Kapa Haka!

Kapa haka

E tiriki!Right know we are at the kapa haka festival Singing our first song as the first word sais ,E tiriki.At the beginning I was nervous but know I am so excited I can bearly wait.

Then the  next song took place and we sang our hearts out.THe kapa haka festival Is a time to celabrate the maori culture and all they do for us.I learnt that you can't have die in your hair because it makes fun of the maori culture because when they were around they didn't have hair dye.I feel sorry for maori because they didn't have hair dye so they couldn't eperience hair dye.

I was proud of WBS and I can not wait for the next syndacites to do there song and sing there best to the audiance.I am so excited for Ada to peform her show

Macrame at the craft fair

MACRAME AT THE CRAFT FAIR 

Recently Wainui Beach School had the craft. As you know they do it every year. There are games, sweats, Raffles and a guessing game (how many lollies are in a jar). If you came to the craft fair you might know that Room 1 made macrame.You might think that Macrame is one of the hardest things to do. It's easy really. I really enjoyed making macrame and learning how to tie different knots. 

HOW TO MAKE MACRAME (YOUTUBE IS GOOD TO WATCH) 

MATERIALS

1. A roll of string that is thick and says macrame
2.  Deer antlers or drift wood.  

                                                                  xbcdvxchjdbchbdhc

METHOD 

1. Unrapp the string and Cut 16 pieces of string 1.5 m long.                                                                 
2. Tie a speceil knot onto the antler or driftwood.         
3. Start on one side, hold four pieces of string. Get the two pieces in the middle.
4. Make a L shape in the front of the middle strings. 
5. Go behind the middle string and you have the knot.
1. Do the same on the other side.                                                                                                                                   

Tonui collab

''Wow''.I whisper as we walked into the place called tanui collab.A person asked us to sit down so she could introduce herself.'' My name is Juls.She said and this is tanui collab.

She told us to do a maze with ping pong balls and we had a debugger and a robot.I was a robot first and I had to Follow Millie's orders.

Than we had to do something else and we had to use paper arrows to control our partner.After we had finished we had to use a thing called a maze with dimonds and eyes and we had to use a lego person to go through the maze and we had to right a code using arrows.  

After that we had brainfood and also we had to get a drivers licence to use a sphero robot and drive it around the room.Some people made there's change colour and some made it make chicken noises.  Than my mum arrived and my group had to drive back to school.

Pick n mix

Pick 'n'mix
''23, 33, 63! Damit''. The game went on and I got more cards throughout the game. I was winning at last.It was morning and I was ready to roll.

 Every day in room one we play pick and mix cards to get better at time tables. My team is whetu.

How to play!

1. Take out all the picture cards.
2. GET A DEALER.
3. Put down the card and give it to the person who said it first. 
4. Count your cards.
5. Whoever gets the most cards win the game.

Try play this at home because It will help with time tables like it did with me. 

Skipping

 Skipping!

Every morning Room One gets their graphs and hurrys outside to do SKIPPING, because It will help us improve and get fit to do cross country. Koka Anna would time our skips for 15,30 and 45 seconds. 

My skipping  buddy is Millie because we are a green handle.We have to count each other's skips and write them down on a white board.We use the green handle because the yellow handle is long and we would only have a short amount of time left before the other person's turn to skip.

When we first started we had to have a person that had the same size skipping rope as us because we don’t want to use up too many skipping ropes. Sometimes I do more than 100 skips.

Bridie!
