Training and Personal Trainer (Ana&June)

For inquiry we have been working on our strength, agility and endurance.  One of our DLO was the personal trainer. This DLO includes what you need to consider. You would need to train in a opened area and this is agility. The equipment you would need is cones and a stop watch. Training would be atleast for 1 hour. The next activity was based on training. We had to find images of sport that matches to agility, strength and endurance. Our defnition of physical activities is that it means movement of the body that uses energy.

Platform Game - Digitech

Today for Digital Tech we made a game using scratch. We learnt a lot about the design and the controls. My game includes 5 levels, it starts easy then hard. I made this game by myself even the sprites. This was a hard task to do but I got to the end. It was pretty difficult to understand the scripts but I can understand it now. The controls to play the game is the right key and the spacebar. Remember don't touch the blue blocks or you would DIE!

Current Event - Olympic Spirit

For current events we have seen two athlete's help each other up when they have fell over but unfortunately one of them have crushed their ligaments in her knee. The two athlete's were Abbey D'agostino and Nikki Hamblin. They have showed great sportsman ship between each other. They have also showed us how to be a great role model. This was a excellent example and they have been a great role models for sportsman ship. The author wanted us to learn from watching these Olympic athlete have helped each other makes us learn to have a fair play and good comes with doing the right thing. 

Ancient and Modern Olympics

For inquiry I have been learning to compare and contrast the Ancient and Modern Olympics. For our fist task we have to write down our prior knowledge about the Ancient and Modern Olympics. For the Ancient Olympics I knew that Olympians ate a lot of protein. For Modern Athletes I knew that they have a nigger range of sports. We have to attributes Olympic images for our task two Modern Olympic pictures and two Ancient Olympic pictures. We have been taking notes for the Ancient Olympics also the Modern Olympics. One of our last task was to make a Venn-Diagram for information about Ancient and Modern Olympics also what are there similarities. The last DLO we have to make a list of Olympics words from A - Z. 

Warriors

Today we met some special visitors that we would remember. The visitors were Ryan Hoffman and John Palavi. These two people play for the Warrior and which was really exciting. Once we saw them at assembly we were taken away. They have came to our school to talk to us about stuff and we have learnt a lot. As a whole we played different games. The first game was team trivia. There was Ryan Hoffman's team and John Palavi's team. If we got the answer the person who got the answer correctly got a spot prize. The spot prizes were warrior drink bottles and warrior carrier bags. Both teams have to yell out a chant. Ryan Hoffman's chant were Hoffy also John Palavi's team chant was J.P. Everybody yell out and nearly hurt the peoples ears. It was really good to see people having fun. Later on we got to talk about sleeping. We found out that the warriors sleep at 7.00. After that we played hydration which kind of like a trivia. I got to get a signature on my warriors teacher. We would like to say thank you to the DTR person named Alice for getting Ryan Hoffman and John Palavi  to come to our school.

Provocation

L.I: TO consider both points of view / Opinion / Perspectives when forming an opinion. 

To make our informed opinion we have to consider both side of the perspectives into forming a opinion. The question we have to answer was Should host countries have to spend so much money on building Olympic venues? I say no because once they build the venue for the Olympic games what would they use it for when the Olympic are over. My partner said yes because, It showcases the countries, it increases tourism and it bring money / Jobs opportunities to the who wants a job. We have picked a picture of a before and after pictures of the Beijing Olympic venue. 

Run, Jump And Throw

Today for Kiwi Kids sport we have run, jump and throw. It was our second week of run, jump and throw. We played a little game of octopus just for a warm up. we learnt about long distance sprinting. There are 5 basic skills for running. You start of with looking ahead, light feet, stand straight and tall, using your, swing your arms cheek to cheek, bent elbows, keep your body still and run straight. For high knees it mostly needs leg movement. The difference between hurdle relays and long distant relays is that hurdle relays says on your marks - set - go, and long distant relays says on your mark - then bang!.  The position for long distant is that you stand one metre behind the start line for the beginning, then you use the opposite arm to your leg that you are starting with, and look straight.
