Technolegy - Wood

This week for Tech at Tamaki College for Mr Grundy's Wood - Work Group, We have been working on our choosen desings. Before we started making our designs we drawed 8 pictures of something we can turn into for example - A airplane. When we finished making or choosing 8 desings Mr Grundy would check that the desings have wooden joints and that the designs are ready or are ok to use for a desingn. After choosing or making 8 desings we would choose a desingn to use and make, The design I have choosen is a wooden ship. When I first chose to make a wooden ship I wrote a short paragraph about what the desingn I used for, Who the design is for, why have I chosen that design, What/How the design can be used. This Week I have gotten up to the level of making a wooden joint. I have really enjoyed Tech this week because I have finished more then what I have finished last week. Alice.

Blog Post Data Analysis

 

This week we have been looking at how many blog posts we have done each month and year since we started blogging. We used google sheets to make a graph our information which became our Blog Post Analysis. I have worked out the total number of blog post and the average number of blog post.s I made each month for each year. What I found interesting was that I did the most blog posts in December in 2017.

Kiwi Can

This week for kiwi can we talked about what we focused on for last week, We have a new theme which is Co-operation. I think co-operation is like when you work colabrativly together with either groups, teams, pears or partners.

The first game we played was called A's and B's, In this game we choose one person to be our B or A. The person you choose can't know if you have choosen them to be either your a or b, In this game someone is choosen to choose a action for example - Hop. If I said hop you would have to hop until I change the action.

For the next game which was Magic Shoes we were split into groups, In this game one person is choosen to have the magic shoes. The person with the magic shoes has to make sure the person with no magic shoes can get across to the other side with out having to walk. When the person with no magic shoes gets to the other side they have magic shoes and they have the job to get people across the other side.

Kiwi Can

This week in kiwi can we played two games, In the first game we played tug of war. In this game we were split into four groups, Each group had a person to go have a turn to play the game tug of war. To play this game you will need a hola hoop and four cones for four groups of people. Also the groups must have equal people, The cones were used to touch to show you have got a point - ( If you do touch  - the cone you get a point). This is how you play tug of war game.

Kiwi Sport

This week for Kiwi Sport, Which is the fourth week. This week we played two games ( Ki o rahi).

In the first game we played we had to line up around the cones that were shaped as a circle, Then we had to wait for the people infront of us to kick the ball inside the circle.Every person a has to have one turn at kicking the ball, Once that person is done kicking the ball into the circle then that person has to go into the circle and wait for the other person to kick the ball into the cirlcle while trying to catch the ball.

In the next game (Golden Child), For this game we were split into two groups. The 1st group was the inside of the circle, The other group which I was in was on the outside of the circle in a line. Each group had a ball, My group had to choose one golden child and two guardians. The Guardians were inside the circle around the rock, While the rest of my group was around the outside of the circle.
Inside the circle was the other group, They had to hit the rock while my group runs around the circle. If the rock is hit then the group inside the circle has to say motu, If the rock isnt hit then we have to go around the circle and touch the ground with the ball. After all the group is done running around the circle the golden child has to run and we have to run after the golden child.
