Matariki

Ki Ora Bloggers Today I would like to share when we celebrated Matariki yesterday on Thursday the 23rd of July. We traveled in our classes and we went in a rotation. There were 3 activities. The first one I did was a stop motion animation retelling a Matariki story. Or we could make up our own. I worked with Brayden, Farhad and Marcus and we made up one but didn't turn out good. We could either use play dough or we could draw our characters in the story. We did this until morning tea. Which was 11:00 and ended at 11:30. At the end of morning tea it was time for our 2nd activity. We had to draw Maori patterns using Maori Colors then we glue gunned it onto a frame of a kite to make a kite but sadly we couldn't fly it. We did this until lunch which was 1:00 and ended at 1:30 but then we have 20 minutes to eat our lunch so we finished at 1:50. At 1:50 we did our last activity which was making fried bread. We had to wash our hands first though. After that we started to make fried bread. First we got a bowl and then put some flour in. Then we put some water while mixing it after that we pulled all the dough out of the bowl and rolled it to stretch it. Then we cut it into four pieces. We split into four groups I was with Farhad, Brayden, Marcus and Brittany. First we rolled our dough to make it longer. Then we sliced it into 6 pieces. Then we took it to the fryer where we fried our fried bread. Then we all took one and went to Bjorn to get some toppings on. I put chocolate hazelnut peanut butter on mine but I don't like fried bread so I gave mine to someone else. We finished near the end of the school day. We cleaned up and then we went home. I hope you enjoyed my blog post. If you want you can comment below of what you liked about my blog post. Have a great day or night and blog ya later!

Cross Country 2020

Talofa lava bloggers. Welcome to another blog post. Today I would like to share my Cross Country. On Thursday 2nd of July 2020.  We did cross country. We were traveling in our year levels. I was a year five so I had to travel with all the other fives. First we went to the station were we could play on the playground or play a game. Me Brayden and Farhad used all the big blocks to build a giant Jenga tower. Braydens grandmother took a photo. We broke it down sadly. Then we were playing with the dominoes. But they wouldn't stand. Then we were playing with rings. We had to throw the rings into the pole to get points. Brayden won with five hundred points. Then the bell rang. It was time to move on. Then we were playing tennis. We had to get a partner then get a tennis racket each and one tennis ball. My partner was Brayden. Then we had to count on how many times we hit the ball. Then we added them together. Together we got one hundred and fifteen points. After that the handball rang. We moved on to playing handball. We had to get into groups of 4 then play handball. I didn't understand how to play so I wasn't that good. The hand bell rang and then we went off to play a blindfolded game. We had to get a partner then get a blindfold. My partner was Brayden and he was wearing the blind fold. Then the person without the blindfold had to guide the blindfolded person to get the most bean bag toys. We didn't win any of them. Then the hand bell rang and we went on to the warm up for the run. First we were stretching. Then we played a game of duck duck goose. Then we were cheering on the year 4's when they were running. The hand bell rang and then we were going to run. We ran, the boys went first then the girls. I came 9th in the boys. then we watched the year 6s race. A guy named Yousuf came first.  If you want here are some photos.
