Winter Learning Journey

For the first activity of the Winter learning Journey, I had to choose one of the sports that the Greeks did in their Olympics. I chose to do boxing. I chose boxing because it was the sport that I grew up around. Boxing has been in my life and that is why I chose it.

We found out that it started with Sir Peter Blake.Thank you to spark for our gifts, because of Spark we have received a bag, bottle, booklet, hat and a pen from spark. Lynne has been amazing and helpful. We also talked about our dreams and what they were going to be. There were different categories, Family, Sport and world wide. Thank You to Spark and Lynne for the awesome prizes and an inspirational message. 

Orienteering

Today was our last session of orienteering . Our instructors were Leon and Elaina. We had to do 2 courses and finish it in half an hour. My time was 21 minutes and 30 seconds. The only letter that confused me was the last letter W. I got stuck on it for 2-4 minutes. I was struggling but Leon helped me out and told me where to go. 

Life Education Booklet

Today we were doing our life ed booklets. We were doing the puzzles and finishing off the other activities. We also learnt about new things like what the systems of your body do in the booklet. In the booklet we learnt how to manage our body and keep it safe. One of those ways was not to smoke and be aware of the damage it can cause to your bodies.

Get Wise With Jeremy

Yesterday we had a session of get wise with Jeremy. He gave us some really good and helpful ideas to get wise with our money. He told us about the cross roads. He said don't always go the easy way, because it isn't as easy as you think. After that we learnt about Spend Some on you (SSOY) & Save some to(SST). We also found out that the Bank was there to manage and grow our money. To grow our bank accounts we need to liken saving to training in sport... the earlier we start growing our saving skills the better off we'll be, and one way to do that is to SSOY & SST. The talk the Jeremy gave was inspiring and something everyone could relate to. Different ways you could earn money is to do some chores around the house like doing the dishes, vacuuming the house, cleaning your room, babysitting and might help with the gardens. You could neighborhood jobs like mowing the garden, cleaning there garden, but you have to ask your parents so you have there permission, then ask your neighbor so you have their permission. Other ways are to Sell & Trade. You could do lemonade, garage sales and bake sales. 

Story Scrambler

This is my story scrambler. I had to go on a website that chose the topic for us, then we had to choose how to do it. After that we had to write our story.

What It says:

 I have been on an awesome adventure with a magician and he has showed me what the importance of being confident and showing respect is. I have learnt a lot of tricks as well. I learnt card tricks and how to make someone disappear and re-appear. but on of the tricks I didn't learn was how to get out of quicksand. My last moment wasn't to be sunk in quicksand with a magician. I was always wondering how I was going to go, but never in a million years would I have thought I would go down in quicksand with a magician. I have never realized that the most easy ways are never as easy as you think. I have always seen the easy things in life and never seen the hard ways. Today I have tried the hard way but realized the hard way wasn't as hard as you think. So from now on I'm wondering if I should do the opposite or follow my gut. Now  I am wondering how am I going to go, am I going to go the way I wanted or one I will never think of. People have said to me that I am always going to be able to survive the big world, and now I'm wondering if they are right. 

Life Ed With Nicole

Today we had our first session at the Life Education caravan with Nicole. We were also taught a fun game by nicole. The number he leader calls out is the amount of claps you have to do. We learnt about some of the systems that the body has. One of them was circular system and that is where the blood goes. Another part of the body that we learnt was the lungs and the heart. The lungs are the part that cleans your blood and makes it more clean for you to survive. The heart is what keeps you alive. We also learnt about the spine and what it was able to do. Did you know that when you are looking at something it is upside down and the part of the brain that helps you see is at the back of the brain. Wrist and your neck is where you can look to see if there is a pulse, just incase of emergencies.
