Athletics

“Wake up Lee” My mum says. You have to get ready for athletics I jumped out of bed with joy “I love Athletics” I said to my mum she replied “What is favorite” “I don’t have one”  I got ready to go school all my friends were there they were all pumped up but the thing was that we would have to wait till the middle block.

The year 7 boys got a teacher for our caretaker her name was Miss Tele’a when we were all there she told us to go to the reserve where we played a lot of fun and cool the first thing we did was tug of war. Tug of war is a game when there are a number of people and same on the other side we won our first and second  game but lost the last one.

Technology

Technology A.K.A. tech, tech is at Tamaki college where there are a variety of subjects like cooking, graphics and hard materials. When I got to school I went into the street and on the wall I saw my name under graphics I was actually quite like it Because I love to draw. My favourite would have to be cooking Because I loved it ever since I was a little kid.

For graphics I had a male teacher his name was Mr Pineda he took us he first wanted to teach us about lines and that lines are very important so he gave the class and I a worksheet about line that was easy. After that I ask Mr Pineda “What do I do now” Mr Pineda “draw anything. After that we had to make a burger box that activity was fun.

It was the end of the term and I was a bit sad but I still have next year and plus it's almost holidays. :)

After we went to the pacific designs and weapons. There were about 20 old shark tooth weapons. And there were some thorns on them to.

This is my avatar it is from minecraft. Minecraft is a game and every thing is made out of square
  • Tip 1. Basics
  • W moves forward (double-tap and hold to sprint).
  • A moves left,
  • S moves your Character Backwards.
  • D moves it Right.  
  • To drop your Item press Q.
  • If you want, you can change it to the arrow keys, by pressing esc, then click options. After that, you click controls. Then you can change it.
  • Press E to go to your Inventory.
  • If you want to sneak press Lshift.
  • Tip 2: Commands
  • Press T to Talk.
  • If you want to change to Creative, you type /gamemode 1.
  • To change to Survival mode, you do /gamemode 0.
  • To get to Adventure, just write /gamemode 2.
  • If you need more help on Commands press, /help.

  • Tip 3. Time to mine.
  • To dig, or cut, or mine, right click. There is a cross in the middle of the screen, and whatever it’s pointing at when you right click, you will hit that.

  • If you have a pickaxe, and when you’re using it and it disappears, it’s because you used it till it broke. So when you have an axe, a spade, a pickaxe, or a sword that has been used, there will be a line underneath it.

Tangle Pattern

Class 1 and class 5 and one big class now so the teachers told us to do a tangle pattern. A tangle pattern is like a  square and you have to weave it and you can never see the start of it or the end.  

First thing we did was get a corner piece or we got a middle peace or a side  of it. Then we had to go on google and search up a pattern that we could put on the pattern. Screenshot 2014-10-22 at 9.37.22 AM.png


When you are done drawing the pattern you need to color the outline from whatever you wanted to with any pen or just color the whole thing if you wanted to it’s just if you color the whole thing then the two colour have to look good together.

I am happy that completed my tangle pattern.

Kiwi Sport Football

Kiwi Sport Football


Every Monday we have soccer with our instructor Sophia. Sophia told us about the rules. She said “ You can’t touch the ball unless your goalkeeper. There are 11 aside. There is no tackling, no picking up the ball and no pushing. If you score you get 1 point.

First Sophia told us we had to warm up so we had to line up and then she told us what to do. We had to dribble with the ball. After that we had to kick the ball away than we had to run backwards, I fell over. Then we had to run forward, we were very tired.

Then we had to line up into one big line there were 4 people in my team they were Sonny, Tyli, Anamei and me. We were Argentina because we had to pick a team from the 2014 world cup. Chile then next we played Netherlands we had a break after we played Germany next we played Swaziland and then we played Mexico. Then at the end we had to go to Sophia and she told us who the winners were. It was Brazil and we came fourth.

Colour Wheel


Colour Wheel

Do you know what a colour wheel is ? If you don’t then this is the right place to be. A colour wheel has primary colours, secondary colours, and tertiary colours they have different colours like blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and violet.   Screenshot 2014-08-22 at 11.46.24 AM.png

In class 5 we had to do a colour wheel, there are three types of colours. Primary colours, Secondary colours and Tertiary Colours. The Primary colours are blue, green and red they make up all the colours

The Secondary colours are green, orange and violet. To make Green you have to get blue and yellow and mix it. To make violet you need blue, red and to make orange you have to mix red and yellow.

The tertiary colours are yellow-green, yellow-orange, red-orange, red-violet, blue-violet, and blue-green they are made with primary colours and secondary colours.

Then I finally finished my colour wheel. Then miss paget went online and showed us a building that looked 3D.zzzzz.jpg

Australian Football League

Research on the country?
The History of Australia refers to the history of the area and people of the Commonwealth of Australia and its preceding Indigenous and colonial societies. Aboriginal Australians are believed to have first arrived on the Australian mainland by sea from Maritime Southeast Asia between 40,000 and 70,000 years ago. The artistic,musical and spiritual traditions they established are among the longest surviving such traditions in human history.



Rules:  A.F.L is a sport played between two teams of eighteen players on the field of either an Australian football ground Or a modified cricket field, or a similarly sized sports venue. The main way to score points is by kicking the ball between the two tall goal posts. The team with the higher total score at the end of the match wins unless either a draw is declared or a tie-break which then will go into a golden point.





Skills:
Understand the basics of the game. Australian football, or "footy" as it is known the ball is also often referred to as the footy is played on a large oval field 135 - 185 meters long from goal and 110 -115 meters wide and has four large goalposts on each side of the field. Points are scored by kicking goals, which occurs when the football is kicked between the 2 middle goalposts, and behinds, when the ball is kicked through the outside goalposts. Goals are worth 6 points and behinds are worth 1 point. There are 18 players on each side, with 3 interchange bench players and 1 substitute on the side. The ball can be disposed of either by kicking or handballing bumping the ball with the fist similar to volleyball, and goals can only be scored by kicking the ball through the goalposts.






Equipment:
The equipment you need for AFL is football boots, AFL shorts and a AFL singlet. The most important thing you need is a mouth guard. You can have a head guard if you want to use one.

Teams:
Carlton
Adelaide Crows                                            
Brisbane Lions
Blues
Collingwood Magpies
Bombers
Fremantle Dockers
Geelong Cats
Hawthorn Hawks
Melbourne Demons
North Melbourne Kangaroos
Port Adelaide Power
Richmond Tigers
Melbourne St. Kilda
Sydney Swans
West Coast Eagles
Western Bulldogs
Gold Coast Suns
Essendon

GWS Giants

Collingwood Magpies


History
In 1857 Tom Wills was  one of the founders of Australian Football league after he returned to Australia after schooling in England where he was football captain of Rugby School and a brilliant cricketer. He advocated the winter game of football as a way of keeping cricketers fit during off-season.
The new game was devised by Wills, his cousin H.C.A. Harrison, W.J. Hammersley and J.B. Thompson. The Melbourne Football Club was formed on August 7, 1858 – the year of the code's first recorded match between Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar School.                                                                                    
Popularity:
In 1857 when A.F.L. was made there were 205,464. Now there are 23,344,735 people in Australia.
