Little Blue Penguins

 This term our inquiry is on the Little Blue Penguin. They are the smallest penguins in the world and are very cute. Since it is our inquiry topic, we have been doing it in most of workshops. In our writing workshop, we are doing poems about penguins turning into dragons. I really enjoy doing it even though we just started! 

Here is my first few sentences of my poem that I just started:

"I'm waddling to my nest where a fluffy stoat, with an orange coat is gobbling up my eggs. I feel myself burning inside, I'm really going to make him hide!"

I'm very happy with my start and can't wait to do more learning about the Little Blue Penguins!

Gymnastics

This term is the gymnastics festival. The festival is for everyone to give it a go and have fun, but it is optional. At first I wasn't going to do it as I had hurt my arm. But, just when the practices started, my arm had healed and it didn't hurt when I moved it. So I decided to join B grade gymnastics.

Although I am really happy that I can do it, I fell into the learning pit when I found out I had to do a backwards roll. I couldn't do a backwards roll yet, so I was a bit nervous. But I practiced and practised, until I got it.

I am really happy because I have never done gym before, and it is really fun in the practices. This morning we had a fifteen minute practice and I think that there is another one on Friday. I love the gym and hopefully we have more practices soon!

     

Kawa of care

On Tuesday we had half an hour to complete a Kawa of care poster. We were in pairs and I was with Dune.  I had missed out a bit as I was getting my arm X- Rayed. Me and Dune did the big think, solving problems on your chromebook. Here is our poster:
