100 Word Challenge

 Today In HR we had a challenge, We had to write about a picture of a teacup in exactly 100 words. I made mine about a teacup that had been cursed whenever you drink out of it something happens to you but it keep appearing back into the kitchen. I found it difficult to think of a story line to write about. 

Here is my 100 Words

. “Your Tea” Says the waitress “ Thank you”  - Sips it - “Blah” This isn't very goo- ooh actually this feels weird what is happening” 

“ Is everything alright ma’am?” “ Just a question Where has this teacup been?” “ Oh let me see that “ “ Oh yes this cup has been in many different stories it is very valuable and somehow it keeps making it way back to our kitchen”

 “ Whats wrong with it?” “ Everytime a customer drinks it they feel funny and I don't know exactly but it turns them into something weird or gives them a really weird ghostly feeling like their not alive” 

Hurumanu 5 PE Rotation Summary

 Being the last rotation for Hurumanu 5 today we are writing a reflection blog post about everything we have done in the last rotation. We've been doing many different types of games and exercise strategies. We done a rotation were we had different stations that we had to try do our best in, We had a minute to do the most we could in that station. We also played Chinese football were there were 2 teams and we could only move the ball with our hands and the people goalkeeping linked arms and could only stop the ball not kick it.  We played Long ball were we had to kick the ball then run to the other side of the gym without getting hit by the fielders who went and ran after the ball and aimed at the runners. The last thing we done was measurement were we had to measure 5 items by cm and volume. That was all we done for the last PE Rotation.

Woman's Suffrage

 Today for Hurumanu 1 we had a work sheet that we had to do about Woman's Suffrage. We had 6 questions about it that we had to answer.

Here are some pictures of the questions 

PE/Maths Reflection

Recently in Hurumanu 5 ( Maths and PE ) We had been working on many different types of things. First we learnt all about Perimeter and how to measure the outside shape of something, Then we learnt how to calculate the area of that shape we just measured for the perimeter. The second thing that we learnt about was volume, ( depth of something ) We learnt what it was and how to calculate/ measure it we had to measure up to 5 things using our perimeter,area and volume. We also did Heart rates we had to time our heart rate after doing different types of exercise, we tried Resting,beep test and and a 30 metre sprint. We had to time our heart rate after we done those things. That comes into pulse we times our pulse after doing those same things. Lastly we done weight were we had a rotation about different exercise methods and how many we could do per minute. 

 Here are a few pictures of some tables that I recorded my work it.
