God knows your secrets!

 Throughout this term, we read about a girl named Esther who saved a lot of people's lives. Integrity is when people are honest and they do the right things even when people are not looking. Even non-christian people can have integrity. Learning about integrity is good because you are able to have a strong relationship with your friends because you trust and they trust you. If you don't hurt treat them like another option if you have integrity with your friends you will have a strong friendship.

Integrity is when you are honest and you tell the right things all the time. I am going to tell you about characters that show integrity. The characters that I am going to explore are Esther, John, and Noah. These characters showed integrity by being honest and doing good things even when people weren’t looking. That's how these characters showed integrity. These characters did the right thing even when they felt angry. Queen Esther is a character in the bible she came from a Jewish family. So king Xerxes wanted another queen when he saw Esther he wanted her to be queen when she became queen he gave her everything she was in favor of half of the kingdom. Queen Esther went to King Xerxes and pleaded to save the lives of her family. She was willing to sacrifice her life for her family. When she walked into the courtroom king Xerxes pulled his gold scepter out and she lived. She did the right thing by speaking up. It's important to speak up because it can change people and it can also help them by telling them not to do that to tell them to do the right thing. Speaking up can also save people.

Noah is also another bible character; he did the right thing by saving everyone and everything God asked him to save animals and mankind.  He listened to God all the time.  He spent a lot of time trying to build something to save his family and God’s creatures. Everyone else laughed at him, yet he kept obeying God. God gave Noah and his family food and a lot more things for saving everything he made. After the flood, Noah lived another 350 years but he passed away when he was 950 years old God was giving Noah eternal life meaning everlasting life for saving everything God wanted. We can learn from Noah. We will feel pressured to stop following God’s commandments. People may even laugh at us like everyone did with Noah. If we have integrity, we will still follow God. 

Daniel, he showed integrity by doing the right thing and doing things God wanted him to do. One day the king's guards kidnapped Daniel from Jerusalem to king Nebucanezzah he ended up in Babylon the next day he was a slave for the king one day the king had a bad dream. One of his guards went to the king and told him one of his slaves was able to interpret. So Daniel had to go to the king's bedroom and the king told him to interpret so Daniel told him what was going to happen and the king was shocked. Once the kingdom got gathered and they had to bow down to the king's golden statue but Daniel and his did not bow down the king got mad and threw them in the fire pit but there was a shining light in the fire pit. That’s when he knew God was real.

Summary

All these characters showed integrity by doing the right thing. They all were good people. Some of them were willing to sacrifice their lives for people and every time they would betray God they would always forgive them and in the end, they would follow God and go the right way. That’s what integrity is always doing the right thing even if they mucked up just believe in God and he will help and save you from doing bad things.

My Terrifying holiday

 

Atlanta                                                          Fishing- Recount  Introduction I was so terrified. What if I fall? Maybe I’ll get eaten? What if I die?  What if a shark kills me? It's my first time. I don’t know how I'm going to do this? oh my gosh! I was so excited but scared at the same time. Someone tell me how to do this! During the holidays I went to my aunt's house on September the 28th.   I got a bit excited when we went to the wharf we went to go Fishing. We also waited for our cousins to get there while we were waiting. We were preparing our rods to go straight away. When we got on the wharf. The smell of the sea was very salty but it had a nice breeze to it. It was very smooth and calming. There was a sense of calmness like a bunch of puppies sleeping.  As the weather cooled down we got dressed in our warm clothes. When we got into Paihia, we stopped to get bait, and then I saw Maketu, Puti, and his family near the bait shop. I said “Hi”. When we all got to the wharf, my family and I grabbed our fishing rods and went fishing. I was still a little scared but I got over it and carried on fishing. Elsie left me and my cousin Hine at the wharf to go to the bathroom. I just stood for 2 minutes then sat down because my legs were still shaking from the worry. I thought I would get eaten by a shark. I  reeled the rod up, then threw it back in till they came. I gave the rod to my cousin so I could rest. Later that day, My cousin went to throw the fishing line in. I walked past her and my jersey got hooked on it so I yelled, “Aria” I got scared and ran away far from the rod. 1 hour later, we had to leave the wharf to have dinner. Afterward, I had a shower and then I went to bed.  Summary, That time was the most terrifying but also exciting and funny holiday ever. I would totally do that again but soon so that is what happened during my holiday. It was one of the best ones I’ve had in the end.

The Ring of Invisibility

Having the ring of invisibility will get you in major trouble. That's why I and Hunia experimented on the ring and how you can actually get away with stuff.

Our amazing bodies

So throughout the term, we have been making and planning our immune and all the germs we have been doing the model making. So we could present it to the class it was very fascinating looking for all the viruses and bacteria with all the weird names. They have it was very fun looking at the bacteria, viruses, and diseases in your body while doing the model making. It was cool making this project.

Our bodies are pretty amazing. Day after day, they work hard — digesting food, pumping blood and oxygen, sending signals from our brains, and much more. There are many things that roam throughout our body and some of those are germs. Germs are found all over the world, in all kinds of places. The four major types of germs are bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. They can invade plants, animals, and people, and sometimes they can make us sick.

My Netball report

 Firstly when I started doing report writing my sentences always started the same. For instance, I was pretty confused it was a little tricky getting more other sentence starters and structuring my sentences. Whaea Lana helped me improve in my writing she helped my report have more in it and so it can hook readers into my report.

            Netball

                                          

                                  Introduction

For example, netball is a very cool sport that everyone can play and you can have fun and also verse other schools and people there are some rough players but we just forget about it. Tai’s opinion for netball is even though there are rough players you can still try your hardest and keep going. 

Event 1

  Firstly Netball happens every Saturday at lindvart park.  , Which, people get there early to train and practice to get better and better for our games.  The netball team can have fun with it and other schools can also have fun.  We can also improve while we train. When it comes to our games we are always better than last week. Event 2

 These people are, who, are in the netball team  Te Ataahua, Danielle, Ocian, Fern, Hilda, Crystal, and Mahina. So that is, who, is in the netball team including other people that can join in when one of our girls is not here. 

Event 3

 There are either one two or even three games of netball for some teams but there are 4 quarters in one netball game. Furthermore, there are some parts of the game that are exciting for some people in the netball game. Such as shooting, attacking, and defending because these three things can also help you improve during your game.  

Finally, ball skills, which include figure eight, drop,n, drive tik tok, and cut the cabbage these ball skills are important because when you play it’s easier so then you get the game way easier. When you know the rules and skills to the game you would no how to play the game  If you don’t know the skills then at least try to learn them. For instance, people who don’t know the skills of netball will probably get pulled up most of the time.  

                                                                  Conclusion

                                            In conclusion during netball people have improved gotten better. First I tell you where it is secondly I tell you who’s in the team. Thirdly I tell when and how many quarters are in one game. Lastly, I tell you about you needing skills and you knowing the rules of netball.

kauri project

This is a DLO (Digital Learning Object) I created. The tools I used were Sculptgl and Paint 3D.
I created this to share what I learned about Kauri Trees.

Here is my voice that was meant to be over my creation, but it isn't sorry.

What I enjoyed about this project was putting it on Virtual Reality and having new experiences.
What I found challenging or would do differently next time is the thing I found challenging was
getting on to stuff and making stuff. The thing I will do is to ask them for help like how whaea
Jackie helped me and I appreciate that thank you whaea Jackie . for helping.
