comments. We have been straight back into the routine, swimming and quickwrites. We also did our time trial for surfing, I made it which was a relief for me.

 We got back into our buzz groups which means there is going to be some more teamwork. In our buzz groups we did a Tension game (we were in top three) and we did a balloon race at the hall. After that we did this game were you had to pull strings to make a cup tower which was a team building exercises . There was also quickwrites, which was Chocolate Vs Cheese. In all I had a good week back. 

Wrapping up Term 4!!

Hi Robbie here

since its one week to go

, I'm going to tell you about

my three favourite things from this term.

The first thing I'd like to tell you about is Athletics day. In the first sprint race I came 3 but didn't make it into the finals, a bit disappointing. In high jump I didn't stand a chance or I got out around the few people coming in last. In long jump I came fifth although I thought I could do better. In ball throw I came 4th although I hope I could make it the third place but yes I didn't.

The second

thing

I'd like

to tell you

about this ad Just Dance and Furniture

Olympics. For

our culture City

enquiry we've been doing Just Dance, as I dance section. We've

been going through different cultures and dancing to their songs.

We have also been doing Furniture Olympics. Furniture

Olympics is where the teacher tells you object and then

the group you want to try and make the thing.

The third thing I want to tell you about is the Turanganui (Kapa Kaka) Festival (the songs we performed and how it went is in the blog post I published earlier this term) I am in the second row 2 from the side. I think we performed well their. 

That is wrapping up the term . I really enjoyed term 4 and the rest of the year basically
